SULOTI DACHSHUND SUPPORT REPORT OF THE TRusfEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2026 ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charitable actlviiies Rehomin9 - We have a comprehensive procedure to assess dogs for rehoming and the potential new adopter. A number of dogs have been rehomed this year and the main reasons that the dogs were relinquished were owner illness. young children and personal circumstsnces. Welcome Packs We continue to provide Welcome Packs for new adopter5 to hold all documentation relating to the Dachshund they have adopted as well as item5 for the dog to use in its new home. As always we are grateful to members of the public for donating gifts from our Amazon Wish List to be included in the pack. Foster C¥re - We have had very few dogs in foster care and have managed to arrange appropriate rehoming to enable the dog5 to transfer direct to a new home from their existing home. Equipment Loan This area has grown tremendously and the number of pieces of equipment loaned has more than doubled compared to last year's figuies. The majority of the equipment loaned out was pet strollers and we have had enough donations to be able to purchase many new strollers and provide equipment to every Dachshund owner that has contacted us this year. The main reason for the loan requests was primarily IVDD as well as cancer and old age. We have several pet strollers on long term loan to elderly Dachshund5 Wlth medical ondition5. Comprehensive Educational Leaming Programme - Our social media sites Facebool Instsgram and YouTube have seen a rise in the number of followers and this year we featured some children's stories written specifically for the charity that provided a subtle educational message relating to dogs. welfare and their care. The final instslment was featured on our social media on Christmas Eve. The following articles are featured regulady. Formal educational information relating to issues specific to the year's season. Relevant historical information. both educational and historical information is thoroughly researched. Rehoming, foster Stories and updates provided by new owners and foster carers We are conscious of the differing needs of our 5UPPOrters and take care to use variolts styles of presentation to cover this need. Strict confidentiallty requirements are always adhered to. Telephone Support - Support offering guidance, reassurance and prartical advice to owners whose dogs were suffering frorn IVDD has played a large part in our work this year as well as offering support to owners of dogs with behaviovral and other health issues. Sadly we have also 5UPPOrted those grieving the105s of their beloved companion. If we felt prolessional help wa5 needed beyond what we could provide the caller was supplied with details of recommended organisations some of which we have developed working partnerships with. The demand for breed splfiC support continues to be strong and we are pleased to be able to assist all Dachshund owners. Groups and Walks We have continued to arrange events for our social media sUPPOrt groups. These groups remain very popular with even more people altending the events with their Dachshunds. At these walks and events we are able to provide further help for all Dachshunds and their owners, Dachshund owners are also able to meet up to 50cialise their dogs and spend time with like.minded people. We have particularly found that people with puppies find these events beneficial to help socialise their nervous puppy. It is very rewarding to see a nervous puppy gain confidence by spending tirne with their own breed, We have also found that during these events owners often approach Trustees to discus5 any concern5 they have with their Dachshunds. Webslte - The web51te 15 constantty being reviewed and updated, changing the website content to enable us to carry out our work to the best of our ability and to maintain interest for members of the public whilst accurately portraying the services we provide and the work we cary out.
