Doris Banham Dog Rescue are so proud and privileged to be presented their cheque for £25,000 on the site of their brand new kennel block - a dream that the Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust has made come true by awarding us their 40th Anniversary Special Project Award. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and the hearts of all the dogs in our care.
As we struggle to cope with the present national animal welfare crisis, the donation of this kennel block at our main kennels by the Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust is a real Godsend. During this crisis we have had to take an increased number of emergency boarding kennels in order to save dogs' lives when our main kennels are full which has placed us under enormous financial pressure. We were 'the last chance to live' for these dogs who would all have died if we had not taken extra kennels. This block will allow us to move 10 dogs at a time out of emergency boarding to our main kennels for rehoming thus allowing us to reduce costs and increase our rehoming rate. We are so very grateful to Jean Sainsbury for giving us this amazing lifeline.

The sands of time are running down for stray and neglected dogs in council pounds. Help us to get them on the road to recovery and into the forever home that they deserve.
-
Just returned from holiday with a Fistful of Dollars, or Euro or Yen? If you don't think it's worth waiting in line at the bank to change them back then there's always somebody willing to take them off your hands.
-
Saving dogs from the council pound and nursing them back to health and a sense of normality is just the first step. We have only so much space and a seemingly endless stream of new dogs in need of our help. Could you be the final link in the chain that offers one of our dogs the loving home that they deserve?
-
If you are unable to assist financially and not currently able to offer a home to one of our dogs there are still a number of different ways in which you can lend a hand.

BUDDY SAYS ‘THANK YOU FOR SAVING ME - I’M NOW SEEKING MY SOECIAL FAMILY’
Buddy is a very happy dog, whose tail never stops wagging! He is a strong boy and will need a strong owner.
Buddy is now 16 months old and was due to die at the pound last December, as his time was running out. Thanks to your generous support, we rescued Buddy as his ‘last chance to live’. Just look at Buddy now ❤️
Buddy hasn’t been cat tested and would need introductions with dogs in the potential adopter’s household, to see if a bond is possible.
If you feel you can take Buddy into your heart and home, please call 07984 143 253 or 07498 066 279 for more information and fill in this form
www.dorisbanhamdogrescue.org/wp/apply-to-adopt-2/
Our search for the right home for Buddy may take a while and we would be so very grateful if you would consider supporting him whilst he waits. We have over 140 dogs in our care now who are all depending on the survival of our Charity for them to have a future. Times are very desperate and frightening at the moment and we need your support more than ever to continue our life saving work.
Please, please if you can even donate £1 it WILL make a difference and will go directly to paying for Buddy’s care as he progresses on his journey.

TYSON SAYS ‘I’VE WORKED HARD AND BEEN A GOOD BOY IN MY TRAINING. NOW I’M LOOKING FOR MY SPECIAL FAMILY - COULD THAT BE YOU? ‘ ❤️
Back in 2023, via your generous support, we were able to rescue Tyson from the pound and give him another chance at life.
He has learned to be the good boy we all knew he could be and has come so far, benefitting from the training programme, love and attention that’s been given to Tyson via the dedicated kennels team.
His progress continues and Tyson needs a Bull-Breed experienced owner to continue to support him, as he’s still a young boy.
🐾Tyson can be nervous of strangers, so any potential adopters would be required to make numerous visits to the kennels, to build up a relationship of trust and confidence.
🐾He’s strong on the lead, so needs a strong owner
🐾He’s not been cat tested
🐾Tyson requires an adult only home
🐾Tyson would need introductions to any other dogs in the potential adopter’s household, to see if a bond is possible
🐾Tyson will make a loving and loyal companion.
If you feel you can take Tyson into your heart and home, please call 07984 143 253 or 07498 066 279 for more information and fill in this form

ADEY IS SUCH A HAPPY BOY, NOW LOOKING FOR HIS NEW HOME - COULD THAT BE YOU?
Happily, these days, Adey’s tail never stops wagging! He’s such a friendly boy who can be strong on the lead. Initially excitable, he does calm down after several minutes.
Adey has come a long way since entering our care. His situation was desperate, as he was being kept outside in freezing temperatures, huddled on a concrete step.
Adey was being kept alive by a kindly neighbour throwing him food. That neighbour was called Adrian. The community begged us to save Adey. He was pitifully thin and weak. After a lot of TLC and healing, Adey (named after his very compassionate neighbour Adrian) is now strong and seeking his new special owner. He’ll make a wonderful loving companion.
Adey hasn’t been cat tested and would need introductions with dogs in the potential adopter’s household, to see if a bond is possible.
If you feel you can take Adey into your heart and home, please call 07984 143 253 or 07498 066 279 for more information and fill in this form

‘GOOD BOY MASON’ IS READY FOR HIS SPECIAL FOREVER HOME - COULD THAT BE YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW?
Mason was tied to a door handle when we were asked to take him into our care. We had to do a mad dash to pick him up because things were out of control and he was at severe risk.
But just look at him now - such a good boy, who has worked so well in retraining and is now ready for the loving ‘forever home’ he deserves.
Mason in a very active dog but has recently undergone medical investigations. He suffered a fractured hip as a puppy so will need sensitive care / handling as he has some sensitivities e.g doesn’t like his lower back being touched.
This beautiful Golden Retriever is :
🐾 one year old
🐾 a lovely boy who is high energy and wants to play all the time.
🐾 always happy and loves to walk
🐾 lovely on the lead.
🐾requiring an ‘only dog household’ with no other pets
🐾requiring an ‘adult only’ home
If you are the family whom Mason is waiting for please:
