The NFRSA - what do we do? The National Foundation for Retired Service Animals (NFRSA) provides vital financial support for the medical care and wellbeing of retired police, fire, prison, NCA, NHS, and border force animals across the UK. After years of loyal service protecting our communities, many working animals retire with complex medical needs and ongoing healthcare costs. We’re here to make sure they’re not forgotten. Whether it’s a prison dog recovering from injuries, or a police horse suffering from colic - the NFRSA steps in to help. We do not charge our family a compulsory monthly membership fee, our assistance is given freely. Your donations, support, and purchases of our merchandise go directly towards giving these incredible animals the retirement they deserve. We keep our overheads to a minimum, and we strive to make sure your donations go where they’re needed, to the animals, not on admin costs. Please consider donating to our work - a monthly contribution of just £5 - (the price of a cup of coffee and cake - and less than one pint of beer) - makes a huge difference. It could help RPD Stark from @WMPDogs with his monthly meds - £140; or RPD Sam from @DogsHmpps with his monthly Librela injection - £140; or RBFDD Rolo from @UKBorder with his epilepsy prescription - £80; or RPH Bodie from @swpolice who recently suffered from colic - £400. There are many more we help on a monthly basis - not enough room to list them all here! Or it could go towards the comfort we give when a retired dog has to leave for their final journey such as RPD Lenny from @DevonPoliceDogs @DC_Police - who passed away last month - £680. In the first quarter of 2025 alone we have processed, and paid, 48 grants totalling well over £20,000 - ranging all the way from £60 to £2,300, and as much as £4,300. However, we simply cannot be there for our heroic service animals, who have protected us all in so many ways, without your help - so please join us in supporting our mission: ‘Protecting Our Protectors’. Thank you so much. (*Link to our website, where you can help or donate, appears below in replies*) 💜🐾🐴🐾💜

It was my first birthday on Sunday. I’m a whole year old. Time flies when you’re having fun, Mummy says she is very proud of the young lady I’ve become. #puppy #adult #LABRADOR #dogs #dog #doglovers #lovedogs
