In the charity's own words
We aim to rescue unwanted and stray dogs by keeping them either in a safe foster home or in a kennel. They are attended by a veterinary surgeon and we call in a behaviourist if necessary. Following necessary home checks, our dogs are rehomed and we follow their progress. To raise funds for all these tasks, we hold dog shows, sponsored walks, attend carnivals and car boot sales.
