UPDATE FROM MANCHESTER DOGS HOME The staff and trustees of Manchester Dogs’ Home would like to express their enormous gratitude for the huge support received from the public following the devastating fire on site Thursday night. All of the surviving dogs are now being cared for – the majority of them going to sister site Cheshire Dogs’ Home near Warrington – and those in need of veterinary treatment have been receiving it. The Dogs’ Home has been inundated with messages of support from members of the public and local businesses. Donations can be made via justgiving/dogshome. We have now setup a telephone number – 08445040404 staffed by volunteers to co-ordinate enquiries – members of the public are urged not to come to Manchester Dogs’ Home, as the police investigation will be continuing and access is restricted. Other charities stepped in immediately to help, for which the Dogs’ Home is also very grateful. While the charity now needs to assess the situation and determine next steps, Manchester Dogs’ Home would like to commend its staff, many of whom witnessed atrocious sights on Thursday evening. In the coming days the Dogs’ Home will be letting members of the public know how they can help both practically and financially. We would like to express our enormous gratitude to the local community for their wonderful help during this sad event. Our heartfelt thanks also go out to the Emergency Services for their consumate professionalism and caring assistance. We would also like to thank all of the wonderful people from all over the U.K. and further afield for their generousity and support, in the past 48 hours our sad story seems to have touched so many people all over the World. Latest Update at 5 pm Saturday 13th September At the moment the response has been so great Cheshire Dogs’ Home is gridlocked so till further notice please be patient and stay away from our Cheshire Home, we have been informed by the Police that the M6 and M56 are congested with wellwishers trying to reach us, we would be very grateful if you could postpone your visit till next week-end. dogshome.net/
