Why we need your support

  • Every week 1000 people are making the call to give up their dog.
  • While most dogs find a loving new home within about six weeks, some dogs need love and support for longer.
  • We rely on sponsorships to look after the 1600 dogs in our care at any one time.

Your support can make the world of difference.

What do sponsors receive?

When you sponsor a dog you will receive:

  • A personalised photo-certificate with details of their new pal, which you can treasure forever.
  • Postcards, window sticker and a magnet, so they can be reminded of their new four-legged friend wherever you are.
  • Updates three times a year, at Christmas, Valentine’s Day and in the summer, with information about what they’ve been up to and how they’re getting on.

Dogs you can sponsor come in all shapes, sizes, breeds and ages. You might choose one that reminds the lucky recipient of a beloved pet, or one with similar personality traits to your own.
