Rehabilitation Centre & Sanctuary for Abused & Unwanted Dogs
Charity No: XT39298
Happy Halfway Home was set up in November 2011 for the purposes of rehabilitating and finding permanent homes for dogs suffering from behavioural issues, which might make their successful homing difficult. We take in homeless, unwanted, abused dogs displaying a variety of undesirable behaviours as a result of psychological, emotional and physical problems developed because of neglect, abuse and /
or trauma. We work with the dogs using techniques developed through observation, experience, research and guidance from professional dog psychologists about dog behavioural issues. For the dogs that can be re-homed, we find permanent homes for them and if need be, provide support to the adopters in the form of ongoing guidance and advice.

Hello all,
It's International Dog Day today! So hope you and your waggy-tailed furry babes are having a splendid day!
Lots of love and sloppy licks from all the dogs and humans (well, not the sloppy licks - just the love from us two-leggers!)

Hello all,
I hope you are all well, and enjoying the summer days, spending time in the park, relaxing in our gardens, watching our pets playing around us...
I always loved the summer...
But then I got involved in animal resuce, and everything changed. The summer represents horrific events. I look at my beloved furbabies and I know there are countless others like them in places like the Far Eastern and South Pacific countries being horrifically tortured for the meat trade.
Please sign and share the following petition: Thank you πππππ
Join me in supporting an end to the grisly and cruel dog and cat meat trade and protecting all animals.

The internet is celebrating the anniversary of that pioneering spacecraft NASA called Hubble...
So, I thought we should add a token to it with our own expression of deep space...
Here is our adored and much missed poster pup Zappy...

This is all so hideous and unbearable... How can we consider this acceptable? What gives us humans the right to inflict such terrible abuse on another living creature, especially gentle, intelligent and loving creatures like the ones we abuse on our farms?
Pigs as it happens are more intelligent than dogs. The average intelligence of a pig is that of a three-year-old. There are videos on YouTube of pigs playing with learning toys, solving little puzzles, putting little jigsaws together.
I know eating meat is Mother Nature's way - animals eat each other, but that cannot justify abuse of the level we inflict on the animals we call food.
I feel ashamed to be human.
Please share this post, for the sake of compassion, and 'humanity' though I'm not sure why it's called that since we humans seem to have the least amount of it.

Mother pigs are trapped in cages so tiny they canβt care for their piglets.

There are dogs however who never do manage to find their own homes for a variety of reasons, mostly long term health issues, age or just the way they look. For these dogs we also provide lifelong sanctuary here in our home. These dogs form the HHH pack of residents. Presently we have 8 dogs living here with us in sanctuary, as part of a natural pack. Along with these dogs we also have two mascots Synfie and Sparky, both are disabled dogs we rescued, and both or whom are now the life and soul of our lives here at Happy Halfway Home.
We hope to be able to expand our little operation, to have a playroom built for the dogs who live here permanently, which would also allow us to take in more dogs who need our help, since as it is, we have totally run out of space here. For this purpose we have set up a YouCaring fundraiser. If you would like to help us, please use the link below to access the HHH fundraising page:
