Story
GIVING A DOG A LOVING HOME AND ENSURING ANIMAL WELFARE IS THE MOST REWARDING THING A HUMAN CAN DO! THEY ARE TOTALLY RELIANT ON US AS HUMANS TO ACT HUMANELY AND TO PROVIDE CARE AND NURTURING. THE LOVE THEY PROVIDE IN RETURN IS ENDLESS.
SEEING IMAGES OF ABUSED ANIMALS IS SIMPLY HEARTBREAKING. THERE ARE SO MANY WONDERFUL DOGS THAT GET DESTROYED ON A DAILY BASIS WHICH ABSOLUTELY SADNESS ME.
THEY COULD POTENTIALLY HAVE BEEN A 'LIFE SAVER' TO SOME HUMAN LOOKING FOR A COMPANION AND A "BEST FRIEND", BUT SADLY DUE TO FUNDING AND OVERCROWDING NEITHER GET OFFERED THAT CHANCE.
KNOWING THERE ARE SO MANY ABANDONED DOGS OUT THERE THAT CAN HAVE A CHANCE OF BEING SAVED IS IN OUR HANDS AND WE CAN MAKE THAT DIFFERENCE. SELFLESS PEOPLE LIKE RUSS AND TRACY DEDICATE THEIR ENTIRE LIVES AND TIME TO SAVE THE DOGS AND TAKE THEM IN. NOT EVERYONE IS ABLE TO PROVIDE A FOREVER HOME BUT FUNDING WILL MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE.
RUSS AND TRACY WHO RUN LCDR, A NON PROFIT, SELF- FUNDED RESCUE IS BASED IN DERBY. THEIR AIM IS TO SAVE AS MANY UNWANTED AND ABUSED DOGS AS POSSIBLE.
IN 2016, AFTER LOSING MY BELOVED DOG, I APPROACHED THEM AND ADOPTED MY TWO VERY MUCH LOVED DOGS, HONEY AND DOTTIE THROUGH THEM. IT CHANGED MY LIFE COMPLETELY FOR THE BETTER! MOST CERTAINLY THE MOST REWARDING THING I'VE EVER DONE. THE LIFE AND JOY THESE TWO BRING CAN'T EVER BE FULLY DESCRIBED.
THEIR GOAL IN RESCUE!
THEIR GOAL IS TOO SAVE AS MANY DOGS THAT HAVE BEEN LET DOWN IN THE PAST. THEY TAKE IN ABANDONED AND ABUSED DOGS AND WORK ALONGSIDE ANIMAL WELFARE. THE DOGS THEY TAKE INTO CARE ARE FULLY ASSESSED, VACS, NEUTERED, CHIPPED, FLEAD AND WORMED. WHILST THEY ARE IN FOSTER THEY ARE TREATED AS FAMILY MEMBERS. THE MAJORITY OF THE DOGS COME INTO THEIR OWN HOME WHERE THEIR OWN DOGS TEACH THEM HOW TO BE A DOG AND HOW TOO PLAY, WHICH IS VERY BENEFICIAL FOR THE RESCUE BABIES.
HELP THEIR CAUSE!
Your support and contributions will enable them to help them to get as many dogs vacs and neutered and placed into forever loving homes. Donations will help towards the never ending vets bills, towards operations, neutering and providing lifelong medications for dogs, travel cost and other fees.
The money you donate on here goes directly to Life Commitment Dog Rescue's account. Many, many thanks!
The best way I'm able to provide my support is through commitment of my time and skill hence why I'm hosting a 7 hour dance marathon. Your donations will most certainly spur me on and make my feet move faster for this good cause! Please feel free to come and support the event and to come and keep me awake.
