An unwanted puppy can’t find a new owner because he loves playing in MUD too much.
The pooch, called Bronson, keeps getting overlooked due to his grubby habit.
He has been looking for a family to take him in for 250 days, over eight months.
Prospective owners have been warned they will have to constantly clean up the one-year-old pooch’s dirty paw prints.

Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Bronson was abandoned in Manchester and is currently being looked after by the RSPCA.
He is currently at its Preston & District Branch.
Centre manager, Ashleigh Kay said: “Bronson is a big, bubbly bundle of fun, a real gentle giant and a joy to be around.
“He is confident and happy to meet new people and loves rolling around in the mud after, and showing his belly off with a big smile on his face.

“So dirty pawprints are something his new owners are quite likely to have to deal with.”
She added: “Sadly he was abandoned as a puppy so he didn’t have the training or socialisation that most dogs his age would have received.
“Although he’s made great progress in RSPCA care and now knows his name and basic commands.

“We work closely with other centres to give animals the best possible chance of finding a home and we’re really hoping Bronson’s move to Lancashire will help him find his perfect match.
“As he’s only a young dog with the rest of his life ahead of him.”
Bronson was previously at the RSPCA’s Warrington, Halton & St Helens Branch.
Katie Buckley, Animal Care Manager there, said: “Every time someone came to see a dog, Bronson would sit in his kennel with such a sad, hopeful face.
“Only to watch people walk past and choose another one which wasn’t him.
“He was adopted once but returned to us because of his boisterous nature, and after that, we had no more applications for him.”
