A HIT Channel 4 show is looking for animal lovers who can offer a loving home to a rescue dog.

TV production company Five Mile Films is making a new series of the popular show The Dog House and it is on the hunt for people in Brighton and Hove to take part.

The show is made with animal charity Wood Green, based in Cambridgeshire, who specialise in matching rescue dogs with would-be owners.

The Dog House follows the rehoming process, getting to know the characters and histories of the rescue dogs, people from different walks of life and watching the beginnings of new relationships forged between members of the public and their furry new friends.

A spokesman for Five Mile Films said: "In previous series we found there were many reasons people might be considering bringing a dog into their life – loneliness, extra company for a child, to encourage exercise and to live in the moment more to name a few.

"We are currently searching for people who are thinking about rehoming a rescue dog, and who would be up for sharing their various reasons for doing so."
