Our dogs never walk alone
We are urging dog owners to think ahead when it comes to making sure their faithful four-legged friend is loved and looked after if something happens to them.
Our free Canine Care Card service allows any signed up dog to be automatically cared for by us. This applies to:
- If their owner passes away
- Moves into a care home
- Or receives a life-changing diagnosis which means they can no longer look after their much-loved canine companion.

The Canine Care Card gives dog owners peace of mind that their dog will be loved for a lifetime. We know that the bond between an owner and their dog is entirely unique and it’s hard to imagine that anyone could love and care for their dog as much as they do. But we promise we will. We will look after them either at the centre or in one of our wonderful foster homes and when the time is right, we will find them a new home.
Celine Di Crocco, Loughborough Manager
Callie and Fletch are a sweet duo of 12-year-old Cairn Terrier crosses registered on the Canine Care Card.
Celine says:
“A Canine Care Card makes things so much easier for owners, their families, and their dogs. Dog owners spend their lives caring for and protecting their four-legged friends; having a Canine Care Card means that that can continue, even in difficult circumstances.
If an owner expresses their wishes by having a Canine Care Card, it removes the uncertainty for owners and families and relieves some of the stress they will be experiencing at an emotional time. Also, all the information we get from the owner helps us make the transition to a new family as stress-free as possible for the dog.
None of us know what’s around the corner so we would urge all dog owners to think ahead, like Amy and Alfie’s owner did, so their dog doesn’t miss out on a minute of the love and care they deserve.”
