At Animal Helpline, we have dogs of all shapes and

sizes, colours and breeds, to suit any family!

Page 3: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

Animal Helpline has been rescuing

unwanted dogs and puppies for 30 years

Thousands of abandoned canines have found their way to a new home, through us

We take in and rehomearound 10 dogs a week,

that’s over 520 dogsrehomed each year!

Page 4: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

Abandoned and stray dogs are taken into council pounds. These dogs then have 7

days to be claimed or rescued....Or they are destroyed (put to sleep)

The charity Dogs Trust estimate nearly 9000 stray dogs are put to sleep each year

Animal Helpline takes dogs on at their 7 day limit; we are literally the last hope for

pound dogs

Page 5: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

The dogs in these photos are real pound

dogs nearing their 7 day limit.

By the time you see this, if Animal Helpline or

other rescues have not stepped in to save them, their time will be up, and these innocent dogs will have been destroyed.

Flloyd “was very skinny and

covered in scars (and had a belly full of worms)”

and was a nervous boy…

Having found his forever home, his body weight has doubled, he is content and affectionate,

and his new owners say:“We would like to say how

thankful we are that places like Homes 4 Dogs give a second chance to dogs with nowhere else to go. 5 Months ago, we

definitely never expected to end up with a staffy, but would not

be without our Floyd now.”

Hope the Westie was rescued by Animal Helpline – she was

due to be put to sleep because she had

mange. She was in poor physical

condition and looked very sorry for herself

Page 11: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

Hope has now been given a new start, and a new name! Poppy (as she is now known) is

healthy and happy in her forever

home, with 4 doggy playmates!

Otto the Doberman came to us, as sadly

so many of the strays do,

emaciated and looking like a

walking skeleton

Page 13: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

Lucky Otto is now a well and active boy, who

has a great home with some canine companions and a big paddock to

run around in!

Page 14: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

Without Animal Helpline, these happy endings would not exist, and we dread to

think where dogs like the ones below would be if we had not been there to save them

The shelter is always in need of extra funds, to provide food for the dogs, pay

vets bills and maintain the kennelsThe latest project we are fundraising for is a play-area for the dogs, we hope to convert some wasteland into a doggy

wonderland!

Page 17: Why not give the gift of  life  and  love  to a rescue dog?

You can help the rescue by walking the dogs, cleaning out kennels,

helping with fundraising or fostering!

We also need help with the planned groundwork

and kennel building/ maintenance, so if you’re a dab hand at DIY come

along and join us!
