Founded in 1891, the Dogs Trust (formerly the National Canine Defence League) is the largest dog welfare charity in the UK. Their mission is to bring about the day when all dogs can enjoy a happy life, free from the threat of unnecessary destruction. Each year the Dogs Trust care for around 16,000 dogs in a nationwide network of 18 Rehoming Centres. No healthy dog is ever destroyed. They run subsidised neutering campaigns in areas of the UK with the most acute stray dog problems. Education Officers give thousands of classroom presentations every year. Free teaching resources are made available to all schools in the UK. Their Freedom Project helps pet owners who are fleeing domestic violence by fostering their animals while they start a new life. Their Hope Project gives preventative veterinary care to dogs belonging to homeless people. For more information, please follow the link to visit their website.
