Many of the dogs who arrive at Bristol A.R.C. come from difficult circumstances. They're often scared, stressed, and may be in pain from a medical condition they've not yet been treated for. While our dedicated team do all they can to help our animals feel comfortable and happy while they're here, the kennels can be an especially stressful environment for them. Beyond their daily walks and enrichment activity, they need a space to relax.

That's why were creating a new dog sensory garden, to help reduce their stress and anxiety and encourage our dogs to feel more secure in their surroundings by using different smells, textures, sounds and tastes.

Please support Georgia, Kadie, Ted, Kaya and Kelly as they take on their Kennel Sleepover to help make this dream a reality and offer our dogs the gift of relaxation during their stay with us.
