Last week how animal-loving Scot, James Barton launched a campaign to find forever homes for seven adorable puppies he found abandoned by the side of a road in Saudi Arabia.
The electrician came across the young dogs without their mum while working at a site in Riyadh around two weeks ago.
The 29-year-old immediately fell in love with the pups and knew he needed to get them off the streets.
It is unclear exactly what their breed is, but James says strays in the country are normally known as 'desert dogs'.
With Save the Saudi Seven, James hopes to bring Cathy, Betty, Smeego, Kobe, Hassan, Hamish and Calton (named after James' home town) back to Scotland.
