This sunday please come and visit us at himley hall and park for armed forces day.
We will have a wide range of natural treats for our well deserved dogs who save many peoples lives every year. ❤️🐾

Dogs have been used in warfare since ancient times for a variety of purposes, including as scouts, messengers, trackers, and sentries. Today, the military uses dogs, known as Military Working Dogs (MWDs), for many different jobs, including: Patrol, Explosive detection, Search and rescue, Attack, and Drug detection.
MWDs are trained for specific tasks through sessions that can include agility courses, bite work, and searching cars. Their high sense of smell is invaluable, with some sniffer dogs having up to 300 million olfactory receptors in their noses, compared to about six million in humans.
The British Army's 1st Military Working Dog Regiment uses Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd Dogs for patrol work, as well as for sentry duties, crowd control, and escorting detainees. The Royal Air Force (RAF) also uses MWDs to protect high-value military locations.

FOUND A GROUNDED SWIFT? HERE'S HOW TO HELP SAVE IT.

1. NEVER 'launch' a grounded swift in the air
2. Bring the swift indoors. House in a deep plastic container, or a ventilated shoe box, lined with a folded tea towel. Keep the swift in a quiet room.
3. NEVER feed it (see below)
4. REHYDRATE carefully by placing a damp cotton wool bud to the side of the swift's beak. Take care to avoid the nostrils and don’t try to open the beak as they break easily.
5. CALL US without delay on 07778 768719.

We may be dealing with another call so leave a message and we'll respond quickly.

If you're in the Leeds area you can send a photo and a message, including your name and location to the number above via WhatsApp.

If you’re not in Leeds, contact Swift & Swallow SOS- Coordinating Rescues & Supporting Finders to find a rehabber or browse the list of rehabbers on the Swift Conservation page.

We’re very busy but we want to respond quickly and efficiently so please don’t email or use Facebook Messenger for emergencies.

WHY DO SWIFTS BECOME GROUNDED?

Adult swifts can become grounded when returning to their nest sites if fights occur or if they are tired and underweight. Later in the season, chicks often fall out of the nest if they get too warm, too hungry during cold weather or simply if they start to move around to exercise their wings. If this happens they need urgent specialist care.

Swift chicks stay in the nest for a remarkable 40-45 days depending on the abundance of insects. They are not able to fly until their wings measure 16-17cm and extend about 3.5cm beyond their tail. They then they make their way to Africa, unaided, without ever perching. In fact, after fledging, a swift might not land again for 2-3 years. This highly developed aerial specialist needs an insectivorous diet to survive. If you find a grounded swift please follow the instructions above.

Do not throw it into the air under any circumstances and never leave a bird out in the sun.

Make sure that you have correctly identified the bird. We can help with this.

Please do not feed the bird at all no matter how much it begs. Grounded swifts are generally dehydrated and emaciated and can die if they are fed in this condition. Under no circumstances must you feed meat, dried mealworms or seed. A swift is an entirely insectivorous bird.

Please do not put a swift in a cage. A grounded swift is unable to fly and a cage will irreparably damage its long flight feathers.

Hopefully we can provide the help it needs as quickly as possible and enable it to fledge successfully.

We thank you in advance for helping us to help your swift
