A rescue dog that has spent more than 1000 days at a shelter has made a birthday wish to find a new home.

Staffordshire bull terrier Casper celebrated his 11th birthday in the care of Dogs Trust Glasgow.

As well as playing with his favourite toys and spending time with his favourite staff, he was also treated to a special birthday cake made entirely from dog-friendly ingredients.

Although he wasn't given candles to blow out, his canine carers made a wish to find him a new family.

Sandra Lawton, rehoming centre manager at Dogs Trust Glasgow, said: "We like to make a fuss over birthdays, especially those like Casper who have been with us a bit longer.

"All our canine residents deserve to feel loved and nothing provides this more than spending time with your favourite people, enjoying some delicious home baking.

"We've all got our fingers, and in Casper's case paws, crossed that this is his lucky year and that his new retirement home is just around the corner."
