Dog owners are being urged to take steps to protect their pets as the country continues to be gripped by freezing weather.
The North East saw snowfall on Tuesday morning, with two weather warnings in place. Now the RSPCA has put together advice on the best ways to look after pets when temperatures are low.
RSPCA inspectorate commissioner Dermot Murphy told the Liverpool Echo: “It’s really important we help our animal friends get through the chilly weather, and we’ve got lots of helpful advice and tips available for people to make sure their own pets, and local wildlife, are kept safe."
