Anybody or any organisation that helps dogs find new homes need support of a y kind. I support Dogs trust a d their friendly staff are amazing and any support us welcome especially blankets for their special clients. I go in regularly to look at the amazing dogs looking for homes. A very special dog called Sam that I rescued and found a home for very close to me passed away. Sam was a beautiful boy a Yorkshire Terrior whom I fell in love with but I could not keep as my own dog did not like him. After a couple of days my 2 lovely neighbours took him and they fell in love with each other and gave Sam a happy life for 7 years and I was part of hos life too thanks to my friends who took him they allowed me to be part of his life. Sadly he had to go to heaven and my grief is massive I go to Dogs Trust for solace and to say hello to my dogs. However for a short period my grief subsides for a short while. Perhaps I hope my beautiful neighbours will take a forever dog in Sam's memory because the love a dog gives is so powerful your heart needs that love so it can give lo e back. Love is so important for a heart to survive and to keep the memory of a pet that has left us needs you to love another dog.

They do a great job overall in Ireland and Britain. Many people donate monies through bank direct debit, revolut, and credit card. I do donate new toys and beds, plus food there on a monthly basis on a personal note But when you see the facilities, the staff, their daily tasks with the boys and girl fur babies, your heart will cry. It's a joy to witness the dogs' happiness and security. I have also heard people actually leave a donation in their wills for the trust when they pass away. 💯

Very modern clean environment for Dogs. Staff were friendly and helpful. The rehoming cost is exorbitant at €220. People are living in worse conditions than the Digs here....
