Meet Hugo. He’s been through more than any animal should.

Hugo was removed from his home during a police drugs raid and brought into our care. When he arrived, he was emaciated, weak and clearly very unwell.

Since then, our team has been working tirelessly to give Hugo the care and chance he so desperately needs.

Now, we need your help. We’ve launched a fundraiser to support Hugo’s ongoing care and recovery. Every donation, no matter how small, will help us give Hugo the brighter future he deserves.

Please donate if you can, and share Hugo’s story to help us reach as many people as possible.

Together, we can give Hugo his second chance.

Rescued during a police drugs raid, Hugo arrived at our centre emaciated, weak and seriously unwell. We’re fighting to give him the care, love and second chance he deserves. Your donation will help us give Hugo the chance of a better life.

Hi, I’m Chance!

I’m 5 years old, and I’ve been waiting for my special someone for quite a while now. I’m not really sure why… because if you ask my friends here, they’ll tell you I’m an absolute lover boy.

I LOVE people. Seriously. If there’s fuss on offer, I’m there! I’ll greet my favourite humans with my huge, wide-mouthed smile, a wagging tail and a bum that wiggles so much it practically has a mind of its own.

I’m a very happy, affectionate boy with a huge heart. When I love someone, I love them hard. I’m incredibly loyal to my people and there’s nothing I enjoy more than being close to you, soaking up attention and reminding you just how pleased I am that you exist.

I’ve come such a long way since I first arrived in rescue. I can sometimes be a little unsure when meeting other dogs, so I’m still working on my doggy social skills with my friends at the centre. And guess what? I’m doing really well! With sensible introductions, continued positive training and someone willing to give me a little time and patience, everyone here thinks I can keep making brilliant progress.

But please don’t let that one little thing make you overlook everything else I have to offer.

Because really, I’m just a big-hearted sweetheart looking for someone to adore. I’ll bring the smiles, the cuddles, the ridiculous bum wiggles and enough love and loyalty to fill your whole home.

I’ve been waiting a long time for somebody to choose me, and I’m more than ready to start the next chapter of my life.

So… maybe it’s finally time to take a Chance on me?

If you can offer Chance a new home, please register your interest today! https://www.nawt.org.uk/rehoming/animal/12895/
Chance is located at our centre in Berkshire.
