Real Experiences
"Great place with fantastic staff the buildings and the grounds were lovely and clean,nearly the whole site was accessible in my wheelchair so I managed to take part in walking a dog. We ended up adopting and the whole process was made easy and any questions were answered. And it's good to know you can contact them with any problems and they are ready to help."

"Adopted our beautiful boy Stormzy from here and we could not be happier. The staff were all incredibly helpful and clearly dedicated to the dogs. They made the introduction with Stormzy and our current dog perfect. We were provided everything we needed to know before adopting Stormzy including him coming for a day visit as well as a weekend sleep over to check all was good 😊 And most importantly we could tell Stormzy loved the staff and appreciated all of the work they had put into helping him and making him comfortable at dogs trust ready to transition to his forever home. Thank you so much for helping us bring the lovely Stormzy home"

"Great place with amazing staff looking after some unfortunate pups. We have had two dogs from here and they have turned out to be amazing family members. You just have to look past some of the behaviour of the dog's as their so different with you at home when their not stressed, like our collie (pictured) she really didn't settle in to kennel life but such a calm well behaved dog she hardly ever needs a lead on walks, sits for cars and curve on her own."

"Terrible. Avoid. I Tried to take my English bully here which was heartbreaking enough as I can’t afford the rising vets bills and work commitments getting more and more. they wanted me to get her vet health checked before they would even consider taking her, That’s the whole point, I can’t afford it, vets these days are robbers!!! There’s no wonder people have to leave dogs tied to the fence. Poor dogs. 😡😞"
