‘I may be blind, but please don’t give up on me’

Will you help more dogs with disabilities feel extra love?

Dogs like Tiny Tim can often be overlooked because of the extra time, cost and specialist guidance they need.

They’ve already faced so much, but the only thing holding them back once in our care is the wait for a forever home. And we don’t know how long that will take. That’s why as dog lovers, we can’t give up on them.

Tiny Tim may have found a loving home, but there’s so many more just like him still waiting.

Dogs like Keiko

Keiko was found as a stray, and taken to a pound where her badly deformed leg meant that she faced a high chance of being put to sleep.

Your support allows us to run our vital ambulance service, which we used to collect Keiko and bring her into our care before it was too late.

Our vet team made the difficult but necessary decision to amputate Keiko’s bad leg so that she would have a much better quality of life.

Like most dogs in our care who have extra needs, Keiko was able to recover comfortably in foster care, where she was given gentle exercise to help her manage, along with all the fuss and love she had been missing. But there are still so many dogs like her waiting to be safe.

Your gift today helps us to keep our promise to never put down a healthy dog.

Dogs like Fig

After being abandoned to the streets, elderly Fig who was completely blind was so vulnerable, anything could have happened to her.

Once this gently girl was in our care, it was clear to see how confused and terrified she had been. To have been out there all alone, is one thing, but not being able to see, she was lucky she didn’t wander into a road.

We settled her into a foster home, where your support is vital for ensuring we can provide everything thing previously neglected dogs need to finally feel safe and loved.

But there's still so many like her who without our intervention the outcome could be a lot bleaker.

Your gift could help dogs with disabilities, like Fig, get the care that they need to thrive.
