Find the 'pawfect' Christmas present for the dog lover in your life by sponsoring Zebedee at Dogs Trust
Sponsoring a dog is a meaningful Christmas gift for the canine connoisseur in your life.
The charity currently has 21 dogs available to sponsor, including Zebedee at Dogs Trust Ballymena.
With Christmas shopping now on the agenda for many, Dogs Trust Ballymena has the perfect gift for dog lovers – sponsoring one of the dogs currently in the charity’s care.
Dogs Trust’s ‘Sponsor A Dog Scheme’ is a meaningful gift because not only will you be supporting the charity to care for thousands of dogs each year, but when you ‘Sponsor A Dog’ you will receive a sponsorship pack including a photo certificate of your chosen dog, photo postcards, a window sticker and fridge magnet.
You will also receive updates from your pooch three times a year – at Christmas, on Valentine’s Day and in the summer.
With around 1,500 dogs in a Dogs Trust rehoming centre at any one time, gifting someone a ‘Sponsor Dog’ for just £1 per week can make a world of difference to dogs waiting to be adopted.
Currently the Dogs Trust in Ballymena has 21 dogs available for sponsorship, including English Springer Spaniel Zebedee.
He is a cheeky chap, who is full of life, and loves playing hide and seek with his favourite carers.
He is renowned for his good looks, especially his cute, floppy ears, and his high-pitched bark, which can be heard when he is having fun.
Zebedee also loves afternoon snoozes on his sofa in his kennel.
Conor O’Kane, Manager at Dogs Trust Ballymena said: “We adore Zebedee and I am sure the dog lover in your life will too.
"By sponsoring a dog like Zebedee not only are you helping your chosen sponsor dog, but you are also helping us care for the hundreds of dogs being cared for within our 21 rehoming centres.
"The money raised through this scheme is vital in helping with all aspects of running our centre, from heating the kennels, providing treats and enrichment toys, training and behaviour support and any veterinary care required for our dogs.”
Each year, Dogs Trust finds homes for thousands of dogs.
Most find their forever home within around six weeks, but for those that need love and support for longer, Dogs Trust is committed to caring for them and providing a happy place for them to stay for however long it takes.
