£20 could provide a cosy, comfy dog bed
£35.80 could pay for the cost of looking after a dog for a day at one of our rehoming centres
£150 could go towards helping our Behaviour Support Line team answer more calls to provide guidance and assistance to owners in need
£350 could help us provide care for a whole week, including any vet care they might need
£500 could cover the cost of all the essential care for 5 dogs during their first week with us.

We're grateful for every single penny raised by our amazing supporters. Every donation makes a huge impact and helps make tomorrow's world a better place for all dogs.
