Eight day stray Florin

Where will dogs like Florin be this time next week?

Many dogs like Florin are facing an eight day countdown to either being rehomed or put to sleep.

That’s because the authorities give owners just seven days to reclaim stray dogs. During this time council dog wardens send lists of unclaimed stray dogs to rehoming centres like those run by Blue Cross across the UK. On the eighth day, if no-one can take them in, the authorities have to decide whether to put these dogs to sleep.

Week after week – the UK needlessly destroys hundreds of dogs like Florin.

There are lots of ways we can use your gift to help pets like Florin:

  • You could help us to expand our Home Direct scheme where we rehome pets straight from owners who can no longer care for them, to loving new homes without them needing to come into rehoming centres. This leaves space at centres free for more dogs from the pounds
  • You could help pay for more staff training at our rehoming centres, because the number of dogs we can take depends on having enough properly trained staff to care for them
  • You could help us to promote and develop our neutering programme, so that no dog is discarded as unwanted
  • You could help us to pay to microchip more pets, making it easier to reunite them with their owner and not risk them being put to sleep.
