The Rescue Hotel

Through our ‘Happy Paws’ program, we’re delighted to support the amazing work of ‘The Rescue Hotel’ and many other charities helping dogs in need.

At The Rescue Hotel, the dedication is inspiring:

They support approximately 60 dogs in their care at any one time

🐾 850 dogs in need are supported annually

🐾 On average, 350 dogs each year are never reclaimed and are placed for adoption

Their on-site vet helps keep dogs with their families by offering support not only to the dogs at the home but also provides low-cost basic health care to those in the community – no eligibility requirements, just help when it’s needed most ❤️

In the past year alone, the team has:

🐾 Carried out 1,000+ surgeries

🐾 Neutered 943 dogs

🐾 Delivered 2,472 vaccinations

Their mission is simple but powerful: to find the right forever family (and comfy sofa!) for every dog, offering UK-wide adoptions focused on the perfect match.
As a team of dog lovers, we’re incredibly proud to stand alongside them and all the paws they protect.

I’m going home with Forthglade

“We’re over the moon to be supported by Forthglade for several reasons; we genuinely believe the key to happy, healthy, adoptable-dogs is a nutritious diet and that’s why we love giving our dog’s Forthglade dinner’s, we’re investing the money we’ve saved thanks to their food donations into supporting our dog’s welfare in other ways, and last but not least, because they genuinely care.”
