Margaret Green Animal Rescue is a pet rescue charity in Dorset and Devon which rehomes a large variety of rescue pets from pet rabbits, pet mice, dogs and cats to chickens, ducks, horses and goats.
Become a volunteer and help rescue pets:
Volunteers are invaluable at the Margaret Green Animal Rescue sanctuaries enabling much more personal attention and affection to be given to the animals. All volunteers to the charity are such an asset to us which we very much appreciate. We could not do without their devoted help to the rescue pets. |

Debbie's story:
Debbie Eddie has been a weekend
volunteer dog walker at Lincoln Farm
pet rescue centre in Dorset since 2002.
She saw an article in the local paper about dogs and cats in need of rehoming. However, on her first visit to Lincoln Farm she saw a plea for dog walkers, and has been with us ever since, come rain or shine! "I love it" says Debbie. |

Debbie is also responsible for undertaking home checks in the Bournemouth and Poole area of Dorset. "This is an important and very rewarding part of the job for me, especially when you see you have the right dogs and cats in the right home." She also gets involved in other charity events whenever she can, like the annual dog show, sponsored dog walks (which she loves as she can be re-united with some old doggy friends and their owners) and collecting food donations. "I am always on the look out for ways in which I can help even more. All my family and friends are aware of the charity work I do at the sanctuary and are constantly on the look out for blankets, towels, etc which are always in demand."
We asked Debbie why she would recommend being a volunteer. "The dogs and cats are so appreciative and the expressions on their faces are just so amazing. You cannot help but be moved by the helpless position some of the pets find themselves in, through no fault of their own. These animals can never have too much time spent on them, they love company and the extra walk or two a day the dogs get from volunteers means so much to them. You will derive a great sense of personal satisfaction too so come and try it out as I did. You won't regret it!" |
