“It’s so hard not to lose hope of finding a new premises…but we keep on keeping on.

Please please help us find a home for the SEDR dogs…”

‼️ HELP SAVE SEDR ‼️

Here it goes 🥺... This is without doubt the hardest post I’ve ever had to write 💔

For over 16 years, I have dedicated my heart, soul, and life to building a rescue that provides safety, love, and hope to countless abandoned and neglected dogs. But now, everything I’ve worked so hard for is at risk.

The kennels we rent, which have been the heart of our rescue for the past 5 years, is up for sale with planning for warehouses to be built. We need to raise the funds to buy or find a new home for our dogs—or risk losing it all.
We have mutually rented the site for the past 5 years with other rescues…and whilst we will all continue to support each other…we are all working on our own rescues futures individually given the variations in what is needed by each.

I started SEDR in 2009 as a home-run effort, taking in one dog at a time. It’s quickly grown into a lifeline for 1000’s of dogs—many of whom came to us from unimaginable circumstances. We’ve rehomed dogs, provided sanctuary for those who couldn’t cope in traditional homes, and supported struggling families with food, neutering, and foster care. We’ve upheld a strict no-kill policy and been a last resort for dogs who had nowhere else to turn.

Now, those dogs, along with our sanctuary residents, are facing uncertainty.

We want to raise £1.7 million to buy our kennel site, what we now call home, and save this rescue—16 years of hard work, sacrifice, and love—from being lost forever.

We are under no illusion that the funds needed is possible, but we’re not willing to give up without a fight - our dogs, and future dogs, are ALL worth it!

As a single mum running SEDR, I’ve poured everything I have into building this rescue. I’ve never taken a wage, nor would I want to. These dogs have saved me just as much as I’ve saved them. My incredible daughter Skye, our amazing supporters, and the volunteers who’ve stood by us have been my rock. And together, we’ve shown the absolute best of what compassion can achieve.

But right now, I feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and heartbroken. Finding a suitable place to rent feels impossible, and we don’t have funds sitting in the bank to buy somewhere. All I want is to secure a safe and happy life for the dogs who depend on us—the Jaspers, the Tegans, the Bugsys, and the ones who haven’t yet crossed our path.

This is our most desperate hour. If you love dogs, believe in rescue, or know what it’s like to see hope in a dog’s eyes, we need your help.

Every share, donation, or word of support brings us closer to securing a forever home for these dogs.

If you know of a suitable location or have ideas to help us secure the future of SEDR, please reach out. Together, we can protect the dogs who’ve already been through so much and continue to be a lifeline for those in need.

Please join us. Let’s not let these dogs down.

This is so important.

If your dog is uncomfortable due to their coats not being regularly cared for you can end up seeing behavioural issues creeping in.

If you work with me you'll know that we will be ensuring all of our dogs needs are met whilst working through training and behaviour modifications. If you have a dog that requires regular grooming, it is your responsibility to ensure that this is done. Take your groomers advice on grooming schedules - They know what they're talking about. If your groomer recommends a more regular groom, book it in they're not after more money... they just understand the needs of your breed ✨

Just. Do. It…

Mabel. Mabel. Mabel.

Updates like these just make me so proud.

Mabel and her humans are working so hard through their training programme (3 months in) and the progress they’re making is just wonderful.

We know not every outing will be plain sailing and some walks can still be tricky to navigate with Mabel as her excitement levels are sometimes high but celebrating these wins is so important ✨

It’s a pleasure working with Mabel and her owners as their commitment is second to none, alongside their training they have included her dog walker who is a integral part of her journey. Tracy is on board with Mabels training journey and has had a session with me to ensure she is practicing the same on their walks 💖

TODAY IS: National Day! 💛

At The Dog Trainer School, we believe every anxious dog deserves to feel safe, understood, and respected. That’s why we’re standing together for day.

But today isn’t just about the dogs – it’s about YOU, their dedicated humans. We see the love, patience, and effort you put into keeping your dog safe, and today is about celebrating you just as much as them.

Let’s raise awareness (quietly, of course – our anxious pups prefer it that way). Let’s educate, share, and make sure the world knows what yellow really means.

Here’s how you can get involved:
💛 Wear yellow!
💛 Share a photo of your dog in yellow using
💛 Tell someone why yellow matters
💛 Tag a friend and invite them to join the movement
💛 Become a My Anxious Dog affiliate

Together, we can create a world where every dog in yellow gets the space and respect they deserve.
