From energetic companions looking for outdoor adventures to affectionate pets eager for a cosy place to settle down, the dogs currently in the charity’s care are all waiting for their forever homes.
Here’s a look at five of the dogs at the RSPCA’s Great Ayton branch hoping to find their perfect match.

Kassie is a five-year-old Border Collie looking for a loving forever home after being rescued from unsuitable conditions. The friendly and affectionate dog could live with children aged 12 and over and may also be able to share her home with another dog.
Like most Border Collies, Kassie enjoys exercise and mental stimulation and would benefit from owners who can spend plenty of time with her.
Mitsy

Mitsy is a sweet senior lurcher, around 11-years-old, searching for a loving new home after arriving at the centre with her companion, Sox.
Described as gentle and sensitive, she enjoys plenty of affection and can usually be found curled up on a comfy bed or sofa. Mitsy could live with children of primary school age and may be able to share her new home with another dog, or even be rehomed alongside Sox.
She would suit a home where someone is around for much of the day and where she can enjoy the comfort and companionship she loves.

Sox is a nine-year-old Lurcher who may be a senior dog, but is still full of life. Staff say the he is “young at heart” and has become increasingly playful since arriving at the centre, enjoying toys, interaction with handlers and zooming around enclosed paddocks.
Sox could live with children of primary school age and may also be able to share a home with another dog, or be rehomed with Mitsy. He is looking for a home with plenty of space where he can continue to enjoy life and show off his playful side.
Stella

Stella is a two-year-old American Bulldog cross searching for a second chance after an abusive start in life.
Despite her difficult past, staff describe her as a sweet, affectionate dog who loves people and enjoys nothing more than cuddling up on the sofa. Stella is full of energy, loves toys and treats, and would benefit from gentle, reward-based training.
She could live with secondary school-aged children but would prefer to be the only pet in the home. Stella also requires a specialist urinary diet to help manage an ongoing health condition.
Marley

Marley is a three-year-old Greyhound looking for a patient home where he can continue to build his confidence.
The handsome youngster arrived at the centre significantly underweight but has since made a full recovery and is now ready to find his forever family. Staff say Marley walks well on the lead, settles nicely indoors and should eventually be comfortable being left for short periods.
He would be best suited as the only pet in a household and is looking for owners willing to continue his training around other dogs. Described as a sweet-natured dog who has been through a lot, Marley is hoping for a calm home where he can finally relax and enjoy life.
