It is no bother. Dogs for disabled was collectiong outside of local Tesco's a couple of weeks ago, they had there very well behaved dogs there. Marie and Venny were local, So I thought that was maybe why they were there. do hope they also had a successful day.

Hi Andy,
Would it be a good idea to make this a sticky?
Or even have a separate Charity thread?
Best wishes, Ulla

Hi Cate,
making a topic sticky puts it at the top of the postings, rather than it being bumped to the top after a reply,
overall fundraising is good for the charity, I have a yearly fundraiser called the 'dogs breakfast' in my garden where we sell tea/coffee bacon butties and cake to raise money too , last year the event bought in £1100!

Tried to donate but got the following message, will try again later. We're currently undertaking some essential monthly site maintenance. Our techies are working as fast as they can and we'll be back very soon.
Thanks for your patience. |

Andy, I notice the Pounds for Hounds page has now past it's sell by date but I would still like to make a small donation to this worthwhile cause, how can I do this ?
To an animal lover like myself who couldn't have got through the last couple of decades of illness and disability without her moggies, the idea of training a dog to not only act as companion but to assist in practical ways is a really brilliant concept.
Best wishes to Henry !

What a handsome and talented young man your Henry is !
I've just made a small donation over the phone [easier for me than filling out a long online form] and they've added me to their mailing list.
Was interested to see they're based in Banbury, I live in Bicester which is the next town along.

Just checked out details of open days on the website - unfortunately at the moment I wouldn't be able to get there for the required 10.30am start due to poor health in the mornings but I'll bare it in mind if my morning health improves - it certainly does sound interesting.
