He has nothing but love to give - but hasn't been given a chance to prove himself.
Nigel, an unknown crossbreed, has been taken in by the RSPCA's Brighton Animal Centre after spending 460 days being overlooked in his previous rescue centre.
Having been picked up as a stray, the two-year-old doesn't know what it is like to live with a family - but has learnt valuable skills while waiting for them to come forward for him.
