A 14-year-old Staffy found malnourished, dehydrated, scared and alone has been rescued by an animal rescue and rehoming charity in Cornwall.

Gerry stepped foot through the doors of The National Animal Welfare Trust (NAWT) in Hayle last week.

Teams there say he has lumps, rotten teeth, a missing toe and potentially so much more - but they need full blood tests to find out exactly what they are dealing with long term.

A JustGiving page has been set up to 'Make Gerry Merry Again' and help with his ongoing care and vet bills.

NAWT Cornwall say they're working hard to make life as amazing as possible for Gerry, with plenty of cuddles, walks, food, treats and more.
