DAWGdogs Rescue

DAWGdogs Rescue is a non-profit organisation staffed by volunteers.

Every penny raised goes towards the high costs improving the lives of as many dogs as we are able to save.

Our veterinary bills alone run into many thousands of pounds each year, and the costs of feeding, microchipping, sheltering and transporting those in our care are ever rising.

Please make the DAWGdogs a donation if you can.

You can securely make an online donation using the Paypal button below.

To donate in other ways,

please ring Helen on 01202 380467 for more details!

Thank you so much to everyone who helps keep the Rescue running !

Rescuers, rescue supporters, and volunteers do not walk on water.
We don't wear capes and tights or leap tall buildings.
We aren't better than anyone else, but we do pursue a cause that we believe makes us better than we were before we started.
We make mistakes; we feel we can't do enough; we go broke; we have too many dogs at home; we rant out of frustration; we lose our tempers and get snappy; we have to reject people sometimes for the good of a dog.
We are not always likeable.
What we do is draining, emotionally, financially, and physically.
Please bear with us and forgive us our flaws, because we are doing work that's bigger than we are.

Thank you Steph for these photos!

All these dogs need homes!!

Microchip laws have changed and all dogs now have to be registered with the keeper (not the Rescue).

It will help us tremendously if anyone that has adopted a DAWGdog contacts us to ensure the records are correct.

VERY IMPORTANT! PLEASE NOTE:

We are NOT,nor have ever been,

'DORSET DOG RESCUE'a.k.a 'DDR'a.k.a 'DORSET & SOMERSET DOG RESCUE'

about which there has been considerable adverse publicity.

Nor are we linked in any way with any other Rescue using the name DAWG elsewhere in the UK, Ireland or in the USA
