Pet Rescue Excellence
Society and Living are delighted to award their highly prestigious and much coveted ‘Commitment to Excellence’ profile to Birch Hill Dog Rescue. This is awarded in recognition of their dedication to animal conservation and rehabilitation, as well as serving a reminder of the need for public donations for this most worthy of charities. Founded in 1996 by dog lover Jutta Patterson, Birch Hill Dog Rescue is a devoted dog charity that takes in any abandoned or mistreated canine in need from anywhere in the country. Located in Cleobury Mortimer, Jutta established the centre after realising just how many dogs, through no fault of their own, found themselves homeless. Originally only 10% of their work was dedicated to caring for rescue dogs from other charities, but in 2001 the rescue dogs took over and the kennels were converted into a dedicated rescue centre, eventually becoming a registered charity. The centre operates a non-destruction policy and never differentiates between the breeds that it takes in. Each day sees more and more mistreated or abandoned dogs arriving at Birch Hill, but with soaring monthly costs of kennel and veterinary care of over £6000 the hardworking staff there desperately need your help and support to provide the animals with the care they deserve. We rely on dogs for so many things- as blind dogs, sniffer |
