All dogs deserve a loving family. Sadly, many homeless and abandoned adult dogs end up waiting in kennels for years for the right person to come along. Some people overlook cross-breed and mixed-breed dogs in favour of pedigree pure breeds.But these dogs from Dogs Trust Merseyside Rehoming Centre show beyond any doubt that cross-breed dogs can be just as beautiful as pedigree dogs. In fact, these days, 'designer' cross-breeds like cockapoos and puggles are often highly coveted.Adopting a cross-breed dog can be very rewarding. These dogs are totally unique and bring together different traits and characteristics from a blend of different breeds. Furthermore, they tend to have increased genetic diversity, which can contribute to better overall health and longevity.We've made a list of 10 cross-breed dogs who are in desperate need of homes. People who are interested in adding one of these dogs to to their family are asked to register to adopt with the Dog's Trust.You will be asked to provide details about your home, your lifestyle and the dogs you are interested in. You will also be asked to select a rehoming centre. Afterwards, the Dog's Trust team will review the application and contact you within seven days to talk about your dog search.The Trust retains all applications it receives for three months during which time it will be used to scope out the most suitable pet from your chosen centre. After a match is made, you will be invited to meet the dog at your chosen rehoming centre. Some of the dogs will need to meet prospective owners several times to see if they are compatible.If no dog matching your requirements becomes available during the three-month time period, however, you may be asked to apply again. After adoption, the Trust will keep in touch to see how you and the dog are doing.
