Please sign the petition - to the Prime Minister, to help get the Index of Exempted Dogs re-opened to enable owner-led registration. More signatures needed.

• Transport:

Help is sometimes needed to transport dogs from put to sleep situations into kennels or foster homes, we work with several other rescues, if you are able to offer safe transport for a dog in need, even just occasionally, please email us to discuss further.

• Foster Homes:

We as well as the groups we work with, often need foster homes with people who have experience of dogs, especially bull breeds. Safe, secure garden essential. Dogs for fostering not socialised with cats. Food, transport and veterinary fees can be paid by rescue. All potential foster homes are vetted. Please contact us for further information.

• Please sign the 'speak up and be counted' remembrance book .

Add your voice in recognition of the 8,000 dogs which died last year due to having nowhere to go. A survey commissioned by the Dogs Trust showed that almost 8000 healthy dogs were put to sleep in council pounds in 2005. 8,000 dogs, who had no one of their "own", died simply because supply outstrips demand and, for us, life carried on.

• Please write to your own Member of Parliament (MP) and MEP

Voice your concerns over breed specific legislation, eg the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. Breed bans do not help protect the public. Ban the deed not the breed!
