Four Paws Animal Rescue, Based in South Wales - Rehoming UK wide Options

[Four Paws Animal Rescue]

We are a small independent charity who try to help any animal in need - those that are unwanted or in danger. Primarily however, we tend to take in and rehome dogs, which is where our expertise lies. However, when we do receive cats and other small animals we may enlist the help of other more specialist rescue organisations if we can't rehome them ourselves. We pride ourselves in a non-destruction policy. As far as possible we try to foster dogs in a home environment where they can be assessed and cared for without the stresses of kennels. All our animals receive veterinary care if needed, are vaccinated, wormed, flea treated, and if old enough they are neutered. All prospective new owners are homechecked.

We can only do this with your continued support and are in urgent need of local foster homes and fundraisers, even if it's just spending an hour helping at a Meet & Greet. Find out more on our volunteering page. Find out what we are up to here.

Some of the dogs that we rehome come to us from the local pound. The pounds that we work with have a Put-To-Sleep policy if we are unable to find a rescue space for the dog, once it’s time is up. This makes the task even harder. If we do not have spaces ourselves we will work with other rescues to give these poor dogs a chance of a happy life. We also rehome a number of dogs and cats that have been handed in privately to us.

We rehome dogs countrywide as long as we can find someone in your area who can perform a home check and you are prepared to travel to where the dog is fostered.

Meg (on hold while she loses weight)



Meg is a 4 year old lab girl and her previous owners took the brave decision to hand her in to us for rehoming as they weren't able to sort out her weight issues. I'm sure they will be following her progress.

Meg's first weigh in showed she's 54kg, she's a mid sized lab and her ideal weight would be no more than about 30kg so she needs to lose getting on for half her body weight.

At the moment she's finding it hard to get around and gets quite stiff when she's been laying still for a while but she's enjoying exploring in the snow and she's showing some interest in toys but only in very short bursts.

She's a happy girl, constantly wagging her tail and is always very affectionate and pleased to see everyone. Initially she was a bit shell-shocked by living with 3 dogs as she hasn't been used to it but she's got the measure of them now. Dexter is her favourite and there's a little bit of a love affair going on.

Meg's going to be in foster for a while so that we can get some weight off her. She's on a strict diet of Royal Canin obesity control with only low fat treats.

We're looking forward to seeing the real Meg emerge over the next weeks & months. When the time is right we will be looking for a home where her people are happy to continue her weight loss and exercise regime.

Our conditions of adoption and application form are here http://forum.fourpawsanimalrescue.org.uk/i....php?board=21.0

Asha was rehomed about 2/3 months ago but had to come back to us because he needs more exercise than his owner is able to give him so she took the brave decision to return him to us. It's good news for Asha as it shows how well he's doing after his operation. We would love to find a Whippet/Pointy experienced home for him and will be happy to talk to anyone who would like to know more about him. His foster carer will update his thread as he settles in.
