We’d love to know. Whether your dog has firework fears, or is unbothered by whizzes and bangs, your input will help us help more dogs. By taking part in [our new survey](11681680@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@), you can help inform the advice we give to dog owners and our future interventions in reducing fear of fireworks in dogs. The survey ends on 14 January, so take part today.

Bosnia, located in Southeastern europe, has had a significant stray dog problem for a long time. In 2012, we launched a long-term project to support local authorities to tackle the issue. Since this, we’ve also launched an education programme, community dog schools and a fostering scheme.

Just before Christmas he was found alone, barely able to walk due to his severely matted fur. We don’t know how long he’d had to live in such a state. But we’ve treated his sores and clipped his fur, and we’ll keep him warm and cosy until we find his forever home.

That little face was irresistible! He didn’t have the best start in life, so we knew he’d need a caring new family that would be patient and give him the time and love he deserved. On 2 January 2022, Waffles went home with his new paw-rents, Leanne and Tom. He’s now enjoying a peaceful life in Yorkshire with a garden perfect for playing in, and plenty of walks along Saltburn beach. We couldn’t imagine a better start to the year! 11681662@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@ [Our rehoming process](11681663@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Get involved](11681665@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [News & events](11681666@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Help & advice](11681667@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Facebook](11681668@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Twitter](11681669@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Instagram](11681670@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [YouTube](11681671@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [LinkedIn](11681672@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) [Unsubscribe from our emails](IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@1) | [Read our privacy policy](11681673@IMCmKqjNNlGCTZQX9LRlKV7M-SB24CwzDnWEh3mNse0.@) Your supporter number is 6687954.
