Hello everyone

Just seen this thread - I am a volunteer for Rochdale Dog Rescue so if anyone has any questions any time please do feel free to ask and I will answer to the best of my abilities!

Sadly again this time of year we are overwhelmed with dogs coming into our care from the pound who have been abandoned, space and funds are increasingly stretched with the sheer number of gorgeous dogs we see - but we do our best to ensure they are safe and loved however long they are with us.

Thx
Emma

what site are you trying to get on?

Rochdale Dog Rescue work closely with the pound where the dogs are to ensure they are not put to sleep; if we did not exist then the fate of the unclaimed dogs is likely to be very different.

The main work is finding the dogs places with reputable rescues around the UK; i.e. those who will assess, neuter, microchip, vaccinate, have a non destruct policy etc.

The dogs are not signed over into the care of RDR until the 8th day as they can legally be reclaimed up until then.. and are not rehomed from there as we will not have seen them at that stage, they will have only had a basic temprament and health check at the pound and its not something any reputable rescue would do. Any dogs that come into our care and go up for rehoming will have been assessed, chipped, neutered etc and they do have an adoption fee.

This helps us to continue to be able to save more death row dogs; and doesent cover the cost of neutering, vaccinating, chipping and the cost of emergency boarding at £5 a day. We can only continue to save the dogs whilst we have funds to do all of this. Please do have a look around the website as it explains how we work in more detail :-)

Hi, could someone please give me advice on how I can help with these poor dogs on death row?? I can provide a temp home (foster) a dog whilst he or she is looking for a new home rather than the poor animal be put to sleep. I know foster homes are in great need and I would be honoured to provide a loving home for a poor dog.....

Please get intouch!

Hi there.. You could PM Kelly Joy.. She does deal with getting foster homes checked etc sorts all aspects of rescue/foster/adoption..

Oh thank you, I will work out how to pm her as I havent been on this site long.... Just been on the Rochdale Dogs Rescue site and sent them a message about being an emergency foster home.

I am currently saving money so I can pay for a 10ft x 10ft run in my garden for two foster dogs.... to help with all the neglected and abused animals in the world - I feel that if each person did there bit it would help so much. I havent got much money and due to raising my daughter alone its a struggle but I would give my last £1 to a dog if I had too.... I love animals, its disgusting how people abuse there trust.
