ANNUAL REPORT 2021 – 2022

The Trust had yet another very busy year with many dogs being relinquished that have been purchased throughout the pandemic. Owners who had not been able to socialise the dogs or were unable to adequately train them encountered problems when they returned to work and were forced to leave the dogs for long hours.

The incidence of abandoned dogs increased dramatically and the Trust were asked on numerous occasions both down in the south of England and in the Lincolnshire/Nottinghamshire areas to assist the local authorities with stray rehoming. In many instances the dogs placed with us were under 18 months of age. Some of these dogs have not been easy to place because of their lack of training. Many hours have been spent on rehabilitating these dogs using experienced trainers at great cost to the Trust.

Several dogs over 12 years of age have been placed with us owing to the death of the owner and where no provision has been made for their care. We have successfully managed to place these with senior citizens and have thus enriched their lives in an otherwise lonely existence. Very often these people have had dogs all their lives and miss the company of a pet. Obviously, the Trust are careful to ensure that they can adequately manage the dog and its needs. In these cases, the dogs are fully supported by the Trust thus presenting no financial burden on the keeper.

Since the pandemic the Trust has had to re-write part of its guidelines in order to comply with legislation for the time being in force. With the changes to Insurance regulations, we have had to amend our method of using foster homes. Most dogs being placed for rehoming are now assessed in our kennels and prospective adopters are invited to visit and to interact with the dog. This is done under strict supervision. Every care is taken when matching a dog to a prospective family and where possible, homes are found with similar characteristics to their previous home i.e. used to young children, used to another resident dog etc. Our aim is to place a dog in a home where it will stay for the remainder of its life.

We are full members of the Association of Dog & Cat Homes and were the first breed rescue to be accorded full membership. Our compliance to the high welfare standards set by the Association is 100% In terms of fundraising for this year, obviously with the strict regulations in force many events were cancelled and therefore we sought to fundraise by other methods. Our on-line shop was well subscribed and brought in much needed funds to support dogs in our care. Facebook and social media were used to great effect when funds were needed for a specific veterinary case.

Support in the form of veterinary care has been granted to several dogs in the past year. A notable case was an 8-month-old Labrador who was born with an elbow defect who underwent major surgery with a wellknown referral hospital in Hertfordshire. He has lifetime support from the Trust for his monthly injections and medication. He was successfully adopted by a family who were willing to take on a dog with medical needs. Our annual fees for veterinary care exceeds £50,000 per annum.

The Trust has been fortunately enough to receive two legacies during this period which has enabled it to continue its work and provide assistance to a high standard. We anticipate that the demand for our services will increase as the financial climate rises and places dog owners under greater pressure.
