Adorable puppies looking for new homes

These adorable puppies could make the perfect pets.

The seven puppies are being looked after at Moorland Kennels and Cattery at Condover, near Shrewsbury, where their mum, Staffordshire Bull Terrier Jay, has been looked after since being abandoned at a dog pound.

The three-week-old puppies, which are believed to be either pure Staffordshires or a cross-breed, have already started walking around and playing with small toys.

Sue Tipton, proprietor of the kennels, said: "They will probably be ready to rehome when they are about 10 weeks old.

"We like to have them fully vaccinated before they move on to their new homes. They are absolutely fine. They all have their eyes open and are walking around and are starting to play with tiny teddies.

"Being puppies they will need somebody around the majority of the time and will need an energetic home with them being youngsters.

"Staffies do make such wonderful, loving, loyal pets."

Jay, who is two, needed to have a Caesarian section to give birth to the puppies.

"We knew their mum was pregnant when she came in. She was abandoned and an urgent appeal was put out for a resident or foster home to take her," added Mrs Tipton.

The seven were later taken in to the kennels and have been named George, Dylan, Albert, Ronny, Amber, Suzie and Sarah.
