Saving Saints Rescue & Big Paws Welfare
About us
At Saving Saints & Big Paws Welfare, our mission transcends the traditional boundaries of rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming. We place equal emphasis on prevention and education, advocating for the welfare of all large and giant breed dogs. Our goal is not just to address the immediate challenges of large and giant breed ownership but to illuminate the often-overlooked reality: despite their imposing stature, large and giant breeds possess unique vulnerabilities. We also help and support other mixed breeds of dogs that are often overlooked and at risk of abuse or destruction in the UK and other parts of the world. We are a member of the Association of Dogs & Cats Homes and Kennel Club breed rescue for St Bernards.
Our adoption policy
Before completing the form, please ask yourself honestly if you are in a position to give a rescue dog a space in your life. Rescue dogs often come with baggage and will need some time and patience to settle in and begin to trust again. Please remember that most dogs rescued may have very limited or no accurate history and their past lives are often abusive or neglectful. Are you fully prepared to help the dog learn to love again? Will you commit to continue the behavioural training or health needs regime that our volunteers have begun and stick to it? We provide lifelong back up and a wealth of expertise to help you and your dog have an enriching life together and are proud to have a wide range of adopters from many backgrounds, ages and living situations.
If you can honestly say yes to the above, then please continue……a dog needs you and we would love you to be a member of Saving Saints & Big Paws Welfare.
