A HOME is needed for a dog that survived a collision with a car.

Freddie, a two-year-old terrier cross breed, recently arrived at the Dogs Trust rehoming centre, near Darlington.

He broke his pelvis in a road traffic accident but vets managed to nurse him back to full health.

The trust is now seeking a home for Freddie, who is described by staff as a friendly animal who loves people and meal times.

Sue Embleton, rehoming centre manager, said: "Freddie is now fully recovered from his operation and is enjoying plenty of TLC and cuddles from our centre staff. We urge anyone interested in offering him a home to contact us."

Anyone who can help can contact the trust on 01325-333114.
