ANY OFFERS OF SPACE MUST COME FROM THE RESCUE OFFERING.
WE DO NOT AND HAVE NEVER ASK FOR PLEDGES.
We understand that feeling run high and people feel angry when this happens but It’s really important people understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes with pound dogs in the UK
When we share urgent posts, it’s not to upset people or be dramatic — it’s because these dogs are genuinely at risk due to lack of space. Council pounds have a legal duty to hold stray dogs for a set period, but they don’t have unlimited kennels. When those kennels are full and more dogs keep coming in, incredibly difficult decisions have to be made.
The heartbreaking truth is: it isn’t the people sharing these posts, and it isn’t the pound staff, who are to blame. The people working in pounds are often animal lovers themselves, doing the best they can in an impossible situation.
The real issue starts much earlier.
It’s the result of:
Dogs being bred without thought or responsibility
Owners not neutering their pets
People buying dogs without understanding the commitment
Dogs being abandoned, passed around, or handed in when life changes
By the time a dog reaches the pound, the system is already under pressure — and the options are limited.
When we post these dogs, we are trying to prevent that outcome, not cause it. Every share, every foster home, every adoption gives a dog a chance that they otherwise wouldn’t have.
We understand it’s upsetting — it upsets us too. But turning on the people trying to help doesn’t change the reality for these dogs.
If you want to make a difference, the best ways to help are:
Consider fostering or adopting
Support rescues and pounds
Promote responsible ownership and neutering
Share the dogs that need homes
We’re all on the same side here — trying to give these dogs the second chance they deserve
