UK Dog Rescue Crisis - Insurance Petition

A petition challenging insurance companies do not automatically refuse insurance renewal for rescue charities. With the UK dog rescue sector already in a state of crisis, this presents a potentially existential threat and see rescues have to cease operations and reduce availability when demand is already swamping services. Please support this petition created by the Pro Dogs Direct rescue organisation to try and help convince insurance companies to follow a case-by-case approach.

Please also share this as widely as you can so we can call on as wide support as possible.

This is just another in a series of issues facing rescues across the country. This article outlines many of them.

On the 21st of February 2023, the All-Party Dog Advisory Welfare Group are holding a meeting at the Houses of Parliament concerning the state of dog rescue in the UK. It's being well attended with 100 representatives from dog rescues across the UK. There are still seats available so if you'd like to get involved get in touch with them.
