Three dogs with delicious food inspired names are aiming to attract some fellow foodies as their forever families. Skittles, Peanut and Branston are all current residents at Manchester Dogs Home, and hope their adorable names and of course, their beautiful faces, will get them adopted.
The pooches all vary in age, breed and personality, and so are each looking for their own homes with loving families after finding themselves in rescue.
Dawn Bishop, Dogs Trust Manchester Manager said: “If you are a food and dog lover then look no further than Skittles, Peanut and Branston. The trio are all absolutely adorable in their own individual ways and are each hoping for a family and home to call their own.”

Five-year-old border collie Skittles is said to be perfectly named because ‘he’s the sweetest boy’. He has a sensitive side so is looking for a patient, adult only home where he is the only pet, and can go for quiet walks so his new family can help with his socialisation and build his confidence around other dogs.
The centre said: “He very quickly becomes a firm favourite of everyone he meets and will no doubt melt your heart too. Skittles isn’t the biggest fan of being alone and adores human company. He seeks a lot of reassurance from people and would benefit from a family who can be around for most of the day to help settle him in and work on building up his leaving hours at a pace he is comfortable with.
“He is a classic Collie in lots of ways, so breed experience or knowledge, or a family who are happy to research, will really benefit Skittles.” The pup is also a big foodie himself, and is always happy to enjoy a tasty treat.
