The City Dogs Home works with local councils/police and re-homing of private and stray dogs. They do some amazing work in finding forever homes for dogs in need across Staffordshire.
City Dogs Home was set up in Bucknall, Stoke on Trent to provide kennelling for local stray dogs, and to re-home them if they were not claimed.
The dogs that are rescued by the dog wardens are kept in the care of the council for 7 days. If they have not been claimed at the end of that period, we take them into our care and look after them until they find homes.
We also take dogs from homes where they can no longer stay, e.g. because of a marriage break up or the death of the dog´s owner.
Staffordshire City Dogs Home – What We Do
We take dogs of every breed, and our area covers all of Staffordshire, Derbyshire Cheshire and the West Midlands, although we will always consider homes further afield, and have re-homed dogs over a very wide area. We have rescued and re-homed many hundreds of dogs since the rescue was started.
Many of the dogs that come into the kennels have been abused or abandoned and are in poor condition and often need medical treatment before they can go to their new homes.
We always have dogs in our care that need homes. If you want to know more, or may be able to offer a home, please ring 01782 304130 or email citydogshomes@gmail.com
Think Dog, Think Rescue, Think City Dogs Home
Each year thousands upon thousands of dogs find themselves in need of a new home. Some are lost, others abandoned and others simply through a change in circumstances and that’s why we urge you to consider adoption and rehoming rather than just going for a puppy. Rehoming a dog can be THE most rewarding thing and can result in an incredibly special bond being formed.
So, if you’re thinking about getting a dog then please get in touch with us here at City Dogs Home in Stoke on Trent and we’ll talk you through the adoption process and the many benefits of dog adoption.
Your new best friend could be closer than you think!
Meet The Dogs At City Dogs Home Stoke On Trent
Please visit our facebook page to meet our dogs and please make contact or telephone for a chat about the dog. We will ask you for information about yourself and your family – sometimes this may seem intrusive but we are trying to re-home our dogs in the best home we can, from their needs but also from yours so that your new dog has the best chance of fitting in.
The next stage in the adoption process is a home visit. We only do visits by appointment, after we have spoken to you about a particular dog. We do not visit in advance of having a possible pet for you as we like to match dogs and owners on a one-to-one basis.
If you do not live close enough for us to do a visit we can sometimes arrange for another rescue to see you on our behalf.
In certain circumstances if this is not possible we do re-home out of area, subject to a vets reference.
Remember, a dog isn’t just for Christmas, but can make an ideal family member or friend. Call us on 01782 304130 for further information.
