About Us

We are a small, family run rescue centre situated in the picturesque village of Grinshill - 8 miles north of Shrewsbury (off the A49 Whitchurch road).

Our house and kennels nestle into the base of Grinshill hill and we are surrounded by woods and fields - haven for cats and dogs alike. We started rescuing dogs approximately 9 years ago, taking in battered and abused animals and generally helping people when they could no longer look after their animals for one reason or another.

As the years progressed, the work has increased. We built more kennels and in October 1996 we built a cattery. No matter how much space is made with new kennels and cattery, there is never enough room - we always have waiting lists for dogs & cats to be re-homed.

We have a Non-Destruction Policy unless absolutely necessary, due to the animal's condition.

Our aim is to rehabilitate and re-home all animals to suitable, caring homes. All homes are checked before and after re-homing. The dogs are vaccinated and neutered, and cats neutered. As we are only a small sanctuary our animals all have individual love and attention.

We are limited to what we can do by the strength of our resources, both financial and human. We are short in both areas and are appealing for help. We need more people to help raise funds and carry out other voluntary tasks, such as 'dog walking', if you can spare a little of your time then your help would be most welcome.
