LULA and Barny have had to come into the care of RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch because their owner is no longer able to look after them due to ill health.

Lula is a lovely five-year-old Staffie with white with black markings and Barny is a friendly three-year-old black Staffie.

The pair have lived together for some time are now looking for new, permanent homes.

Geraldine Haynes, branch trustee, said: "Barny is coping with kennel life better than Lula. She is missing her owner and not enjoying being in kennels.

"They are both good natured, affectionate dogs, who love company and their walks."

Lula and Barney are both housetrained, spayed and neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and will be rehomed with six weeks' free pet insurance.

Please ring Geraldine on 01886 822083 for more information.

Visit the local branch website rspcaworcester.org.uk for more rescued animals seeking their forever homes or ring Geraldine for dogs on the number above or Pamela on 01905 841354 for cats and rabbits.

Anyone interested in adopting one of the branch's cats can visit them at the new branch rehoming centre any day except Wednesdays, between 11am and 4pm. The address is The Holdings Rescue Centre, Holdings Lane, Broomhall, near Worcester, WR5 3FP.
