My name is Kayleigh and I am the Supporter Relations Officer for Dogs Trust Glasgow Rehoming Centre.

I wanted to let you know I offer free talks to adult community and social groups across Scotland.

So who are we, what do we do and what does the future hold? Well, I won’t go into too much detail now (I’ll save that for the presentation!). However, in simple terms, we love and care for around 15,000 dogs every year at our network of rehoming centres and we never put down a healthy dog.

Aside from providing a rehoming service for the dogs that come to us, we also run various other projects, campaigns and services, like the Canine Care Card Service. This is a free service, whereby, in the event of the owner’s death, we will look after their dog, providing them with all the care they need until we can find a responsible, loving new home for them. This is often of great concern to the elderly, as their dog may be their only friend and companion – Dogs Trust can give them peace of mind, knowing that their canine companion’s future is safe, should the worst happen to them.
