Could you take a DAWGdog for a walk?


Our dogs are very lucky as we have fab volunteer dog walkers
(Lianne, Barry, Sara and Jane)
who take them out for very long walks, training and socialisation.

This also means that we get to know what they are like in different enviroments.
They are far more socialised when they go to their new homes.
By the time they have been on buses, taken car rides, gossiped with people in shops,
had weekends away watching tv with Lianne (who always lets them have the best spot to sit)
been taught manners and how to behave with Sara,
had a good hike to burn off pent up energy with Barry and Jane,
and visited coffee shops for a cuppa they are very different dogs to the ones that arrived into the Rescue.

This is why we do not home our dogs quickly.
We like to get know them a little more.

If you feel you could help by walking a dog or fostering even for a weekend please phone the Rescue on 01202 380467

Could you help foster a rescued dog?

We are desperately short on foster homes to help a lost soul onto a new life.

 

Fostering is rewarding and sometimes hard work but to see each one of them go off to a new and better life is all the reward we need.

 

If you can foster one of our dogs please phone the Rescue.

 

Every foster home we have is another dog’s life saved!
