Fetcher Dog aims to alleviate the recent increase in UK dog abandonment by helping UK dog pounds

Fetcher Dog have stepped up to alleviate the current stray/abandoned dog crisis in the UK and are working closely with Animal Lifeline UK, New Hope Animal Rescue and Swale Borough Council by accepting UK dogs, that have run out of time and options, giving them a second chance to reach their full potential.

The Stray Dog Crisis

The number of dogs being abandoned or given up to UK dog rescue centres has increased immensely recently. 'Pandemic dogs', ie, dogs that were adopted whilst the pandemic's shutdown was in full force are now being abandoned, at an alarming rate, as employees return to offices rather than working from home or realise that their dogs needs and

requirements have changed.

Many UK rescue centres are reporting that they are full to capacity, this inevitably leads to more dog abandonment, dog pounds then accepting these dogs resulting in overcrowding which results in dogs being killed.

Increase in Dog Abandonment = Overcrowded Rescue Centres = Overfilled Dog Pounds = Increase in Dog Loss of Life (Euthanasia)

Fetcher Dog Overview

Hundreds of dogs are abandoned at home and abroad every day. The cost-of-living crisis has increased this exponentially and dogs need our help now more than ever. We rescue dogs from U.K. pounds, the streets and kill shelters of Bosnia and take local owner surrenders. 

Fetcher Dog then finds forever homes for these dogs in England and Wales. These dogs have been through so much that they desperately deserve wonderful families, and we aim to pair all of our dogs with the best forever homes that we can find.

Fetcher Dog is Charity Commission Registered- Charity Number 1182392
