Let’s make this a hoppy Easter for pup and human alike. And if sending cards is more your thing, leave the licks to our furry friends and choose the paw‑fect [e‑card](9287592@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) instead.

Our [online rehoming](9287551@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) service is still up and woof‑ing, so if you’re ready to adopt a pooch, this paw‑tal to parentage will tell you everything you need to know about the process. Happy rehomes mean the world to us, and each success story makes it all worth it. Four‑month‑old Margot came to us in December after she was given as a present to a family who couldn’t care for her. Dyllis arrived at our doors last summer, after being found as a stray. Merlin and Harvey sadly lost their owner to Covid‑19 and found themselves in our care. We were able to find them all perfect new homes. 9287552@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@ As the pandemic continues to affect us all in different ways, it’s likely that more devoted dog owners will be faced with the heartbreaking decision to give up their dog. Help us to change the tale for dogs like Margot, Dyllis, Merlin and Harvey.

Now we need to be there for them as life changes again. We need to prepare dogs for life after lockdown. Our [roadmap](9287555@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) for dogs will teach them the key skills for each step of restrictions easing.

Dun‑nun. No, we aren’t talking about that kind of Shark. This is your chance to win a Shark TruePet vacuum cleaner.

It's their favourite time of day, so it's understandable if your dog wants you to get a move on. But pulling on the lead can be dangerous, especially if your dog’s strong enough to pull you over! If your pooch is pulling, our [four simple tips](9287564@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) can help rein them in.

If they should go walkabout, having contact details on their tag is often the quickest way to reunite you with your pooch. It's also a legal requirement in public places. Our [personalised tags](9287567@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) come in a range of styles, sizes and colours, including an exclusive Dogs Trust tag so your pooch can show their suppawt. 9287569@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@ [Buy a dog tag](9287570@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Protect your pooch](9287571@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) Losing your dog, or having them taken from you, is an unbearable thought.
