🎅💜 OUR GROTTO IS BACK… AND THIS YEAR, IT MEANS EVEN MORE. 💜🎅

We’re so excited to announce that our Christmas Dog Grotto is returning! 🐾✨

And while your dogs get to enjoy the magic of Christmas, we have a fundraising section that will help continue caring for the dogs who will be spending Christmas waiting for their forever homes in rescue. 💜

🎄 Santa is waiting… but spaces are limited!
We’ll be offering individual booked slots with Santa, giving your dog their own special Christmas moment without the hustle and bustle of a busy queue.

And yes — reactive and anxious dogs are very welcome. We’ll do everything we can to make their visit calm, comfortable and enjoyable. 🐶💕

🎁 Every dog will receive a gift from Santa!

📸 There’ll be plenty of opportunities for those all-important Christmas photographs, with festive backdrops ready to make some gorgeous memories.

🧸 Our Christmas shop will also be open, packed with toys, treats and everything your dog could possibly want for Christmas.

☕ Hot drinks will be available too, so grab a warm drink and enjoy the festive atmosphere.

🎟️ Plus, we’ll have fundraising raffles, our annual Rescue Dog Stocking Appeal and lots more ways to help the dogs who need us most.

💜The charge is per dog, and the event is fully accessible and family friendly.

✨ If you’d like to secure one of our Santa slots, please don’t leave it until the last minute — once the available spaces are gone, they’re gone.

Come and make a little Christmas magic for your dog… while helping us make Christmas a little brighter for a rescue dog too. 🐾🎅💜

A high level of commitment is required and expected.

🐾 If you love dogs but also understand that working with them involves a lot of cleaning, hard work and responsibility, we would love to hear from you.

To apply, please send us a email to [email protected] telling us a little about yourself, your previous work experience and why you would like the position.

If you’re a follower of Dogs 4 Rescue you may not recognise this gorgeous boy as Chip, a dog who was hit over the head and left for dead in a bin. I first met Chip at the rescue, Chips now in an amazing home and I was so pleased to be able to go see him happy and settled. He’s looking better than ever 💜 If you have space in your heart and home for a rescue dog please take a look at the dogs they have desperate for families to call their own 🥰
