East Midlands Dog Rescue is a group of volunteers who place abandoned and unwanted dogs in new homes. Among the many breeds regularly looking for new homes are often retired Greyhounds and Lurchers.

We are always in need of items on our Essential Shopping List, if you have any spare used clothes, bedding, washing powder, bleach, refuse bags, dog food (preferably Chappie), then please let us know.

A minimum suggested donation for adopting one of our dogs is £90 to help towards the running of the rescue centre. This does not cover the costs of helping just one dog but at least enables us to continue our operation.
 
EMDR Charity shop opening times...Opens at 9:30 and closes at 4:30 except Wednesdays and Saturdays when it shuts at 13:30, not open on Sundays.
 
When contacting us please be patient, this organisation is run by a small number of volunteers who, as you can imagine, have many many things to do and will get back to you as soon as they can.

Star of the week

Stanley

Lurcher               

18 months         

Dark Brown & a bit of white     

 Male     

Stanley is a beauty despite having had a rotten start in life. He’s only young and hasn’t experienced a happy home yet.  Stanley is just starting to trust people and his personality is shining through.

Stanley would love to be an only dog so that he doesn’t have to share any affection – he wants it all to himself.  Whist he doesn’t want to live with another dog Stanley doesn’t mind cats and shows no interest in them. He’s an affectionate boy and will follow his new owner around and be a great companion, especially for someone who is home during the day.

If you would like to come and have a look and meet our residents, then the kennels are open every Sunday morning 10am - 1:00pm & Wednesday 10:00am - 12:00pm. All other times by appointment.

Our shop is desperate for donations of wool, if you have any spare please let us know.

Fundraising Appeal: Due to the terrible injuries of some of the dogs coming into the rescue we urgently need to raise some funds to pay for the vet bills.   Are you able to do a fundraising event (or make a donation) to help us raise some much-needed funds?  Thank you for your continued support.
