Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue
About us
Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue is a charity entirely run by a small team of dedicated volunteers, ourselves dog owners. We have 3 kennels and a few experienced, well trusted foster homes and always run at full capacity to take in unwanted staffies and then work extremely hard to find loving, new homes for them.
Our rescue mainly take referrals from the council pounds, police and social services rather than directly from the general public. We do however help owners who are dying or fleeing domestic violence where we can. Sadly our services are in huge demand, so much so that we operate a waiting list. However by keeping our team small we believe our rescue practices remain thorough and successful.
Many of the staffies that come into our care are badly neglected, some have very severe skin issues such as demodex mange that often has been left untreated. It is common that they have had a very poor diet and many are under socialised with other animals and people.
As with other rescues, we rely on public donations to fund our rescue work. In addition to the dogs currently in kennels, we also offer full life after care for some of our dogs who have been rehomed if they are needing continuous veterinary treatment. Funds are a constant concern but every penny donated is spent on our staffies.
We have the additional problem that we can only advertise our "public" dogs for rehoming - we also have "hidden" dogs that we are helping that we cannot publicise due to court cases or domestic situations. So at any given time we are actually supporting more dogs that it may appear and cannot use their stories to appeal for funds.
All of us at Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue are volunteers and work tirelessly to improve the lives of the dogs in our care. Many of us have full time jobs but give our time willingly for the love of our beloved breed.
The tasks for our volunteers are many : fostering, admin, social media, home checks, transportation and assessment.
The... show more costs of our rescue work are many : all of our dogs are fully vaccinated, neutered, wormed and flea treated and fully assessed before we rehome them. They leave us with a rehoming pack and life time back up from the rescue. Whilst in our care there are vet costs, which can run into thousands of pounds for our very poorly dogs, food, bedding, equipment, toys.
The ways you can help fund our rescue work are many : we truly appreciate all donations no matter how small as we know spare cash is a luxury enjoyed by few and are mindful not to waste a single penny given to us.
You can become a Supa Staffie Sponsor for one of our 3 kennels. A regular monthly donation of £5 or whatever you can afford means we know at least part of our food and vet bills will have a regular income offset against it. To set up a standing order our details are :

Sort code .... 30-99-77
and reference Supa Staffie Sponsor - if you message your address to our FB page or e-mail us at staffylover@btinternet.com we will send out a sponsor certificate

You can purchase much needed food and equipment off our Amazon Wish List - we really don't want people to waste any of their hard earned cash sending items we cannot use and everything on this list is well researched and tried and tested. Many of our dogs are on specific diets, there are certain toys we prefer to use as our dogs often play in a group setting and of course have those famous shredding capabilities and we have tried and tested collars and harnesses that we know are better for bull breeds.
