A bit more about our dogs
Our dogs come to us from all over Britain where they are on “Death row", in council pounds, these are dogs that have been found as strays, abandoned or been handed in by their owners. Most council pounds will only keep the dogs for 7 days then if no rescue space is found the dog is then "Put to Sleep". Few people realise that many healthy dogs, through no fault of their own, are being destroyed if not claimed within the 7 days
Our dogs are all fully assessed and placed in foster homes to be assessed further.
All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and micro-chipped.
- Most of the dogs are strays so we don't have much or any history on them when they come to us.
- A few are owner surrenders, these come in via dog wardens, pound pullers, social care. We may have some history on these dogs but sometimes it is limited.

Why pound dogs?
The grossed number now stands at an estimated 56,043 stray dogs across the UK according to the Dogs Trust UK.
Dogs trust stray survey report for 2017
https://www.dogstrust.org.uk/about-us/publications/stray%20dogs%20report%202017-18%20final.pdf
Some of these dogs died afraid and alone, unclaimed strays, thrown out like unwanted toys. Britain's throwaway society has gone mad. One dog dying like this is one dog to many. These dogs don't have a voice so we decided to help them.
This has to stop, please help us to end this.

How we find out about these dogs
We find out about "pound dogs" from the council kennel or from pound pullers these are volunteers that work alongside council kennels, they network on private social media groups and via emails to try and find rescue spaces to save the dog’s life.
When a rescue space is found that rescue must offer full rescue back up (RBU) for that dog for the rest of its life.
Dedicated volunteers from all over the UK then network to help transport the dogs to the rescue, this could be anywhere in the UK. This can take days, sometimes weeks to arrange, emergency boarding if available may be used at this point to keep the dog safe.
