Thought we would have to get boats for them this morning!, but a break in the rain at long last to dry off their coats (man made and hair :-) )

Islay Dog Rescue: I Attach Islay Dog Rescues position of imminent closure 😞 I have two dogs from Islay, and i stand here in my kitchen wondering how Dogzdaycare can support them. I will set-up Standing Order with Islay for £100 a month. I am not asking you guys to do the same , but anything will help and I am going to see how I can continue raise constant for them. Any help direct to them I know will be very very welcome. I hate doing the begging bowl thing , but Ayrshire has so few Dog Rescue places.

UPDATE NUMBER TWO
All those that suggested Sponsorship, there is now a form on the web page.

UPDATE : Your response has been overwhelming. Times are hard for everybody so please know how much I appreciate every single penny donated. I can't thank you enough xx

We will close in 3 weeks.

So, this is a post I'd hoped not to make. However, the reality is, along with lots of other rescues in the country, we are against the wall financially.

This picture was taken today, Saturday 11th October 2025. We have enough money to last three weeks.

The cheapest coffee in Costa is £3.70. A cheapest coffee in Greggs is £1.60.

If even a fifth of the 25,000+ donated the price of a Greggs coffee once a month it would generate an income of £8,000.

This means we would survive to continue saving the lives of dogs who need us.

Can you help us please? 🙏🙏🙏

Ben.

Today another of my longest members crossed "that bridge" 😞
Ben joined Dogzdaycare in 2018.
Bens health had been deteriorating for some time but he always bounced back from setbacks as if he was choosing his time to go at a time his Carers could cope best (if there is ever a best time)
For me Ben hung on for his Carers to move house this year, settle in and make it a home and for them to be "settled" and that they are.
He had a long and happy life, loved & cared for always.

MONDAY: Due to the Amber weather warning for Monday I believe it is wise to remain closed.
Apologies to all.

At long last that is the Dogzdaycare outdoor play area with new fencing , posts and mesh... a huge thank you to John Bryson for doing the bottom field for my dogs to run around safely (its only taken 11 years) and the 130 eight foot fence posts being thumped in , 632 feet of 6 foot fencing and a few thousand u nails being fired in, a most knackering job !
30 Fence posts round the arena by my own fair hands, (which my lady wife had 999 on speed dial for my impending heart attack) 6 foot fencing now round a considerable amount of our land about 982 feet of fencing and the Dogzdaycare area fenced in again with John Bryson ensuring I did not botch the fencing and I am sure at times the temptation would have been for him to nail gun me to the fence posts due to my lack of following simple instructions ! 🤣
I can tell you, I feel my age! Gubbed.
