National charity RSPCA have several loving dogs available for adoption. These pooches are looking for a forever home after coming into the care of the charity.
Some were abandoned and some were rescued but all of them will likely thrive when given love and made to feel like a part of the family.
Dogs are caring and loyal animals but might need some work initially as they have to house trained and socialised. Whether you have had a dog previously or not - you are likely to find a pooch that fits your level of experience.
You are also likely to find a pet that would match your lifestyle. For instance, if you are an active person a high-energy breed of dog is likely going to work best for you.
For others, who are less active, a dog that requires just a couple of walkies and few hours of exercise in a day would be ideal.
Here are seven among the dozens of dogs that are up for adoption at RSPCA Birmingham:
5. Rex
New owners will need to allow him time to settle into his new home. Basic obedience as well as housetraining will need to be done with him. New owners will need to continue to grow his confidence and bring out his wonderful loving and playful character. Rex would need to be the only animal in the home. He is a Lurcher.

6. Tyson
Tyson can be aloof at times and likes his own space but loves treats and going for walks. Breed experience would be ideal if not breed research is needed . Tyson would need to be the only animal in the home but could live with children age 10 and over who would understand when he needs his space. He is an American Akita.

7. Poppy
She is a Boxer crossbreed and a playful and inquisitve girl who loves fuss and attention from her friends. New owners will be expected to visit Poppy several times at the centre to ensure she has begun to bond, this will make her transition into a new home so much easier for everyone.
