We are a re-homing centre for cats and dogs looking for caring, loving homes in Northeast Essex and Southeast Suffolk. We usually have 50-60 cats and up to 12 dogs requiring homes. The dogs are given to us by their owners so we should know something about them. All our cats and dogs are vaccinated and neutered before adoption. We will not place pets in homes that have children under 10 years old. We require a home check before adoption and therefore we have to restrict our rehoming area to 15 miles from our centre.

Directions to Clarks Farm Greyhound Rescue Castledon Greyhound Rescue Wickford, Essex Castledon Greyhound Rescue provides a sanctuary and re-homing service for Greyhounds in need in the UK. Greyhounds come to us as retired racers, as strays, and from owners who give up their dogs due to changing life circumstances such as: relocation, financial hardship, divorce, illness, or death. Castledon Greyhound Rescue provides the dogs with veterinary care, spay/neuter, vaccinations, good quality food, love, and placement into a home for life under a contract that dictates their humane care. Greyhounds are now becoming very popular pets - people are more aware of their plight and of course, what fantastic pets they make. - Contrary to popular belief, they don't require much exercise - two 20 minute walks per day is sufficient. - Greyhounds have the most fantastic temperaments - They adore human company - Are extremely affectionate - Are gentle, docile and loving - Excellent on a lead - Quiet dogs that rarely bark Greyhounds are commonly referred to as 40 mph couch potatoes! We do not have as many dogs as other kennels which means that we can really get to know our dogs personalities, likes and dislikes. Because of this, we like to think that we can offer you a more personalised homing process. Should you decide that a Castledon Greyhound may be the dog for you, we will arrange to meet you and do a home-check BEFORE you meet the dogs. Castledon Kennels 181 Castledon Road Wickford Essex SS12 0EG Telephone: 01268 733293 Email: info@greyhoundrescueuk.co.uk Viewing by appointment only. Lincolnshire Essex and Trent Boxer Rescue Wickford, Essex There are many reasons why boxers come into rescue, often through no fault of their own. Most Boxers come to us due to marriage break ups, the rest are because of a mixture of ignorance, death of owners and misunderstanding of the breed. Whatever the reason we are only to happy to help as the welfare of boxers is our only priority. We always do our homework first and match the dog to thier new forever family.We never have dogs to view! Every home is thoroughly checked out and once anyone adopts a boxer from us they become part of this ever increasing boxer family. We never lose touch. We ask for photos and updates from every new home periodically, and we send out news letters once a year. We have a Funday once a year when all new owners and their beloved dogs are invited to take part in a super day out. This is our main fund raising event of the year thus enabling us to continue the good work. We are solely funded by donations and administered entirely by voluntary helpers, without whom LETBR would not be what it is today. National Animal Welfare Trust Thurrock and South West Essex The Thurrock and South West Essex branch of the NAWT was formed in 1977, originally as a fundraising group, but within months the volunteers realised that there were many animals in the area needing homes. Since those early days the branch has found homes for thousands of unwanted cats and dogs besides helping many animals. The dogs are vaccinated, neutered and micro chipped, wormed and had flea control before being re-homed. All the cats we re-home are neutered at six months, micro chipped and have been wormed and had flea control. We ensure that all kittens homed from us are also neutered at the appropriate age. There are always more cats and dogs in care than we can show on the website, and invariably we have a list of cats waiting to come into care. Dogs needing homes. Contact Phone: 01375 376682 RSPCA Danaher Animal Home Wethersfield, Braintree, Essex The RSPCA Danaher Animal Home, whilst being affiliated to the RSPCA, is run by an independent Trust and has been helping unwanted, badly treated, neglected and abandoned animals since 1990. The Home takes in and re-homes around 1,400 animals per year (400 dogs, 450 cats and 550 others – mainly rabbits, hamsters, and other “small furies”) although there is an approved euthanasia protocol for any animal that does not have any chance of a quality life. The number of dogs shown above will increase when the new kennels (see below) are opened. However the Home needs to be adaptable as in 2007 a raid by police and the RSPCA meant around 500 small animals and birds plus over 500 terrapins arrived in one day. Accommodation had to be found for these both at our Home and other Homes in the area. The home now consists of a new modern kennel block built in 2007 and a second modern block is currently under construction. With the isolation kennels this will give accommodation for around 70 dogs. The cattery gives accommodation for 36 cats with a new isolation block being built, hopefully in 2008. A small animals barn, rabbit house, surgery and reception area complete the site. Funding comes from re-homing fees, donations, fund raising, grants and legacies. Dogs needing homes. RSPCA Danaher Animal Home Thorley Farm Hedingham Road Wethersfield nr. Braintree Essex CM7 4EQ Tel: 01371 851201 RSPCA Havering Romford, Essex RSPCA Havering looks after many animals. It helps to treat them with medical care and attention but what many of our animals need more than anything is a new owner to love and look after them. If you would be prepared to consider giving a new home to an unfortunate dog, presently being cared for by RSPCA Havering in a local Kennel, then please consider one of our dogs. We are in great need of volunteers to help us with the re-homing of cats and dogs. Help with cats is especially needed. oluntary work is very rewarding and any reliable volunteers who also have transport would be much appreciated. If you are interested in more information about any of our dogs please contact us at 01375 859 179. Area: Havering, Harold Hill, Romford, Upminster. RSPCA Essex South & Southend Branch Rayleigh, Essex The Essex South & Southend branch of the RSPCA, in common with all local branches is separate and independent from the parent charity, i.e. the National RSPCA. The easiest way to understand this structure is to think of it in terms of a Franchise. There are over 160 Branches of the RSPCA and every Branch is slightly different from its neighbours. They operate their own animal welfare programmes, which run "in tandem” with the National Society. Each branch raises its own funds and manages its own affairs. The branch has five paid staff to run our three shops and our van service. This is backed up by a number of volunteers. We raise funds to continue to pay for the private boarding and veterinary care of animals brought in by RSPCA Inspectors which are then re-homed by the Branch. Please visit our cat and dog adoption pages if you would like to consider adopting one of the rescue animals in our care. A home visit is always undertaken by our volunteer home checkers to ensure a good match is made between the animal and its potential adopter. Branch volunteers also work hard raising funds to support our assisted neutering scheme which enable people on low incomes to meet expensive veterinary bills. Towns/villages in the Branch area include: Asheldam, Bradwell on Sea, Burnham on Crouch, Canvey island, Castle Point, Cold Norton, Eastwood, Hadleigh, Hawkwell, Hockley, Hullbridge, Latchingdon, Leigh, Maldon, Maylandsea, Mundon, Prittlewell, Purleigh & District, Rayleigh, Rochford, Shoeburyness, South Benfleet, South Woodham Ferrers, Southchurch, Southend on Sea, Southminster, Steeple, Thorpe Bay, Thundersley, Westcliff.
