Because every dog deserves the chance to find a loving home, no matter their age or health needs.

A regular monthly gift of £30 could help ensure that age or health conditions never stand in the way of a dog finding their forever family. Your kindness can help us give dogs the care and support they need, opening the door to a brighter future filled with love and happiness 🐾

Together, we can help more dogs get the second chance they deserve. Every donation, big or small, helps us make a difference.

Help us change a dog's future today and become a regular giver:

We're back with our monthly annual report fact!

"In some cases, the Society re-homed dogs from particularly difficult situations.

In July 2011, a call came from a concerned vet. Max, a 4-and-a-half-month-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier, had been handed in with a horrific open head wound. The wound was so deep you could see his skull.

The Society covered the cost of Max’s treatment, and after a special appeal in the Daily Mail, we found him a loving home where he has healed and lives with two other Staffordshire Bull Terriers."

We are proud to offer a unique home-to-home re-homing service here at Dog Aid Scotland. Visit the link below to see the dogs available for re-homing.

Indy, the 8-year-old Bichon Frise, was rehomed after his owners had a change in circumstances that meant they could no longer care for him.

Indy’s DAS owner says, “I saw Indy on the Dog Aid Scotland website and he looked perfect for me, so I submitted the adoption request form. I'm glad to say he settled in really well. We have lots of cuddles and he loves playtime with his toys, not to mention the odd treat or two! Indy also loves his walks along the banks of the local estuary, or in the local woodlands."

We absolutely love hearing success stories like this! Have you adopted from Dog Aid Scotland? Send us your updates to [email protected] to be featured next!

A small monthly gift can make a bigger difference than you realise 💙

By becoming a regular giver to Dog Aid Scotland, your support helps us continue providing vital care to dogs who need it.

For just £10 a month, you could help ensure one more dog receives the neutering support they need each year, reducing the risk of unwanted litters and helping them enjoy a healthier life.

It’s a simple way to make a lasting difference - one month, one gift, one dog at a time.

Swipe for some of our favourite local dog walks!

There’s nothing better than getting out with your four-legged friend and exploring some of the beautiful walks that we're so lucky to have right on our doorstep.

From the views of the Pentland Hills to seaside adventures along Cramond Front, and peaceful strolls around Linlithgow Loch - there’s something for every dog (and their owner!) to enjoy.

We’d love to know… what’s your favourite local dog walk?

It’s National Homemade Cookie Day!

And what better way to celebrate than with a little sneak peek from one of our Seven-Tea Party Packs?

Inside, you’ll find a rather special recipe from Dog Aid Scotland for homemade dog biscuits - perfect for giving your four-legged friends a little treat of their own.

We thought we’d share a wee glimpse of the recipe today, and a reminder that every Seven-Tea Party Pack helps support Dog Aid Scotland.
