Daisy, a 12-and-a-half-year-old Staffordshire/English Bull Terrier cross, came into the RSPCA's care earlier this month when her owner's ill health meant they could no longer care for her. But she is struggling with life in a kennel at the Hillfield Animal Home in Stretton, Staffordshire, and the charity has launched a desperate appeal for adopters.Golden oldie Daisy turns 13 in September but is described as being affectionate and full of beans.This softens the kibble and makes the food much easier to chew.
Staff at the centre are devastated she is stuck in kennels during her twilight years without a home to call her own.
Cyan Hulland, administrator at Hillfield Animal Home, said: “Daisy was loved and adored for a long time but her owner’s health issues had unfortunately left her in a position where she felt unable to care for her anymore.
Use Rubber Gloves to Pick up Stray Dog Hair. Does your dogs hair get everywhere, or is it just me? My favorite method for picking up all that loose hair is using a pair of rubber gloves. You put them on and run you hands over your furniture; it’s amazing how well pet hair clings to rubber gloves.
“She’s just the sweetest character who lights up around people - all she wants to do is shower you with kisses and cuddles.
"Apart from a dental check-up when she arrived, she’s in remarkably good health.

"She’s definitely young at heart and doesn’t act like a dog who will be 13 in a few months' time.
“Because she’s finding it tough in her kennel, she’s been spending some time helping us out behind reception where she rolls around the floor like a puppy.
If you've got a teething pup who loves destroying cords, spritz bitter apple spray onto a paper towel and wipe the cord with it. This covers more surface area and wastes less product than simply spraying the entire thing.
"She’s such an affectionate dog, and has clearly been very loved, and we know she will make a fantastic and rewarding companion for whoever welcomes her into their life.”
