Doris Banham Dog Rescue – From council pounds to happy hounds. Every life counts

PLEASE SAVE OUR DOGS
EMERGENCY HELP NEEDED DURING THIS TERRIBLE TIME

This is the most desperate plea I have ever made and I don’t think during all the times that I have seen our Charity go through I have ever been so afraid for our dogs.

We have today closed all three of our Charity shops as the unpaid volunteers who run them have gone into self-isolation as they are elderly or have health issues which would make the virus deadly to them.

Without these shops we have absolutely no chance of survival without urgently finding alternative means of funding and the services we give to the animal world will be no more.

Without your help we will definitely not survive and our 80 dogs who have only just learnt to feel secure and trust the world again will have nowhere to go as they have already been rejected by everyone but us.

We promised them they would be safe and now they face being at deadly risk again which is an unbearable thing to think about as we care for them – that now even we will be forced to betray them because there will be no money to pay for their care.

If we cannot hold on and weather this crisis thousands of the most needy dogs will lose their lives into the future.

Please be a bridge for us that the dogs can use to reach safety once again.

There are no words to describe just how desperate this situation is and I beg you with all my heart to save our dogs so that we can continue to get them ready for their new lives.

Please please donate, set up a standing order, sponsor a kennel or support us in any way you can so that we can keep all our dogs safe and continue our life saving work during this desperate virus time when the need for us is even greater.

Standing orders will allow us to plan our survival. Donations can be made by any of the methods on the donate page

I am the voice of all our dogs and I beg you with all my heart please help - you are our only hope of surviving
Trudiexxx

PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN

EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF YOU
EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF YOUWhen I saw this video it made me cry because it shows the reason why we stand rigidly by our ethos and struggle every month to put our ethos into action by saving the lives of the most needy dogs. Please listen to Richard one of our trainers' words as he talks about the dogs he and his team have brought back from the brink. I said yes to every one of these dogs when they needed us most. I remember the states they were in and how desperate, sick and defeated they were and see how happy and whole they are today. But I could only say yes because of your support and I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart on behalf of them now that their lives have been put back together. We are the hands that care for the dogs but you are the lifeblood that allows those hands to work. You saved these dogs by your support. We are struggling at the moment under the load and being inundated every day with requests for dogs just as needy as these dogs were so please please continue to support our work and make more miracles like these possible. We want to continue helping the abused, discarded and maltreated but every day it gets harder so please continue your wonderful support and we will be able to continue to save these precious lives. If you would like to donate please do so on the button on this post or on this link https://www.dorisbanhamdogrescue.org/wp/donate/ Please keep the faith and everything is possible Trudiexxx

MEET BEAUTIFUL MAX

Max has recently come into our care. Here he is being picked up from the pound. He is a lovely boy and is about 4 years old. He was brought into the pound by the police but not for anything he had done. The pound considered that he needed some retraining before he could be rehomed and asked us to take him. Max has just started his 28 day assessment with us which is our policy for all our dogs before we devise an individual retraining plan for them.

With your amazing support during the Covid crisis our Ark is still afloat and our dogs have been kept safe and given time to find their forever homes - freeing kennels to save more precious lives. Your amazing support has achieved all that and the dogs thank you from the bottom of their hearts. But we are by no means secure and our future is still uncertain. Some dogs like Max cannot wait until things have stabilised. The window to help them is now. Please keep supporting us so our vital work can continue.

Please, it would be wonderful if you could help to support
Max whilst we prepare him for the home he always deserved. The cost for his care and retraining is £3.50 per night. If you could make a donation for him however small on the button on this post or by paypal dorisbanhamfundraising@live.com that would be fantastic

Thank you from Max for helping him. Dogs like Max depend on us to be here when there is a chance to change their lives. Together we can make such a difference xxxx ... See MoreSee Less

Oh she looks a happy girl, tail wagging away. ❤️

Ha ha, great to see her so happy, my boyo Quinn had hardly seen the great outdoors when I rescued him, took alot of pacience and love to get him where he is now, poor lad was kept in a crate in a flat for first 18 mths of his life, lives in the countryside now for past 3+ years, staffy heaven for him, spoiled rotten.. ❤️❤️

I have a broken little finger from a very happy German shepherd and a long lead. Entirely my fault she saw birds and I wasn't concentrating 😂

She looks like she is loving it. Fantastic work xxxx

She’s a beautiful girl ❤️

I remember Rocky my lab cross doing that with me and my boyfriend. He suddenly ran fast and I ended up flying like a plane landed on my stomach. Hurt beyond words! God rest his soul. R. I. P Rocky died 17/6/18 age 15 years

Aww she wants to zoom in the grass.

Mia was afraid of every thing before we rescued her she is doing a lot better after her operation and TLC we will get there xxxx

Well done Mia. I know you would love to run free, like the wind, but please learn

Awwwwww 💖 💕 💞
