The Birkett-Smith Animal Sanctuary Animal rescue service in Bridport, Dorset

About This Centre

The Birkett~Smith Animal Sanctuary was founded a few years ago on a smallholding in Dorset and formalised as a registered Charity not long after. We provide forever homes for domestic, farm and wildlife animals. Most have behavioural issues, are aggressive, old, disabled, human scared etc...so we basically take the animals that stand little or no chance or gaining homes let alone the security of a forever home. Our c200 animals include dogs, cats, pigs, sheep, horses, all farm birds, emus and even a seagull! We are one of the the very few UK sanctuaries that will take aggressive and fear aggressive dogs as we have a no kill policy full stop.
