Passionate, energetic and experienced with all kinds of dogs and their behavioural quirks? Are you a strong dog handler who is able to work as part of a team, muck in with whatever is needed? Do you have the drive to help us achieve the rescue revolution (kennel free rescue) for the dogs?
Dogs4Rescue isn't your average dog rescue in the UK. Why? Because we're kennel-free! Here, dogs roam freely. They play, live, and love without even realizing they were once homeless. We now operate 2 sites in the Northwest - Eccles and Accrington and will require flexibility with help at times.
Instead of cramped kennels, they snooze on sofas or in the sun, surrounded by a caring pack - living a life full of love and freedom before they're rehomed.
