🚨 PLEASE HELP US KEEP GOING 🚨 I need to be completely honest with you. Dogs on the Streets is struggling financially. The number of people and dogs needing our help has become overwhelming. Every day, another desperate call comes in. Veterinary care. Foster care. Food. Emergency support. And sometimes, simply being there for someone who has nobody else. I just cannot turn them away. But the reality is that we cannot continue without financial support. I am a director of this charity and take zero pay. I am a volunteer, just like so many others who give their time because they care. We don't have a fancy PR team. We don't have paid promoters. We don't have big corporate backing. We are simply people trying to help people and their dogs through some incredibly difficult circumstances. And I am exhausted — mentally and physically. Tomorrow I am having scans and tests because of health issues that have started to arise. I know I need to look after myself, but when that phone rings and someone desperately needs help, I struggle to walk away. How do you tell someone who has lost everything that we can't help because the money has run out? I don't want that to happen. We currently believe we have around TWO MONTHS financially to continue providing the level of support that is desperately needed. So today, I am asking you — please help us. 🙏 If you can donate, no matter how small, please do. 🐾 If you can't donate, please share this post. ❤️ If you've ever believed in what Dogs on the Streets stands for, please stand with us now. Your donation could help provide veterinary treatment. It could help keep a dog safely with the person they love. It could help feed someone who is struggling. Or it could simply mean that when someone reaches the end of their tether and picks up the phone, there is still someone there to answer. We need you. Please don't let us have to say, "I'm sorry, we can't help." Donate here:

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL DOG DAY! Although if you asked the 80-ish dogs currently living at DOTS, they'd tell you every day should be International Dog Day. Frankly, they have a point. Today we're celebrating every dog that's walked, bounced, dragged, slobbered, zoomied and occasionally completely ignored us through our gates. Some are here because their owner has been rushed into hospital, is fleeing domestic violence, experiencing homelessness or facing another crisis. For them, we're the safe place in the middle until hopefully we can put that lead back into the hand of the person they love. Others have been abandoned or sadly have nobody coming back for them. They stay with us while we find the right next chapter. Some arrive frightened. Some arrive bouncing off the walls. Others eat their dinner, find the comfiest bed and apparently decide they've booked an all-inclusive. Looking after 80+ dogs means a LOT of food, treats, bedding, enrichment, vet care and frankly obscene amounts of washing powder. So today, could you: Buy a dog their dinner. Send something from our wishlist. Or donate just £1. If every DOTS follower gave £1 today, imagine how many dogs we could help tomorrow. DONATE:
dogsonthestreets.org/donate-… WISHLIST:
dogsonthestreets.org/wishlis… Can't donate? Share us. It's free and could put DOTS in front of a donor, fosterer or a dog's future family. Happy International Dog Day from all of us at DOTS and around 80 + very opinionated residents. Give your dog an extra biscuit. We won't tell the vet. 😁🧡

Please, we really do need support with this. If we do not pay a deposit by the end of this week we will lose the 24th of August slot which will then take us into more the end of September. We really need to get these Kennels done before colder months come 🙏🙏🙏
