Have You Used The Map?

You may be travelling around Europe this year for business or pleasure and feel that you want to do something to help stray and abandoned dogs along the way. That’s where our map showing dog rescue centres across Europe can help.

To view the map, just visit dogwelfarenetwork.map and from this map you can then visit your chosen organisation's request page, displaying contact details, general information and suggestions of ways in which to help.

The Network also aims to bring together some of the many separate dog rescue organisations, allowing them to share resources and expertise. In addition to this, we are seeking to change behaviour in European countries so that dog owners neuter their dogs, feed them properly, and take them to the vet when needed.

We’d value your feedback on any dog shelters that you may visit, just contact us via replies@dogwelfarenetwork.co.uk

Wherever you are this spring and summer, see what you can do to help!

How You Can Help

At the Dog Welfare Network, we are aware that there is a huge number of stray, unwanted, uncared for dogs across the world. Although we are based in the UK, we have seen at first hand the plight of these dogs across Europe and witnessed dog shelters struggling to raise funds and meet the demand for safe places for these abandoned animals.

That’s why we’ve launched our website giving information about many of the dog shelters that exist across the UK and the rest of Europe. Our aim is to raise awareness of dog rescue organisations, so that they may come together and pool their resources whilst enabling members of the general public to help in any way that they can.

It can be heartbreaking when travelling to different countries on holiday or for business, to be met by sights of bedraggled unwanted pets. You may often wonder how you can help them, but leave without doing anything, as you’re not sure what to do.

For future trips, just visit our website www.dogwelfarenetwork.co.uk and click on the country in question. This will enable you to find out what local dog rescue centres there are and what you can do to help them. If you visit any of the shelters listed, we would value your feedback via replies@dogwelfarenetwork.co.uk so that we can add up-to-date information and ensure that shelters that are exhibiting bad practice are not being featured on our website.

Thank you for your support.

A Warm Hello From Dog Welfare Network

Allow us to introduce ourselves. We are a new dog welfare information service and contact point that has been set up by a UK animal rescue organisation based in Kent. We aim to provide contact details and information for dog rescue centres across Europe, allowing dog lovers everywhere to improve the lives of abandoned dogs and assist the rescue centres with vital resources.

You may often have noticed bedraggled, stray dogs whilst visiting other countries on holiday or for business trips. This may have made you stop and think about what you could do to help, but you may have had trouble accessing the information that you need.

That’s where our new website comes in. Over the coming months we will be adding the contact details of a number of rescue centres across Europe, together with suggestions of how you can assist them and keeping you informed of our progress.
