The fourth dog of Christmas
The fourth dog in our Twelve Dogs of Christmas series is a wonderful labrador looking for a brand new home


Next up in our Twelve Dogs of Christmas series with Dogs Trust is the beautiful black Labrador Holly.
The lovely Holly is only two years old and very bright although slightly shy at first. With eyes that would melt any heart, Holly is looking for a new family to help give her a fresh start.

Dogs Trust Snetterton Supporter Relations Officer Kate Brewster describes Holly as ‘an affectionate but shy lady, who can be a bit reserved until she gets to know you.
‘She would appreciate a patient family that can take the time to help her settle in and find her feet. She is a bright girl who knows her basic commands and true to her breed is easily motivated by food!
‘Holly likes a routine so would prefer a family that can offer her some sort of structure. She needs to live with a calm confident dog who can aid her settling in and she would also like a feline-free home.
‘She is a lovely girl and we're certain that in the right home she will thrive.'

If you think that Holly could be the dog for you please contact Dogs Trust Snetterton on 01953 498 377 or visit her and the team at North End Road, Snetterton, Norfolk, NR16 2LD.
We think all dogs deserve a wonderful home but they are a big responsibility, so please remember not to pick up a dog this Christmas unless they can be financially supported and receive the time and devotion they require.
If you would like to help Country Life and Dogs Trust to spread the message that a dog is for life, not just for Christmas, why not get involved with the Dogs Trust #presspaws campaign.
