DOG lovers are being asked to help find a new home for three unwanted strays being cared for at kennels.

Harry, a rough-coated lurcher cross, Daisy, a saluki whippet cross bitch and Bedlington Terrier Alfie, are all looking for a new owner.

The three were picked up as strays in the Durham City area and are now being cared for at Deerness Kennels, in Mill Lane, Langley Moor.

The RSPCA hopes to find homes for the dogs before Christmas.

All the dogs have been vaccinated and micro-chipped. RSPCA staff will carry out a home visit to ensure their new homes are suitable before they are handed over to their new owners. For more information, call the kennels on 0191-378 0439.
