AN 18-month-old labrador cross called Josie is looking for a new home.

She is being cared for by the National Animal Sanctuary Support League at Sadberge, near Darlington, after her its owners started full-time jobs and could no longer give her the attention she needed. Pauline Wilson, from the National Animal Sanctuary Support League, said: "She is a lovely dog and would make a great family pet."

Anyone interested in giving Josie a home is asked to call (01325) 321855 or 07748 268822
