Fourteen dogs are looking for forever homes with owners who can give them comfort, warmth and a stable environment.
In return, humans can expect a four-legged friend for life who will not only enrich their household but also their health.
It’s thanks to the dedicated care of the RSPCA that rescue animals are given a chance of happiness. Some arrive at shelters from wretched backgrounds where they have been neglected or injured and helping them on the road to recovery takes time, patience and money.
RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire rehabilitates and rehomes around 600 neglected, abandoned and unwanted animals each year. Part of the national charity, the self-funding branch raises money for animal welfare on the patch which it serves.

13. Arthur
Arthur is a two-year-old German shepherd. A bright spark who loves playing games, he will need to be trained in how to sit. Arthur could live with secondary school children and maybe a dog but not a cat. Photo: RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire
14. Missy
Missy is a two-year-old American bulldog. A shy dog, she will need an experienced owner and some basic training. Missy would prefer an adult only home where she is the only four-legged resident. Photo: RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire
15. Ben
Ben is a 10-year-old Border collie. He loves going for walks but is not always comfortable around other dogs. Ben's ideal home would be in a semi-rural location and living with adults where someone could be around for most of the day. Photo: RSPCA Chesterfield and North Derbyshire
