DAWGS

Charity registered in Scotland SC022666

DAWGS (Dog Action Working Group Scotland) is a Scottish charity dedicated to finding loving new homes for dogs in need or those whose owners can no longer care for them. Based in Aberdeenshire, we work closely with our local community and beyond to support the welfare and rehoming of dogs across the North East of Scotland.

Founded over 30 years ago by a passionate group of volunteers, DAWGS has always been guided by the principle of "rehoming with love." Over the years, we’ve expanded our reach and impact, including fostering programs to support dogs while they await their forever homes.

Volunteers remain at the heart of everything we do, and their dedication ensures that we continue to provide second chances for our furry friends. Our story, as told in "It’s a DAWGS Life," is a testament to the power of compassion and community.

At DAWGS, our mission is simple: rehoming dogs with love and care, one wagging tail at a time.
