AN animal shelter is appealing to find a friendly young pup his forever home.

Danaher Animal Home is looking for a family for 12-month-old lurcher Charlie.

A spokesman said: "Charlie is a super-friendly boy who loves meeting both people and dogs.

"He has lots of energy and therefore is looking for an active family who can take him on lots of adventures.

"His favourite activity is to run around off lead in a secure area so would benefit from being in a home that has a safe and secure garden for him to run around in throughout the day.

"Charlie responds well to training and already knows 'sit'.

"He will require training within the home as well as regular socialisation and plenty of positive experiences as he grows up.

"If you would like anymore information about Charlie then please get in contact with our reception or if you are interested in adoption please fill in an interest form."
