'Britain's loneliest dog' rescued after living with domestic abuse spends 500 days seeking new home

A "playful and affectionate" dog rescued after living in a home where there was domestic abuse has spent more than 500 days looking for his forever home. Charlie, a beagle cross, has been dubbed "Britain’s loneliest dog" after prospective new owners skipped over him.

Workers at the the RSPCA Brent Knoll Animal Centre have been left baffled as to why nobody seems to want the nine-year-old crossbreed. Now they have put out a special appeal to find the "shy but sweet" pet a new home, reports Somerset Live.

Charlie arrived at the centre in September 2021, and has remained there ever since. He came into the rescue shelter from a home where there was domestic abuse and confrontation.
