💙 SONNIE DESERVES A CHANCE 💙

Sonnie is a 10-month-old Mali cross who has had a heartbreaking start in life. 💔

Yet one-to-one, he is a gentle, loving soul who loves to give you a kiss and have a cuddle and just wants someone to believe in him.

Sonnie doesn't appear to have ever experienced a proper walk. He's strong on the lead and needs someone patient who can teach him the things he should have learnt already.

He can react to other dogs on walks, but we've seen him settle when closer. He needs time, patience and understanding — not someone to give up on him.

🙏 Please, can someone give Sonnie the life he deserves?

His past wasn't his fault. His future doesn't have to be. ❤️🐾

📩 Message Deerness Kennels and cattery and rescue centre if you could be Sonnie's person.

Please share. His forever home could be one share away. 💙

💙 BLUE NEEDS YOU 💙

80 days. That’s how long our gorgeous Blue has been waiting for his forever home. 😔🐾

At 8 years old, Blue is now our longest resident – watching other dogs find their families while he continues to wait.

🏠 Could you be Blue’s forever family?

Please share and help us get Blue noticed. His family could be out there. 💙

🐾 WE'RE LOOKING FOR NEW COMMITTEE MEMBERS! 🐾

Do you love dogs and want to make a real difference to the lives of stray and abandoned dogs in County Durham?

SoSad – Supporters of Stray and Abandoned Dogs is looking for new people to join our committee and help us continue the work we do.

We meet 6 times a year with the owners of Deerness Kennels and cattery and rescue centre . At these meetings, we discuss the rescue dogs, pay the vets' bills, talk about fundraising and social media, and look at how we can continue to support the dogs in our care.

There are lots of ways you can get involved, including:

🐶 Helping with charity administration
💰 Helping us raise vital funds
📱 Helping with our social media and promoting the dogs
🐕 Opportunities to walk and spend time with the dogs
🏡 Helping find our dogs loving forever homes
🤝 Bringing your own skills, ideas and enthusiasm

You don't need previous committee or charity experience — just a genuine love of dogs and a willingness to help. 🐾

We meet just 6 times a year, but there are also opportunities to get more involved outside of the meetings, whether that's helping at fundraising events, supporting our social media, walking the dogs or simply lending a hand when needed.

If you're interested, we'd love to hear a little about you, what you could bring to SoSad and why you'd like to get involved.

Please get in touch through our contact form:

👉 https://sosad.co.uk/contact-us/

We’re looking for people who we feel would be a great fit for our committee and who share our passion for helping stray and abandoned dogs. 🐾💙

Could you be the next member of the SoSad team? 🐶
