Pets need places: Could you settle down with Smokey, or be the ivory to Ebony?

Smokey and Ebony are in need of loving owners

Smokey is a very gentle four- to five-year-old lurcher dog who came in from a local home.

He gets on well with people and other dogs.

Smokey enjoys going out with the volunteers at the rescue centre – he walks calmly on the lead and is then happy to settle down for a nap.

He would not mind spending a few hours on his own if his new owner worked part time. Ebony is a very friendly 18-month-old female. She has now been neutered and had all her vaccinations and is microchipped.
