Story
As previously mentioned, I am raising funds for Hero Paws, a charity working closely with retired Military Working Dogs. Being an owner of two wonderful dogs myself, with experience working close to Military dogs, I feel there is no charity closer to home than this.
We know times have been hard however, any donations would greatly help me achieve the goals Hero Paws desperately need for their dog sanctuary.
Here is some information extracted from heropawsuk.co.uk,

About Us
Who We Are
We are Jaime, Amber and Sam all ex Military Dog Handlers. We have also rehomed Military working dogs and know first hand what’s required to successfully turn these soldier dogs into pets.
Our Aim
Our ultimate goal is to set up a sanctuary where up to 20 ex working service dogs can be cared for and trained so they can eventually find their perfect forever home. We endeavour to match the right dog with the right home, no matter how long it takes.
Many people are unaware that retired service dogs do not receive financial support in their retirement from the force they served with, meaning the responsibility for their care and vet bills fall solely to their ex-handler or new owner. Unable to get pet insurance due to their working life, many are left with ongoing vet bills which can amount to thousands. Hero Paws provides much needed financial support to these unsung dog heroes and their owners to enable them to have a long and happy retirement.
Thank you ever so much for the support.
