Help Us Heal our Hapmshire Hounds – Urgent Appeal for Vet Bill Support
We're reaching out with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits. Our small dog rescue has been hit hard in recent months with unexpected, life-threatening medical emergencies. Two of our beloved dogs, Dickie and Millie, have needed intensive veterinary care—costing far more than we could have anticipated.
In May, Dickie, a sweet young dog, fell seriously ill after what should have been a routine neuter. He required emergency hospitalisation and specialist care to pull through.
In June, Millie—one of our long-term residents—was diagnosed with haemolytic anaemia, a serious condition requiring ongoing treatment and monitoring. She’s still under vet care and needs regular medication to stay stable.
Most recently, Duke needed hospitalisation to treat Hemorrhagic Gastroenteritis (HGE) caused by an infection. He needed to be on a special diet post hospital, our volunteers made special meals for him and Millie.

Our dedicated vet reserve fund, which we rely on for situations just like these, has now been completely depleted. And yet the care can’t stop.
This is where we need your help. Every pound you give will go directly towards vet bills—helping us pay off the treatment that saved Dickie’s life and continue the essential care that Millie depends on.
We know times are tough for everyone, but even a small donation can make a big difference. If you can give, please do. If not, please share our story. Together, we can give these dogs—and the many others we rescue—the second chance they deserve.
