Dogs Trust Manchester opened in 2014, thanks in part to funding from our generous supporters. The centre was designed with rescue dogs in mind - from the air-conditioned kennels, to sandpits and water fountains to play in. There’s also a full veterinary and surgical suite on site. Dogs Trust residents may not have had the best starts in life. But our 40-strong team of dog experts in Manchester ensure they receive the best possible care while they wait for their forever homes.

Please visit the website regularly for photos and updates on the dogs in the centre. If you're interested in offering a dog in our care a forever home, find out how rehoming works.

Woodrock Animal Rescue is a leading non-profit, pro-life, rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing organisation in South Africa. Woodrock Animal Rescue was founded in 1992 by Nicholas and Stella (Estelle) Meldau, whose focus, passion and drive made their animal rescue vision become a reality. The rescue centre originated in the Johannesburg suburban areas of Woodmead and Khyber Rock, hence the name Woodrock. Woodrock Animal Rescue is now based on 8.5 hectares in the beautiful Hennops River Valley, South-West of Pretoria. Woodrock Animal Rescue assists homeless, abused, neglected, stray, injured, ill, geriatric and unwanted animals that would otherwise have miserable lives and premature deaths – animals who have no voice of their own! Woodrock Animal Rescue is one of the oldest, independent, non-profit, pro-life domestic animal rescue centres in South Africa. Our Ethos is Education and Sterilisation.
My name is Luis Guillermo Castro Martin. I am a philosopher specialized in philosophy of mind and language. In particular, I am interested in the nature of consciousness, and the way in which we experience and interpret the world. I started my studies at the Central University of Venezuela in 2006, where I obtained a bachelor’s degree in philosophy (2011) and a master’s degree in logic and philosophy of science (2015). In 2012, the university offered me a position as a professor of philosophy and I taught several courses there until 2017, when I enrolled in a PhD program at the University of Genoa, Italy. I have also published several papers in philosophy journals and participated in various international events. In 2020, while writing my PhD thesis, I realized that I had been immersed in philosophy for too long and decided to use my experience to rejoin the real world. In my years studying philosophy, I have learned many things, but the most important is that the world is what we make of it, there is no ultimate truth, no final word. We create our reality. Knowledge has somehow separated us from others and nature, perhaps it can also reunite us. Although I was born in Venezuela, my family is a blending of different nationalities and traditions. I have lived and studied in different countries, which are all part of who I am and what I want to be. My actions define me, not my nationality or my origins. I do not believe in borders or limits; they are only in our minds. The sensation of not belonging can be liberating, once we realize that, by not belonging somewhere, we belong everywhere. I speak three languages (Spanish, English, and Italian) and I enjoy learning from other cultures, as well as transmitting the values of my own. I also enjoy music, sports and nature. I am the author of “Fragments of Mind” on Substack. A space for thinking outside the box, while discussing philosophical matters.
Project Dog is a non-profit organisation that is run by a small and dedicated group of volunteers who are passionate about the rights of all animals and committed to giving every dog the opportunity of a healthy and happy life. We do this not only by means of rehabilitation which is most often implemented by the network of “foster parents” of Project Dog, but also in our care to place each dog not only in a good home, but in a home that is suitable for the personality of the dog. As a pro-life organisation, we are committed to helping each and every dog that we rescue – regardless of breed, size or background. Each dog is treated with kindness and dignity until such time as we find “the perfect match” in terms of their new home. Our organisation is funded, in the main, by the very same people who foster, care for, rehabilitate and re-home the dogs that come to us. For this reason, we are extremely grateful for any donation or contribution made to Project Dog, no matter how big or small.
I am 56 years old and love life ! and am engaged to a wonderful man and we have been together for 9 years. I have 1 son who lives in Houston, Texas with his lovely wife and my 2 beautiful grandchildren. I have 1 sister who is sadly disabled. She has Motor Neuron Disease and is paralysed from the neck down. She has had this debilitating illness since 1998. I care very deeply for her and continue to walk this hard, painful journey with her. I would love to one day open up a strung of Care Homes called Mandy in honour of her. Watching your disabled sister struggle every day has been heartbreaking, but through this I have learnt the art of caring, giving and kindness. To be able to help and be there for those less fortunate than you is a heartwarming experience and exceptionally rewarding. My passion is travelling – I absolutely LOVE IT ! My sport is Golf and because I have such an adventurous, extrovert personality I also love a lot of other things like Boating, Fishing, Cooking, Drinking wine and socialising. The list is so long because I am always willing to try new things and experience new places. I am an extrovert in personality and love bringing out the best in people. My profession at the moment is a Key accounts Manager for a Surgical Equipment company. I have been with them for 14 years. I have vast experience in Sales and Customer service and represent my company by calling on all Hospitals – Private and Provincial – throughout the entire Eastern Cape. I work with doctor’s in theatre and am skilled in the sale of Medical Equipment for Trauma, Gynie, Urology, General Surgery, Cardiology, Neurology, Gastro-Enterology, Ultrasound etc. Prior to being a Surgical Rep I was a Medical Rep for 20 years calling on General Practioners, Pharmacists and Physicians selling Pharmaceutical Drugs. I also have experience in the setting up of Vaccine Clinics and GIT Units. My passion is service and looking after my customers. I love to make a difference in everything that I do and work hard. I love to make people smile ! I am a great organiser and get things done. I am very loyal in business and in my private life and am committed to whatever I sign up for. You will always be able to rely on me. I would say that I am a Spiritual person. I have a genuine passion for seeking out the truth of all things. And placing myself on a sacred path of self discovery. I learn every day and try to live my life with a curious, grateful heart. I believe we can all be kind if we want to be and we can all make a difference in someone’s life if we want to. I want to make a difference in the world ! I know I can.
15 years in the making and I have finally landed in a position to start the one thing that has been my passion since I was able to talk. Those that know me know that I have dedicated my entire life to my animals, learning from them and creating the best life possible for them, they are my world and the reason I get up in the morning. Here is a little bit about what I will be doing with this newest venture; At Elysian Fields Horse & Hound Sanctuary, we specialize in young animals that need education, confidence and a nutritional diet to reach their full potential as a beloved family member. Tolerance and respect is fostered between all creatures here. Every resident receives a fine-tuned diet and a daily routine based on their needs and won't be available for adoption until I am confident that they are ready. I am about quality over quantity. Each horse and greyhound that enters the program will receive the best possible care to become a valued family member to ensure that they never find themselves homeless again. This means that I will only be able to take on a small few at a time, with the prospect of expanding once I find the perfect property with the space I'll need. Rescue, Rehabilitate, Rehome!
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) was founded in 1980 and is dedicated to establishing and defending the rights of all animals. PETA operates under the simple principle that animals are not ours to experiment on, eat, wear, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way. PETA educates policymakers and the public about animal abuse and promotes kind treatment of animals. PETA is an international nonprofit charitable organization based in Norfolk, Virginia, with affiliates worldwide. PETA opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview, and focuses its attention on the four areas in which the largest numbers of animals suffer the most intensely for the longest periods of time: in laboratories, in the food industry, in the clothing trade, and in the entertainment industry. They also work on a variety of other issues, including the cruel killing of rodents, birds, and other animals who are often considered “pests” as well as cruelty to domesticated animals. PETA works through public education, cruelty investigations, research, animal rescue, legislation, special events, celebrity involvement, and protest campaigns. PETA has always been known for uncompromising, unwavering views on animal rights. They aren’t afraid to make the difficult comparisons, say the unpopular thing, or point out the uncomfortable truth, if it means that animals will benefit. The very heart of all of PETA’s actions is the idea that it is the right of all beings –human and nonhuman alike– to be free from harm. Our world is plagued with many serious problems, all of which deserve our attention. Cruelty to animals is one of them. PETA’s “Uncompromising Stands on Animal Rights” is an overview of what sets PETA apart. Their positions may be controversial, but they are always true to their driving mission: to stop animal abuse worldwide. We have the power to spare animals excruciating pain by making better choices about the food we eat, the things we buy, and the activities we support.
Founded in 1998 by Randy Grim, Stray Rescue has been saving the underdog for over twenty years. Randy rescued homeless and abused dogs off the streets and realized there were no other resources available to help them. The 501(c)3 nonprofit organization opened its first shelter in Lafayette Square on 18th Street. Randy purchased the building with his life savings. For nearly two decades, Randy’s unwavering commitment to saving the dogs that other shelters turned away has resulted in thousands of lives being saved from the horrors of street life before being adopted by their loving families. In July 2010, Stray Rescue of St. Louis moved into a much larger facility in downtown St. Louis. With the new space, the organization added a trauma center and vet clinic, offices for administration, and over one hundred large, clean dog kennels. Fast-forward to 2020 - Stray Rescue of St. Louis has grown to be the home of over 60 committed and loving staff members, over 1,000 volunteers who generously donate their time, and more than 400 foster families who open their home and ultimately are the reason we can save so many today. Stray Rescue always sticks up for the underdog, whether that be a skinny, malnourished animals living on the streets, a dog with neurological issues living in a high-kill shelter, victims of hurricanes or flooding whose families left them behind, and more. There are no limits to what we can do. With your help and support, the sky is the limit. What sets Stray Rescue of St. Louis apart in the animal welfare community near and far? We seek out and take in those who no other organization will help or would simply euthanize because they are too expensive to heal. We take the abandoned, beaten, bred, fought, injured, terrified, defeated and betrayed. We see beyond their brokenness and are here to pick up the pieces to make these special animals whole again. We see the individual and know that there’s no “one size fits all” treatment plan. The minute they enter our doors, we look in their eyes and promise them ALL the second chance they deserve for health, home, commitment and love. Because these animals come in with a story that would give us all nightmares, it takes them longer to open up, trust and believe in humankind again. But with patience and time – always on their unique schedule – we see the light shine in their eyes again. Animals have an amazing ability to forgive, which never ceases to amaze us.
For more than 80 years, St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center has been dedicated to helping any animal in need, regardless of species, size, or temperament. With a people-focused, community-based approach, we treat every animal as an individual and emphasize specialized care for both animals and their families. St. Hubert’s operates three animal welfare campuses: Madison, North Branch and Noah’s Ark and provides progressive animal control services in 18 municipalities in New Jersey. We support the communities we serve with programs that help animals stay with their families, such as pet food banks, vaccine clinics and emergency pet boarding. But we’re more than the local shelter. Through our merger with the Humane Rescue Alliance in Washington, D.C., we are the largest provider of animal services in our region, touching the lives of over 100,000 animals each year. Our WayStation program is the nation’s preeminent transport program and has moved over 20,000 pets from areas of need to places of opportunity through a network of more than 90 sheltering organizations. Through our Give Back program, we have invested more than $350,000 back into our source shelter partners whose communities are often struggling under the weight of pet overpopulation so that they can address the root causes in their own community, based on their unique needs.
Founded in 1876, the SPCA Serving Erie County is the second-oldest humane society in the USA. As the view and treatment of animals have changed over time, so too have their efforts. However, their commitment to providing care and compassion to all animals in need has never wavered. In the late 1800s, the organization helped horses and other animals working on the Erie Canal. In the early 1900s, as more animals started living in homes as pets, their work played a more prominent role in the lives of dogs and cats. Today, as their community’s impact on the environment grows, they see more wild animals needing assistance to survive. The SPCA Serving Erie County is a place for animals who, in their greatest time of need, have nowhere else to turn. We invite you to learn more about our organization and how you can help put an end to animal cruelty. The SPCA promises to transform the lives of animals in Erie County, NY and beyond –whether neglected, beaten, starved, abandoned, injured, or unwanted. The SPCA Serving Erie County continues to grow and carry out their mission thanks to loyal, dedicated people. People who know the love and affection of a pet. People who care about homeless animals. People who will not tolerate animal abuse and cruelty.

Wings of Rescue is the biggest air transporter of at-risk shelter pets in the world. We are unique in that in a matter of hours we are able to fly a large number of dogs and cats on long distance flights to markets in need of adoptable pets. At Wings of Rescue all our pets are examined by licensed veterinarians and issued health certificates prior to their boarding our planes. Our precious cargo is treated with the utmost care, respect and safety and our pets arrive healthier and less stressed than those transported on land transports. Pets transported long distances by land are all too often not taken out of their kennels for potty breaks and arrive stressed and sick. The average length of stay for a pet transported by Wings of Rescue in his/her receiving shelter is 3 1/2 days before they are adopted into wonderful loving homes.
The Whatcom Humane Society (WHS) has been caring for animals throughout Whatcom County since 1902. As the oldest non-profit animal welfare organization in Whatcom County, WHS is committed to caring for any animal in need. As an open-admission animal shelter, WHS turns no animal away, regardless of the animal's age, breed, temperament, physical or medical condition. Our dedicated staff and volunteers care for approximately 4,500 domestic, wild and farm animals annually. We currently operate 3 shelter facilities – a domestic animal shelter, a wildlife rehabilitation center and a farm facility. In addition, WHS provides 24 hours a day animal control & rescue services for the majority of Whatcom County including the Cities of Bellingham, Ferndale, Blaine, Sumas, Everson, unicorporated Whatcom County and has relationships with both the Lummi & Nooksack Indian Reservations. The Whatcom Humane Society turns no animal away regardless of the animal's breed, age, temperament, physical or medical condition. Last year, we provided care and comfort to over 5,000 homeless, unwanted and abused animals in our community.
We Care Animal Rescue was established in 1982 to improve the quality of life for companion animals in Napa Valley by providing shelter, compassionate care and community resources. As a nonprofit organization, we are funded entirely by the generosity of donors who share this profound commitment. Our programs provide life-saving care, valuable emotional and monetary support, and critical animal welfare resources in our community. Shelter staff and volunteers provide a healthy and engaging environment to more than 120 cats. Our residents often come from local municipal shelters and homes where their owners are facing hardships and can no longer care for them. Communal living, along with an expert staff, provide them with the second chance they deserve to find a home. Many of the animals in our care are unsuitable for rehoming due to age, illness or temperament. As the only shelter in Napa County that offers hospice care for cats, we welcome felines that would be euthanized elsewhere and provide them with a peaceful sanctuary for their golden years.
United Dog Rescue’s mission is to rescue shelter, stray, abandoned and surrendered dogs and to place them in loving homes. Our work provides refuge and a new chance for homeless dogs, enriching both their lives and the lives of the people who adopt them. Based in Oakland Park, (Broward County), Florida, United Dog Rescue is an accredited 501(c)(3) non-for-profit organization. United Dog Rescue is an all-condition, all-breed, all-size, and all-age dog rescue & adoption center. Roughly 90 percent of the dogs we rescue come from public shelters. As a non-profit organization, we rely entirely upon donations, adoption fees and thrift store sales. All donations received go to the care, aid, and adoption of much deserving dogs as well as growth and sustainability of our non-profit organization. Working closely with them, we are able to help reduce euthanasia rates. United has been particularly successful in rescuing and placing large breed dogs – the ones most at risk, including pregnant or nursing mothers.
Underdog Pet Rescue is an all-breed companion animal rescue based out of Dane County, Wisconsin. Our mission is to find permanent homes for animals in need, and to enrich lives by strengthening the connection between animals and people through community services and outreach. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. In 2016, we were able to provide care for and adopt out 96% of the animals we transferred in. That means that of all the animals we took in, many of whom were sick and behaviorally unevaluated, 4% passed away of natural causes (i.e. failure to thrive in kittens) or were euthanized for severe behavioral or medical concerns. We offer expanded vet services* five days a week, with wellness checks, vaccines, blood work, dental cleanings, spay and neuter surgeries, and surgical mass removals. We also have x-ray and diagnostic capabilities on-site. Busy schedule? We can accommodate you with drop-off clinic appointments.
Tri-County Animal Rescue is a 100% no kill, nonprofit 501(c)3 animal shelter based in Boca Raton, Florida. Our goal is to prevent the killing of over 170,000 unwanted pets in Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties each year. Since 1996, we have saved over 60,000 domestic animals from being euthanized. We also work with several local organizations and the local school district to educate the community on animal awareness. At Tri-County Animal Rescue, we believe that every animal deserves to live a happy and healthy life. Our mission aims to shelter and provide a comfortable home for all of the animals that are placed in our facility. We consider each cat and dog a member of our family, loving and caring for them with the utmost respect and tenderness until we can place them in their safe, happy, forever home. Every day, we witness animals who were once in despair—stray, neglected, abused, malnourished, or unwanted—leaving our care as happy, healthy animals. To see them walk out of our doors as completely changed animals is a joy that is difficult to express.
Since our humble beginnings in 1943, Animal Friends has stayed true to our founders’ mission to serve as an ongoing and compassionate solution to pet overpopulation. Today, more than three quarters of a century later, we remain committed to the vision that no animal should ever be unnecessarily euthanized. At Animal Friends it is our mission to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome animals in crisis, ensure healthy pets through education, advocacy and affordable services, and inspire a community where the animal-human bond is celebrated and nurtured. We believe in a humane and compassionate future for every animal friend. Without the dedicated staff, our lifesaving work simply wouldn’t be possible. Meet the compassionate individuals who are hard at work each and every day making Animal Friends’ mission a reality.
The SPCA Of The Triad has been caring for neglected, abandoned and injured animals for 22 years. We have witnessed many come into our facility so scared they simply can’t move, urinating from sheer fear. We are fully committed to providing the life they have always deserved. Together, we can transform the landscape for our animal friends by helping the SPCA provide food, medical care, spay and neuter, and a warm, safe haven. We have a loving staff, and dedicated volunteers that help these beautiful animals become trusting, loving companions. We could not provide our nurturing services without your continued donations and support. Your support saves lives. Please consider a gift offering to the SPCA Of The Triad this year. To view other ways you can help, please visit our "Want To Help?" tab above. We invite you to our facility to share a little love. You will receive more than a little in return. The entire SPCA Of The Triad family is extremely grateful for every gesture of kindness. The hesitant wags, gentle leans, submissive rolls, and soulful eyes tell us so.
WAGS is funded and run. WAGS is a 501c3 non-profit organization that is contracted by two cities with a predetermined estimated amount money to care for the pets that would be brought in based on previous year’s data. In fact, the contract spans 3 years. It is not lucrative money but limited monies to care for the cities stray, lost and homeless animals. To point out, there are no extra funds to handle hoarder and puppy mill cases (at least in this contract). Additionally, possibly due to our good reputation, WAGS has already exceeded the number of pets brought to us in the contracted estimated number. Possibly, we have more pets on property than anticipated because we do our best to rehabilitate and care for animals under our roof. We sometimes assume we have more homeless and lost pets because of our philosophy of care. Overall, WAGS cares for about 400 pets on property on any given day. WAGS has many programs to help pets get adopted. Notably, We strive to provide great medical care. To emphasize, we use standard protocols for care of the pets and facility. With this in mind, we pride ourselves on keeping WAGS in clear order and renovate when ever we have the funds to improve a room or two. We have vast volunteer opportunities, sponsorship, and donation options. Also, We are always open to suggestions for improvement and welcome the community in daily.
I am passionate about my work. Because I love what I do, I have a steady source of motivation that drives me to do my best. In my last job, this passion led me to challenge myself daily and learn new skills that helped me to do better work. I am ambitious and driven. I thrive on challenges and constantly set goals for myself, so I have something to strive toward. I’m not comfortable settling, and I’m always looking for an opportunity to do better and achieve greatness. I am an excellent communicator. I pride myself on making sure people have the right information because it drives better results. Most business issues stem from poor communication, so I feel a responsibility to keep everyone on the same page. I am results-oriented, constantly checking in with the goal to determine how close or how far away we are and what it will take to make it happen. I find this pressure inspiring and a great motivator for the rest of the team. I am highly organized. I always take notes, and I use a series of tools to help myself stay on top of deadlines. I like to keep a clean workspace and create a logical filing method, so I’m always able to find what I need. I find this increases efficiency and helps the rest of the team stay on track, too. I’m a people-person. I love meeting new people and learning about their lives and their backgrounds. I can almost always find common ground with strangers, and I like making people feel comfortable in my presence.
