NEWPORT City Dogs Home cares for more than 500 dogs a year, and if they are not claimed by their owners, the dogs are offered for adoption.

The Argus has teamed up with the dogs home and will be regularly featuring a ‘Dog of the Week’ to help them find homes.

Our super star Dog of the Week is Sassy.

"Sassy is a sweet little crossbreed girl with a big personality! She is clever and inquisitive, a real little live wire!

"She is looking for a home with or without other dogs, but we think Sassy might be a little bit too interested in kitties to share her home with felines.

"As Sassy was brought in as a stray, we don't know anything about her parentage.

"She definitely has a sweet little terrier face, but where did you get that curly tail Sassy?

"When she is in her kennel, Sassy does a fabulous impression of a meerkat! She really is a delightful, funny little girl, who will keep her new owners on their toes."

If you would like to meet Sassy, or any of the dogs for rehoming, please contact Newport City Dogs Home on 01633 290902
