Clymping Dog Sanctuary

We take in unwanted and abandoned dogs and also dogs from people who cannot care for them anymore. Our sponsorship scheme supports these types of dogs.
(12)

Clymping Dog Sanctuary is a Registered Charity under the Charities Act 1960 - Charity Reg No. 279937

Clymping first opened its doors back in 1952 by Mrs Kathleen Grellier and the then Duchess of Norfolk. As a sanctuary, we aim to find homes for any waifs & strays or otherwise unwanted dogs. We want all our dogs to be properly cared for and to feel safe and loved not only in the time they are with

us but also when they go to their forever homes. Our policy is to never put a clinically healthy dog down which means we sometimes have a few long-term "stayers" until the right owner comes along. From time to time, we do have dogs we take in that have health problems that require veterinary treatment. These health problems can sometimes be resolved after a few visits but sometimes they require regular checks or medication. Sometimes we have dogs that we feel will never be homed due to their condition or behavioural problems. It costs £20 per dog per day to house, feed and care for them. Add to that any vet bills (which can be huge!) on top of this means we rely on the generosity of others to help keep our shelter open, so we can help give all the gorgeous dogs the lives they deserve. You can help keep our kennels running by fundraising, volunteering or by donating, no matter how big or small, via the link on our page. We are so grateful for any support you can give us. Please remember, adopt don't shop! Your new best friend could be waiting for you at Clymping.

Its amazing to see so many Clymping dogs thriving in their new homes 🐶🐾

We had special guest Frank and his owner visit yesterday!

Frank was rehomed from us in March 2023. We love getting surprise visits from ex Clymping dogs. They even kindly left a donation!

Frank is looking as great as ever ❤️

15/11/2024

We think little Pip looks even better in slow motion 🐶

14/11/2024

Look how great Thors ears are looking already! It’s only been a week since the vets and they are so much better.

Thank you to everyone who donated to help with his vets bill!❤️

Thor is looking for his forever home🐶🐾

Did you know that you can help us every time you shop at Pets at Home?!

On your pets VIP account, you can select us as your chosen charity. This means that anytime your card is swiped when you spend, this gets converted into lifelines for us!
The lifelines after a certain amount, get turned into charity vouchers for us to use in store❤️

Aimee, Pharaoh and Thor are sporting their new collars replacing old, dirty ones. We also managed to use the voucher for specific food Thor needs for his allergies and some fun toys to keep the sanctuary dogs happy and entertained!

Something so small, can mean so much to us and the dogs!

Big Pip had a fun adventure over the weekend 🐾 Don’t forget we love seeing your photos from when you take them out🐶

Pharaoh is currently on his 244th day with us💔

Pharaoh has made such a huge transformation since he came to us back in March. When he came in, he was a timid young lad who would lunge when he saw other dogs on walks.
Pharaoh is so much more controlled on his walks now and has blossomed into such a cuddly boy. He loves being stroked under his armpits🤣
He is quick to learn new things and we can only imagine the potential he will have in his forever home when he finds it 🐾
He is going to make the best furry friend for the right person🐶 We hope we can find Pharaoh his forever home before Christmas 🎄🤞🏽

Introducing our lovely new lady, Dolcie ❤️

We have taken a chance on Dolcie, hoping someone out there will take a chance on her.

Dolcie is completely deaf and has been since birth. This means she will require someone to take the time to gain her trust, and why we won’t be able to rehome her with younger children. Being deaf it will take time and patience. Our best example of this is that currently, you need to be careful how you approach her as if she can’t hear you coming she can react.

Dolcie also has a lifelong infection, Leishmaniasis. This is controlled with daily medication but we would suggest any potential adopters look into it a bit more as it will be a condition that needs monitoring for her whole life. Dogs with Leishmania can live good lives with the correct medication.
Please note that we would look to gain financial support towards the medication for this treatment.

Dolcie has some lifelong issues that make her a harder dog to home, however with patience and love, she would make an amazing companion.
Dolcie has been in a home situation where she hasn’t been able to get as much excercise as she needs, so we are looking to the right environment where they will give her the love & energy she needs to thrive.

She is a beautiful girl and we hope people see the beauty we do❤️🐶

We would love to find little Pips home before Christmas 🤞🏽

So far he hasn’t had much interest at all. He has spent 3 Christmas’s in kennels already 💔

He can’t be rehomed with pets or children but Pip would bring so much laughter and happiness to a home. He just needs someone to take a chance on him!

It’s crazy that a dog can spend this long in a kennel without getting a home. Anyone who meets Pip knows how great he is. He’s a typical terrier so is toy mad! With the right people, he would flourish.

Please share Pip in the hope we can find someone special to show him how amazing life can be🐶🤞🏽

11/11/2024

Some wonderful news to share this evening ❤️

Billy and Freya have officially been rehomed meaning they get to spend the rest of their years back on a sofa 🐶🐾

We are so happy for the pair of them and can’t wait to hear about their future lives 🐕

⭐️Thor update⭐️

Thank you to everyone who donated to help with Thors medical bills! You all helped us raise an amazing amount. His ears are already starting to improve after some injections and having daily medicated baths for them. He is starting to feel a lot better in himself as enjoys running after balls a lot more now!
We can’t wait until Thor is back to himself completely ❤️

In the mean time, he hasn’t had much interest at all since we popped him up to find his home 💔
He is only a one year old who’s a big softie when he’s more comfortable. He’s good with dogs and children over 10. We don’t want him to spend much of his young life with us 🐶🐾

10/11/2024

Lovely Arlo has officially been rehomed!

We can’t wait to hear all about his future life and adventures he gets up to🐶🐾

We are on the hunt for Thors forever home❤️

You guys helped us raise an amazing amount of money to cover his vet bill! He has an allergy to poultry he ended up with his sores, which are hopefully now on the mend after having a change in diet.

He deserves an amazing home!

Please call us on 01903883116 if you would like to give this boy a home🐶

Our annual dog show 2024 was a huge success! We had SO many amazing stallholders attend and hundreds of you all came to visit during the day. More dogs than you could count also made the day extra special🐶 Our raffle was more successful than we could have ever imagined and so many of you entered your dogs into our dog show yesterday. All raffle winners will be contacted within the next couple of days and photos of the day will be following this week and next week! We couldn’t have made this as successful as we did without all of you who contributed to the whole event. We had an amazing team of volunteers who helped pull off the day, we are beyond grateful for all of their help. It would not have been possible without them. And our wonderful trustees, who all attended on the day including Maxine and Hazel who helped put the whole event together. Our team is wonderful🐾 ⭐️⭐️We raised an amazing £11,888.91!!!!!!!!!!!⭐️⭐️ Double what we raised last year, just incredible. A massive thank you again to everyone who volunteered, donated, attended and shared our event. You are amazing and have massively helped us help the dogs in need 🐶🖤

Don’t forget we have the amazing Purple Dynamics with us at the dog show on Sunday. They will be holding a ‘give a go’ all day for you to see if your dogs have what it takes to do flyball! The best thing is half way through the day at 1pm, they will be showing off their team and how the professionals do it!

Do you think your dog has the waggiest tail like Hettie? Then you need to enter your dog into the Happiest Dog category at our dog show this Sunday!🐶 It will be held at 12.20 and this year it is sponsored by a returning business Forge Fitness

Slow mo Bruce🐶 he is somehow still looking for his forever home!

Nothing can make you smile more than a sausage running 🐶

Our purpose...

Clymping Dog Sanctuary was started almost 70 years ago by Mrs Kathleen Grellier & her friend Her Grace the Duchess of Norfolk. Together they wanted to help animals in need. Nowadays the Sanctuary is run by volunteers and is based in Ford. We are a Registered Charity under the Charities Act 1960 - Charity Reg No. 279937 Our purpose is to take in, treat, care for and find homes for unwanted and abandoned dogs in our community. We never to put a clinically healthy dog down, which means we sometimes have a few long term "stayers" until the right owner comes along. We also have dogs who we feel will never be homed and they stay with us forever - for these dogs we run a sponsorship scheme to fund their lifetime care.

The minimum cost to us to care for a dog is £11 a day to feed and home - often veterinary bills take this amount to much, much more. We are a small but determined charity and are continually fundraising to keep the Sanctuary open and provide the best care we can for the dogs.

If you would like to sponsor one our dogs, please find out more on our donations and sponsorship page or you can make an online donation by using the link below. Every penny you donate goes to help the dogs that are in our care today and who will arrive needing help tomorrow.

Thank you x
