AN animal rescue centre is 'puzzled' why a dog who has spent 700 days in their care has not found a new home yet. 

Connie has spent nearly two years at Eden Animal Rescue, which is near Newbiggin, a village between Penrith and Appleby.

A spokesperson from the animal rescue centre said: "It's puzzling to us why she hasn't been adopted yet, considering what a delightful girl she is.
