5 reasons to avoid buying dogs from breeders

October 8, 2018 by Emma Billington

Our work here at Dogs 4 Rescue mostly involves supporting dogs who have already suffered abuse, neglect or abandonment. But it wouldn’t be right for us not to address some of the key causes of the crisis in rescue we have currently here in the UK – and campaign for preventative change.

I wrote this blog after being asked once again whether we have a specific breed here at the rescue up for adoption. The unfortunate truth is that pedigree breeds are still favoured over mongrels.

Darling’s Happy Ending

October 2, 2018 by Emma Billington

A happy ending a day keeps the sadness at bay… well that’s what we think anyway!

Here we have a Happy Ending for Darling – one of the doggies we believed may have ended up a lifer here at the rescue as she had many trials but became so difficult we thought she may be unhomeable.
