Susan Grief said on the centre’s Facebook page: “My daughter and I came down, so many lovely dogs and cats, hope they all find a loving family home.

“We already have two dogs or we would have been interested.

"There were so many we loved, it would be a hard choice."

"And to our volunteers, what can I say they were all superstars and to you, our supporters, thank you.

"We can't do what we do without any of you and it meant so much to see so many people coming together to support us.

"We raised nearly £900 and had over 30 rehoming applications in just four hours.

"So from myself and all the animals, thank you."
