Clymping Dog Sanctuary

Clymping Dog Sanctuary We take in unwanted and abandoned dogs and also dogs from people who cannot care for them anymore. Our sponsorship scheme supports these types of dogs.

Clymping Dog Sanctuary is a Registered Charity under the Charities Act 1960 - Charity Reg No. 279937

Clymping first opened its doors back in 1952 by Mrs Kathleen Grellier and the then Duchess of Norfolk. As a sanctuary, we aim to find homes for any waifs & strays or otherwise unwanted dogs. We want all our dogs to be properly cared for and to feel safe and loved not only in the time they are with

us but also when they go to their forever homes. Our policy is to never put a clinically healthy dog down which means we sometimes have a few long-term "stayers" until the right owner comes along. From time to time, we do have dogs we take in that have health problems that require veterinary treatment. These health problems can sometimes be resolved after a few visits but sometimes they require regular checks or medication. Sometimes we have dogs that we feel will never be homed due to their condition or behavioural problems. It costs £20 per dog per day to house, feed and care for them. Add to that any vet bills (which can be huge!) on top of this means we rely on the generosity of others to help keep our shelter open, so we can help give all the gorgeous dogs the lives they deserve. You can help keep our kennels running by fundraising, volunteering or by donating, no matter how big or small, via the link on our page. We are so grateful for any support you can give us. Please remember, adopt don't shop! Your new best friend could be waiting for you at Clymping.

Happy end to the weekend for Cleo!

She was officially rehomed today💗

Cleo finally gained some confidence in another furry legged friend and has realised having a dad isn’t all bad. We have to give credit to the other family member with paws for helping Cleo’s outlook. We are so glad she’s now settled in a new home and can begin to love life and gain confidence ❤️

Little Percy is unreserved and back looking for his forever home 💙

He’s only 3 years old and needs a pet and child free home. He needs some patience with adjusting to a new home and his next home needs to be his last so we would only like people who have seriously thought about it to contact us. We don’t want the little man to go through more stress in his short life🥹

He has a fun little personality once he trusts you, he adores playing. He likes a cuddle and sitting on your lap. He can be reactive to dogs on walks and is still growing back some hair on his ears, chest and legs.

We hope someone special comes forward for him. If you can give him a home, please call us when we reopen tomorrow on 01903883216. The lines open from 8.30am 💙

There has to be a home out there for our two unreserved girls 💔

Tilly is 2 years old in August and we have had her for 70 days. She’s such a happy girl and we would love to find her a home.
She can’t be rehomed with children but can go with a male dog.

Lola is 7 years old and acts younger. She has been with us for 40 days. She too is always happy deserves to grow old in a home.
She needs a pet free home but can be rehomed with children 12 and above.

Please share our fantastic girls 💗

Our purpose...

Clymping Dog Sanctuary was started almost 70 years ago by Mrs Kathleen Grellier & her friend Her Grace the Duchess of Norfolk. Together they wanted to help animals in need. Nowadays the Sanctuary is run by volunteers and is based in Ford. We are a Registered Charity under the Charities Act 1960 - Charity Reg No. 279937 Our purpose is to take in, treat, care for and find homes for unwanted and abandoned dogs in our community. We never to put a clinically healthy dog down, which means we sometimes have a few long term "stayers" until the right owner comes along. We also have dogs who we feel will never be homed and they stay with us forever - for these dogs we run a sponsorship scheme to fund their lifetime care.

The minimum cost to us to care for a dog is £11 a day to feed and home - often veterinary bills take this amount to much, much more. We are a small but determined charity and are continually fundraising to keep the Sanctuary open and provide the best care we can for the dogs.

If you would like to sponsor one our dogs, please find out more on our donations and sponsorship page or you can make an online donation by using the link below. Every penny you donate goes to help the dogs that are in our care today and who will arrive needing help tomorrow.

Thank you x
