DID YOU KNOW?
Last year we helped over 250 stray dogs

SPECIAL APPEAL FOR HETTY AND NORMA. Mum and daughter duo are in an amazing foster home.
They are adorable Bulldogs that have suffered severe neglect and mistreatment.
These dogs are resilient, making progress and are absolute darlings.

Hetty and Norman are mum and daughter. They came to us as an emergency from a Yorkshire stray kennels. They were suffering from Mange and Pyoderma. Their skin was infected with open sores and they had a dappened spirit and a broken soul. Mum, Hetty remained so down in the dumps and her past trauma had clearly got the better of her.

 

Our foster people and friends Greg and Louise are now caring for these ladies. They have come on leaps and bounds. They have lotions and potions from the vets and above all else have TLC every day and some love in their lives at last. Their journey has been traumatic and has broken our hearts. They still have a long way to go however passion and determination is key. We welcome calls of interest and applications from their profile page. PLEASE SUPPORT OUR APPEAL.

NORA  - Loyal and loving and in need of a special home.
PLEASE SUPPORT ADOPTION

This stunning girl is Nora. She is a German Shepherd cross who came into our care as a very skinny stray. She is two years old and sadly has endured a sad life.

Nora is ball crazy and a foodie and so beautiful. She will do anything for a toy or a ball and loves attention. She has formed a huge bond with everyone at kennels and is now ready to find a new start. Nora will need an active home where someone adores this breed and loves an outdoorsy adventure. Please support adoption. Nora is a beautiful dog.

We appeal to rescue minded adopters to please consider larger dogs left behind. Nora has so much love to give and will make someone a very loyal girl. She needs a dedicated adopter who is prepared to continue with guidance and training. CALLS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO DISCUSS OUR DOGS. WE ADORE THIS BEAUTIFUL GIRL.

Dedicated to helping stray and abandoned dogs

Good Life Dog Rescue is a registered charity in Yorkshire. We are dedicated to helping stray and abandoned dogs left waiting at local stray council kennels. We work tirelessly with limited funds to help dogs in need at local stray kennels. We are very hands on and dedicated in helping the dogs that have no voice and visit the stray kennels every week. Some of our rescue dogs have suffered neglect, abuse and have endured a difficult start in life at the hands of a human. We have many that need urgent medical care.

Our vet and kennelling bills are huge every month and every effort is made to raise funds to support the dogs in our care. We do not own our own rescue kennels and are currently boarding our dogs at two different kennels in Yorkshire. We are no longer boarding our rescue dogs at kennels in Worksop. We do not pay staff so every penny goes back into supporting the dogs in need. We are a registered charity and the founder of Good Life lives in Leeds. This is our charity corresponding address. Every penny raised goes towards the care of the dogs. We pay no wages and exist with few volunteers so time is very precious and our workload is immense. Our dedication and passion is what keeps us going.

 

Our aim is to provide essential help for the dogs and through assessments maintain an accurate match of our dog with any potential adopter. All our dogs receive veterinary care, health checks, full vaccinations and neutering as part of our adoption procedure. Essential care and a dedication to the welfare of each dog is met until a perfect human and hound match is found. Home checks and vet references from owners previous pets veterinary practices are needed if possible prior adoption.

As a small rescue support is vitally important to us. With limited help we rely on donations and fundraising events. Any help is appreciated by donators. Please contact us for more details about the work we do and how you can help us. We are always grateful for support however small.

Adoption Process

We work extremely hard to ensure that adopters are matched well with the rescue dogs in our care. Many factors have to be considered for each individual dogs needs. Lifestyle, working hours and whether you have a family are all crucial in matching our homeless hounds with humans. Our aim is to match every dog with the right human and the perfect home environment.

Please visit our "How to Adopt" on our News page. More information and details about how to adopt a rescue dog are available to read prior to filling in an application. Due to a huge increase in people wanting to adopt dogs your patience is very much appreciated.
