Six puppies found dumped beside a wheelie bin shelter have been named after some of Santa's flying reindeer.

The six-week-old crossbreeds were found in a plastic box and handed in to the Scottish SPCA's Glasgow care centre on Wednesday.

Staff named the dogs Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet and Cupid.
