We're fundraising for Dogs Trust
Meet Raven, Kirk's own Dogs Trust rescue. Her story is a testament to the incredible work Dogs Trust does every day, helping dogs find their forever homes.
Dogs Trust is the UK’s largest dog welfare charity. Each year, we care for roughly 14,000 dogs through our 21 rehoming centres and foster carers across the UK and Ireland. We are proud to promise to never put a healthy dog down, and we are working towards the day when every dog has a happy life, free from the threat of unnecessary destruction.
Our Dog School prevents relinquishment by equipping the owners of more than 20,000 dogs every year with the tools to prevent unwanted behaviours from occurring. We enable owners to understand their pooch and enhance the bond with their dog through reward-based methods.
Through our Outreach projects, we help society’s most vulnerable; Together Through Homelessness provides food and veterinary care to dogs owned by people in housing crisis across the UK, Freedom provides emergency foster care and support to dogs owned by victims of domestic abuse.
Our world-leading research team conducts ground-breaking studies that push the boundaries of veterinary and canine behavioural science and drive change in the canine welfare sector.
Thanks to wonderful supporters like you, we can give dogs across the UK a happier and healthier life. Find out more about how you can support us, or to see if any of the dogs looking for their forever home could be your perfect match.
