🐾 **MEET EDDIE!** 🐾

Just look at this handsome boy! 😍

10-month-old Eddie is a gorgeous Chocolate Labrador who is on the lookout for a loving forever home.

As you'd expect from a young Labrador, Eddie has lots of learning and growing to do! He's a clever boy who can be a little nervous when faced with new things, but with time, patience and encouragement, he soon finds his feet and gains confidence.

Eddie will love a home where he can enjoy plenty of adventures, continue his training and keep his clever brain busy. Enrichment, fun training sessions and learning new skills will all help him channel his energy and reach his full potential.

Eddie is looking for an active family who have plenty of time, love and enthusiasm to dedicate to a young Labrador. In return, you'll have a wonderful companion to share life's adventures with! ❤️

Could Eddie be the missing piece of your family?

🐾 **MEET CHERRY!** 🐾

You may remember our lovely C Kittens, who have been busy heading off to their forever homes... well, now it's time to introduce you to their beautiful mum!

This is Cherry, a gorgeous 2-year-old girl who has been a brilliant mum to her little ones. Now all her babies have found their families, it's finally Cherry's turn to find someone to love her! ❤️

Cherry is ready to put motherhood behind her and enjoy life as a much-loved pet. She'd love a home with cosy spots to snooze, adventures to enjoy and plenty of fuss and attention.

She could live with children and would love access to the outdoors once she's settled in. We think a rural home would be particularly suited to her, giving her the opportunity to explore and enjoy the great outdoors.

After being such a wonderful mum, we think it's only fair that Cherry gets to be the centre of attention for a change! 🥰

🏡 **Could you offer Cherry the happy ever after she deserves? Get in touch with our team to find out more about adopting her!**

💙 **MEET THE MARVELLOUS MARSHALL!** 💙

Every older dog deserves a place to call home, and lovely Marshall is hoping his retirement home is just around the corner. 🐾

Through no fault of his own, this charming older gentleman has found himself looking for a new family. He's dreaming of a peaceful rural home where he can enjoy gentle strolls, cosy naps and, most importantly, plenty of love and attention.

Marshall is looking for:
🐾 A home where he can be the only dog.
🐾 A family with older children.
🐾 A peaceful environment where he can enjoy a quieter pace of life.

Could you be the one to give Marshall the happy retirement he deserves?

Happy Halloween from all of us at Animal Rescue Cumbria! 🐾🧡

🎃 We asked our residents to show us their best scary faces for Halloween…👻

From spooky stares to some seriously scary smiles, our residents have been getting into the Halloween spirit! 🧡🖤

A special mention goes to Ben, who might just have won the competition with his very own Halloween grin! 😂🦷 Those bottom teeth certainly make for a memorable smile!

We think they're all more adorable than terrifying, but we'll let you be the judge! 👀

And if any of these little monsters are calling to you why not go to our website and learn a bit more about them!

🐾Introducing... LUCKY! 🐾

Our bouncy young Labrador Retriever X who is hoping to find his very own forever family. He is a friendly, playful and affectionate boy who absolutely loves people and enjoys spending time with them. He's inquisitive with plenty of enthusiasm for life and affection to share.

🏡What Lucky is hoping for:

🐾 Plenty of daily exercise, walks and opportunities to explore.
🐾 Mental stimulation & enrichment activities to keep his clever brain busy.
🐾 Patience and understanding while continuing his training.
🐾 Plenty of affection and quality time with his family.
🐾 Regular grooming and ear care.
🐾 An understanding owner who appreciates that young dogs need time, guidance and consistency to mature into well-rounded adults.

💙As a young Labrador Retriever X, Lucky has the potential to be an active, intelligent companion. Both breeds are generally energetic, people-oriented and keen to learn. They often love exploring, sniffing, playing and having a job to do!
He has lots to learn, but with the right guidance, love and understanding, we believe he has all the potential to become a wonderful dog.
