Like rugby?


This is a superb and hard to find, squad signed photo presentation of the Welsh Champion Team celebrating their Triple Crown and Grand Slam win of 2012. The signatures of the full 37 man squad are positioned around the photo and it is fully mounted in a ready to hang, black frame that measures a large and impressive 24" by 19.5". 

A wonderful keepsake for the Welsh Grand Slam season of 2012, it depicts the moment when captain Sam Warburton lifts the Trophy in the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff. The photo print is of excellent quality, my photographs do not do it justice as all of the fine details are there.

The draw for this item will take place on the 19th January 2013 at our meet and greet at the Lush store in Cardiff.

For information on how to buy tickets please visit http://forum.fourpawsanimalrescue.org.uk/index.php?board=285.0

Many thanks to Craig from the Millennium Stadium for very kindly donating this item and to Chris and John (CandJ) for securing it.

Kennel dogs

Can you help Doyle, Frankie or Mack find a loving home? They are in kennels at the moment and really would love a foster home so they can be assessed and put up for rehoming.

Doyle is a very nervous boy and needs a collie experienced foster home where someone will continue with the good work that the kennel staff have been doing. When we say nervous we mean very nervous but we are sure there is someone out there that will give him a chance.

Frankie is a big girl but she appears to love everyone. We don't have any history on her but she has plenty of love to give and with consistent training in a foster home is sure to make someone a lovely companion.
Mack is a another big softie. We aren't sure on how he gets on with other dogs but people he adores. If you would like to give Mack a chance then please get in touch.

We are always looking for experienced foster homes and if you fancy giving fostering a go please fill out our form so we can arrange a homecheck.


If you cannot adopt from a rescue then foster, if you cannot foster then donate, if you cannot donate then volunteer. These dogs and more like them need your help.

Thank you

2012. A summary.


Katie says thank you!
This year has been one of our busiest to date. In the last 12 months we have rehomed/rescued in the region of 700 dogs.

Our  vets bills have totalled a colossal £23,000 this year alone. Although we try not to use kennels and get all of our dogs into comfy foster homes our kennel costs have been a massive £28,000.

We couldn't have done any of it without you and would like to say a big thank you to all of you lovely volunteers who have fundraised, donated, fostered, homechecked, adopted, helped with transport runs... The list is endless.

Pulling together as a team we have managed to save so many dogs and although we have had many ups and downs this year, we are ready to face the challenges that the new year will almost certainly bring.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Keep your dog safe this Christmas


Morrisons supermarket caused outrage with their Christmas advert featuring a dog taking a Christmas pudding from a little boy. Although it clearly shows the dog just leaving the pudding in a plant pot it was thought that perhaps pet owners would be encouraged to feed their dogs Christmas pudding without knowing the risks.

As many of us are already aware the dried fruit in the pudding is highly toxic to dogs. Many owners have come forward with horror stories of their beloved pets consuming just a small amount of raisins and not living to tell the tale.

Please take care - none of us want to be calling the emergency vets over the holidays.
