THANK YOU TO THE PETPLAN CHARITABLE TRUST FOR YOUR GENEROSITY, COMPASSION AND UNDERSTANDING
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to Petplan UK for your wonderful grant of ยฃ5,000 to aid our Frontline Pandemic Workload Recovery.
It is always really motivational when our frontline work is recognised and help is given to help us to recover from the enormous additional burden it has placed upon us, especially as we are a retraining facility whose services have been even more vitally needed during these difficult times.
We would like to congratulate this wonderful Trust on their 30th Anniversary. We wish them another happy and successful 30 years as organisations such as these make the world a better place.
Thank you to the Petplan Charitable Trust from us all, all our dogs and all the dogs whose lives will be saved through their amazing support.
Doris Banham Dog Rescue are so proud and privileged to be presented their cheque for ยฃ25,000 on the site of their brand new kennel block - a dream that the Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust has made come true by awarding us their 40th Anniversary Special Project Award. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and the hearts of all the dogs in our care.
As we struggle to cope with the present national animal welfare crisis, the donation of this kennel block at our main kennels by the Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust is a real Godsend. During this crisis we have had to take an increased number of emergency boarding kennels in order to save dogs' lives when our main kennels are full which has placed us under enormous financial pressure. We were 'the last chance to live' for these dogs who would all have died if we had not taken extra kennels. This block will allow us to move 10 dogs at a time out of emergency boarding to our main kennels for rehoming thus allowing us to reduce costs and increase our rehoming rate. We are so very grateful to Jean Sainsbury for giving us this amazing lifeline.
We would like to thank the wonderful Betty Phillips Charitable Trust for the amazing grant that they have awarded our Charity.
It is so uplifting and motivating when a like-minded organisation supports the life-saving work we do and understands the urgency of the situation during this continuing national animal welfare crisis.
As 100% of the funds received will be spent directly on rescuing the dogs, this grant will do immeasurable good.
Our heartfelt thanks go out to them from us all at Doris Banham Dog Rescue and all the dogs in our care but extra special thanks go to them from all the dogs who will now live because of their generosity and compassion. For these dogs they are truly animal angels.
This grant will enable us to save the lives of dogs in pounds, veterinary surgeries and other desperate situations who are imminently due to die, change their fates and find them the loving homes they always deserved. No words can describe our gratitude to the Trust for giving us the ability to do this and we thank them from the bottom of our hearts. Trudiexxxx
As we celebrate our 20th year of unconditional love, we would like our anniversary year to be a year when we remember the thousands and thousands of dogs we have saved and also those whom, although we tried with all our might, we were unable to.
We would like to celebrate the dogs we have in our care and be so very thankful for the amazing army of animal angels who support us so brilliantly. We ask you please come celebrate with us!
We would love all our supporters to join together in our anniversary plans and help us to raise funds so that we can say with certainty that we will be here next year to continue saving precious lives together. Please look for our anniversary posts and support us with all your wonderful hearts.
Together we make the world a better place and the animals need us so very much now more than at any time we have ever known. Together over the past 20 years we have achieved with extreme love and bravery more than we could ever have imagined but there is so much more to do.
Please letโs make this anniversary year a year when we celebrate what we have achieved and make sure that we are here next year to achieve even more. God bless and lots of love Trudie xxxx

The sands of time are running down for stray and neglected dogs in council pounds. Help us to get them on the road to recovery and into the forever home that they deserve.

Just returned from holiday with a Fistful of Dollars, or Euro or Yen? If you don't think it's worth waiting in line at the bank to change them back then there's always somebody willing to take them off your hands.

Saving dogs from the council pound and nursing them back to health and a sense of normality is just the first step. We have only so much space and a seemingly endless stream of new dogs in need of our help. Could you be the final link in the chain that offers one of our dogs the loving home that they deserve?

If you are unable to assist financially and not currently able to offer a home to one of our dogs there are still a number of different ways in which you can lend a hand.

OREO IS HOPEFUL OF FINDING HIS SPECIAL PERSON - COULD THAT BE YOU? ๐
Beautiful Oreo is a two year old Mastiff X. He used to be a very fearful boy due to the abuse and pain he suffered, before we rescued him.
Prior to being rescued, poor Oreo was kept in a shed and physically abused on a regular basis.
Looking towards a positive future - Oreo is now ready to live his best life!
Weโre so happy to tell you what a friendly and playful boy he is. Heโs a strong boy and needs a โbreed savvyโ home. Could that be you?
๐Multiple visits to the kennels will be required, to build up a relationship of trust and confidence with Oreo. Oreo will be nervous until he knows you.
๐งกOreo needs a home with no other dogs or children. He has not been cat tested.
๐He is a strong dog, so needs a strong owner.
We all agree that Oreo deserves the best home โ could that be you?
If you believe that your love can reach Oreoโs heart and would like to take this beautiful boy into your heart and home, please call 07984 143 253 or 07498 066 279 for more information and fill in this form:
www.dorisbanhamdogrescue.org/wp/apply-to-adopt-2/
Our search for the right home for Oreo may take a while and we would be so very grateful if you would consider supporting him whilst he waits patiently for his special family to come. Please, please if you can even donate ยฃ1 it WILL make a difference and will go directly to paying for his care. Oreo is in emergency boarding at ยฃ9 per night and we are struggling to meet all the bills so a pot of his very own would be wonderful and would help us to pay his monthly emergency boarding bill as with so very many in emergency boarding these bills are crippling our rescue.

OVER 1/3 WAY THERE! - PLEASE KEEP SUPPORTING OUR LIFE SAVING VAN - IT IS VITAL TO THE DOGS WHO NEED US SO MUCH
PLEASE HELP US KEEP OUR LIFE SAVING VAN ON THE ROAD - URGENT APPEAL FOR HELP
We have been unexpectedly hit with a bill of ยฃ1,462.76 to keep our life saving van on the road. Without our van we cannot rush out to save a life, collect food or take our dogs to the vets so we vitally need it. We do not hold any reserves so we need your help very much at the moment.
Amongst other things the van did not pass its MOT because the previous owner had chopped the Diesel Particulate Filter which meant that it did not meet the emissions requirements. It was not mendable so needed replacing.
Times are very desperate and frightening at the moment and we need your support more than ever to keep our van on the road.
Please, please if you can even donate ยฃ1 it WILL make a difference and will go directly to paying for this life-saving vehicle
To donate, please use the button below or by PayPal (friends & family) to: dorisbanhamfundraising@live.com

Doris Banham Dog Rescue is lucky enough to be donated 80% of the proceeds from the rental of this beautiful chalet in Winterton on Sea, Norfolk.
Please go to wintertonvalleyholidays.co.uk for more info about the site or ring Marion on 01493 377175 telling her the booking is through Doris Banham Dog Rescue for Chalet 179. Dogs are very welcome.
The Chalet has two bedrooms and sleeps 7 (using settee bed in lounge). It is seaview and you can walk straight out of the patio doors onto the green and straight through the dunes to the sandy beach which stretches for miles and miles. The dunes are a designated nature area. In the local area you choose between quiet pubs and walks to see the seals and also a short distance away is an amusement arcade and seaside attractions. A car ride away is Great Yarmouth for a day out. The atmosphere in this chalet is serene and calming and the perfect place to recharge. It is a totally amazing holiday for you, your family and the dogs.
๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐พ
So please let's get this idyllic chalet fully booked again this year for the sake of the desperate dogs. With the funds that this will raise we will be able to save so many dogs' lives.
