as a whole. work closely with foster carers
ensuring that the dog’s physical
and behavioural needs are met.
Some of these dogs require very
special veterinary care and others
require more routine care
(vaccinations, neutering etc).
Some we have needed to place
into kennels to ensure their safety.
We cover our costs through
donations and fund raising as well
as adoption fees when the doodle
finally finds its forever home
(often with the foster family).
Many of our doodles would have
been euthanized as owners no
longer wanted them/ felt that they
could care for their particular
needs. This has been particularly
true as we have come out of
Lockdown and owners have
returned to work, and have
neither the time nor the correct
environment for their new doodle.

## **Financial Review**
**----- Start of picture text -----**
Review of the charity’s Para 1.21 Our income amounted to
financial position at the £22,009.67 and our expenditure
end of the period was £11,285.46. Income was
higher than normal in this
accounting period due to fund
raising for a very special doodle
that required and will require
ongoing veterinary support.
Income is derived from fund
raisers and adoption fees, and our
main expenses are vet bills
(primarily neuter/ spay),
behaviourists and trainers, foster
charges and payments to partner
organisations (specialist
rehabilitation rescues that support
us with dogs with significant
behavioural issues/ bite history).
Statement explaining the Para 1.22 We hold reserves as we cannot
policy for holding predict what doodles we have at
reserves stating why they any one time and how much
are held financial support each doodle will
require. Our ideal would be to
fund raise when we are quiet
which would lead to reserves
being held. A fund raiser in this
accounting period and one just
prior to the accounting period
raised a significant proportion of
our funds which is earmarked for
support for three doodles
relinquished to the Rescue with
significant and ongoing medical
needs.
Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 £10,724.21
