Newcastle dog owners, we need your help.

Mr E, 82, is widowed and lives on his own now in Newcastle. He and his wife always had dogs, their last was a Border Terrier and he’s loves them and really misses having one in his life.

For health reasons Mr E isn’t able to get out and about as much as he’d like so he spends a great deal of time alone at home. He would love to have some company and a dog to cuddle again. He says “all dog owners who volunteer for Wag must be wonderful”! He’s right of course!

We can’t wait to introduce him to his own Wag Team - could it be you? Just an hour or two most weeks and a lovely cuddly dog is all it takes to make a real difference..🐶♥️🐶 Apply here 👉 www.wagandcompany.co.uk/volunteer

£1298 Lost

This month, 24 people have booked a dog grooming appointment and have not shown up for it.

We will no longer be booking appointments unless a £20 deposit is paid when booking in. This will secure the booking. If you don't show up for an appointment, you will lose your deposit. If you miss 2 appointments, you will no longer be able to book in unless a payment is made in full for the missed appointments.

We enjoy working here at For Paws but unfortunately bills need paid every month. If the money isn't coming in, we may not be able to stay and help you and your pet so please be aware of the impact it has on a small business if you don't show for an appointment.
