Pet enthusiasts throughout Bedfordshire are welcomed to take their dog to a walk in Silsoe to raise crucial funds for animal charities.
People can take their canine buddies along to the Agria Dog Walk at Wrest Park on Sunday, May 20, for its 4th yearly charity drive.
The dog walk marks the start of Agria’s assistance for English Heritage’s dog-friendly days out, with the family pet insurance company set to contribute £5 for each dog that walks the Bedfordshire countryside. CEO at Agria Pet Insurance, Vicki Wentworth, said: “It’s always so heart-warming to see dog lovers across the country unite to help to make a difference to the lives of animals in the care of rescues.
“We continue to see the cost of living crisis putting rescues under stress, so it’s never been more important to help to care for and rehome animals abandoned due to no fault of their own.”
Spaniel Aid UK is among the charities that will gain from contributions made at the occasion. Emma Atherton from the charity said: “As a small self-funding charity, we rely on donations and fundraising events to help us pay our huge vet bills and buy supplies for our foster dogs.”
She included: “Agria selecting Spaniel Aid UK to be their chosen charity for this event will really help us to keep caring for all dogs in foster with us.”
