Four puppies will soon need forever homes in Norfolk after being rescued by a local charity. 

Safe Rescue for Dogs in Wymondham has been fundraising to take in the pups from the Botosani public dog shelter in Romania. 

All the pooches were dumped outside the shelter and brought in by the dog catcher at around five or six weeks old.

Joy, Nelly, Adeline and Fionn each needed £250 to board the "happy bus" and the rescue centre has now received enough donations to cover the travel costs for all four pups to finally make their way to the UK.

A spokesman from Safe Rescue for Dogs said: "The situation is so dire again at Botosani with pups being dumped daily and few leaving for adoption.

"We weren’t due to take any until the end of August but we are going to squeeze these four in this month to at least try to help a little." 

The sixteen-week-old puppies are expected to arrive at the rescue centre next Thursday. 

They will then be assessed and given time to settle in upon their arrival before being listed for adoption the following week.
