A home is needed for a greyhound who was found abandoned.

The male dog, called Snowy, was found about six months ago.

Since then, Snowy, who is about 12 months old, has been at Deerness Kennels, in Langley Moor, County Durham.

Snowy is white with black patches and has been vaccinated and neutered.

Linda Forsythe, from Deerness Kennels, said Snowy was a lovely dog, but he can be quite strong, so his new owner would need to be used to bigger dogs.

For more information, call the kennels on 0191-378-0439, or the RSPCA on 0191-384-0269.
