We need your helpStray Aid is currently in the process of gathering funds to build a new kennel block at our rescue centre in Coxhoe. Our dogs deserve the best of care during their stay at the kennels. We therefor need your help to raise £92,000 for a new block of state-of-the-art kennels which we can heat in the winter, and where each dog can have its own exercise area. Please visit our "New Re-homing Centre" page for further details. This will help to make the dogs' lives more comfortable during their stay. This seems like a very large amount, but together we CAN reach it!
