Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I have 2 rescued lurcher dogs, Tom and Alice, who are very dear to me. They were abandoned, left tied to a tree in a field in Ireland back in 2004. They were found, but then placed on the 7 day 'death row' by the organisation that had found them. Thankfully, they were saved in time and brought to the UK and ended up living with me.

Organisations such as the Dogs Trust work hard to find new homes for abandoned dogs and never put down a healthy dog. My research has found that the Dogs Trust spends money raised wisely, but I think that's because of the level of responsibility they have. I would love to show my support for this organisation, so that more dogs like Tom and Alice can have a future.
