The donation received will be used to support the rescue in the ongoing care of the dogs, in particular our veterinary bills which are a constant and significant expense for the organisation. Our average monthly veterinary bills are often in excess of €12,000. Kennelling costs are also a considerable outlay of funds, with a monthly average cost of €5,000.
All our dogs are micro-chipped, vaccinated, treated for worms & fleas, in addition, many of the dogs that some into our care require moderate to extensive veterinary treatment e.g. as a result of road traffic accidents or extreme cases of neglect. Through our commitment to high levels of veterinary care, we ensure the dogs that come into our care are fully rehabilitated before being re-homed, thus ensuring the dogs’ welfare.
We operate a very strict neutering/spaying policy for all our dogs, which includes follow up and neutering of puppies when they are old enough for the procedure.
All potential new homes are fully checked to ensure the dog has the best chance of a successful and permanent adoption within its’ new home.
