One of our amazing dog owners completed the Dundee Kiltwalk to raise money for Dog Aid Scotland.

His Dog Aid Scotland dog, Charlie and his other dog Leia managed to do some of the walk too! They loved being a part of it and raised everyone’s spirits on the last part of the walk!

We are so grateful for the £390 raised so far.

UPDATE: Indy has found a new home

Indy is an 8-year-old sweetheart looking for a new home through no fault of his own.

He’s a loving, playful boy who would thrive in a home where someone is around during the day and there’s a garden to explore.

He loves when children visit and loves his toys, cuddles, and fun walks.

Indy’s friendly with everyone he meets – though he might give a little bark when someone’s at the door.

Out and about, Indy walks well off-lead (though his recall isn’t great!) and can be vocal on-lead, but only because he wants to say hi. He travels well in the car and is happy at the groomer.

Under our Old Dog Scheme, any non-routine treatment Indy may need in future is covered. ❤️

Indy is affectionate, fun, and full of love – could you be his forever family?

Apply now if you think you’re the perfect match!

🐾 Elsie & Winnie are looking for a home together! 🐾

These two are the best of friends and are looking for a new home together. Elsie (2, black/brown Jackapoo) is playful and bouncy, while Winnie (3, grey/white Shih-Poo) is affectionate and sensitive.

They love company during the day, playing in the garden, and going on long walks.

They’re great with children aged 6+ and enjoy meeting other dogs, but no cats, please. Both girls walk on harnesses, are happy being groomed, and love a good chew or a fun game of fetch.

Elsie is full of energy and loves attention, but can be a little timid in new situations. Winnie is very loving, especially once she knows you.

They’re fine being left for a few hours, travel well by car, and both respond well to training. They would love a garden to play in together.

📩 Apply now if you think Elsie & Winnie are the perfect pair for you!

Refreshing Our Skills – First Aid Matters!🩺

Yesterday, the Dog Aid Scotland team is refreshing our First Aid knowledge with a training course from the brilliant First Aid Training East Scotland (FATES) 💪

We last did this course three years ago, and while it’s technically a refresher, it covers the full First Aid at Work syllabus – helping ensure we’re confident and prepared for any emergency.

A huge thank you to FATES for helping us stay up to date and ready to support our community.

Happy International Dog Day to all our doggy friends.
