Dogs Trust > Ways We Help >
Our mission statement is 'Dogs Trust is working towards the day when all dogs can enjoy a happy life, free from the threat of unnecessary destruction.'
This statement is aimed at all dogs in the UK whether they be in our care, ex-Dogs Trust dogs or dogs that need our help. We have set up several schemes and projects around the country to help us achieve our ultimate aim.
Dogs Trust Outreach Projects provide advice and services for pet owners who are homeless or in housing crisis.
Advice and information is also available for agencies and housing providers who are working with pet owners in housing crisis.
We pride ourselves on helping those dogs in countries that are less aware of animal welfare issues or that need assistance. To this end we have set up international projects, many in association with other charities, to help educate and raise awareness of dog welfare in these countries.
Our campaigns help us to highlight issues in dog welfare that not everyone may be aware of. With our aim in mind we have put in place various projects and schemes to meet this aim.
Educating the dog owners of tomorrow is one of the ways we hope to help dogs in the future. Our Education programme is free to all UK primary schools and we have Education Officers in our campaign regions who visit schools, giving interactive workshops.
