News

Open Day

The Branch's next Open Day will be held on Sunday 1st July at Mount Street. Doors are open from 11am and close at 3 pm. Members of the public are invited to view all our animals. There will be a café in the Clinic waiting room. We will have a fun dog show, so bring along your pet dogs (sorry, none with docked tails or pedigrees can enter the show, due to RSPCA standards). There will be a number of stalls selling a variety of items. There will be face painting and lucky dips for the children and tombola for everyone. You can visit the operating side of the clinic to see where sick animals are made better.

Horse and Pony Crisis

From the national RSPCA: We are facing a £3.2 million bill to look after all our horses! £15 could help to pay for a month's worth of hay - www.rspca.org.uk/stablefuture

Or do you have any spare tack, rugs or other equine equipment for our rescue horses? Please help us - www.rspca.org.uk/tack

Kennel Refurbishment: We're half-way there!

A big thank-you to all our well-wishers who have supported the refurbishment of the Rudd Kennel, where our dogs live while waiting to be rehomed. Your generosity has brought us half-way to our target of £20,000.

But we still need more donations to reach the £20,000 mark that will let us make all the needed improvements.

If you are visiting the Branch, please contribute whatever you can spare to the collecting box at Reception. Alternatively, you can send cheques made out to RSPCA Bradford and District Branch to the Animal Home address. Please include a covering note stating that your donation is for the Rudd Kennel refurbishment.

Thank you for helping create a happy, healthy environment for our long- and short-term residents.
