An appeal to home a dog who has been at a rescue centre for 540 days has resulted in ‘a lot of applications’ from people hoping to adopt him, said the RSPCA.
Charlie, a nine-year-old crossbreed, is being looked after at Brent Knoll RSPCA, near Burnham-on-Sea in Somerset.
Andy Cook, a training and behavioural advisor, said he was brought in after a change in the family’s circumstances.
He said the cost of living crisis meant centres were ‘full to brimming with pets in need of adoption’.
Mr Cook said: ‘Charlie spends a lot of time with staff and joins us on break times… we all enjoy spending time with [him] but know in our hearts he really needs a proper home to call his own.’

‘He is so loving and affectionate and a pleasure to be around’, according to BBC News.
Charlie has also been ‘negatively impacted’ by an unstable environment in his previous home, per the Weston Mercury.

He said Charlie would suit a person, a couple or a family who had older children as he can be a challenge around other dogs.
‘He just needs a loving home where he will get all the care and attention he deserves,’ he added.

‘By freeing up space we can help more animals in need, so we would ask anyone interested in adopting a pet to also view the RSPCA’s Find a Pet webpage’.
Charlie is said to be highly affectionate with people he’s familiar with and craves contact.
He is also described as playful – he enjoys squeaky toys, as well as running around and rolling around on the floor with his toys.
