PUPPY LOVE COMES TO DOGS TRUST BALLYMENA
Tiny pups seek big love.
Staff at Dogs Trust Ballymena are currently caring for eight adorable Retriever cross puppies. The cuties were brought to the centre a couple of weeks ago having been handed over as part of an unwanted litter and they are now ready to find homes.
The pups - three boys and five girls – called Rooney, Colleen, Posh, Becks, Dawson, Anna, Hesky and Chantelle are just seven weeks old. They aren’t ready to show off their fancy footwork just yet but staff expect that, like most dogs, they will grow up to be football fanatics and enjoy some paw-paw-two action.
Dogs Trust Ballymena Centre Manager Mary Carney comments:
“These puppies really are a bundle of joy and our team are dedicating every spare minute to caring for them. We usually look to rehome pups when they’re eight weeks old so these little lovelies are pretty much ready to find their forever families. Visitors are welcome to come along to the centre between 12pm and 4pm every day except Friday to meet our fabulous dogs.”
Although staff at Dogs Trust Ballymena absolutely love having pups at the centre, the charity would like to urge people to get their dogs neutered. As well as providing many health benefits – such as protecting against certain forms of cancer – neutering prevents unplanned litters of puppies adding to the already high numbers of unwanted dogs in the country.
If you think you can offer a lovely new home to one of the pups or to another of Dogs Trust Ballymena’s canine residents, please get in touch on 028 2565 2977.
Dogs Trust cares for over 16,000 stray and abandoned dogs each year through its network of 17 Rehoming Centres nationwide. For more information about the charity’s work please visit
