BRITISH DALMATIAN WELFARE

Welcome to the British Dalmatian Welfare website. We are a Registered Charity and our aim is to help, support, offer advice, and in some cases rehome Dalmatians whatever their background or breeding. We are the contact for local authorities for stray Dalmatians and we liaise with other dog rescue charities with a Dalmatian on their books. Occasionally we have to rescue Dalmatians being kept in very poor conditions - these Dalmatians often need considerable care before we can rehome them. We get help from British Dalmatian Club members and friends nationwide.

Dalmatians are a boisterous characterful breed who often find themselves in homes which are unable to cope with their natural exuberance and high level of activity.

Dalmatians are not the easiest of breeds to own. They are a funloving energetic breed that crave human companionship and are not a good pet for anyone working full time. Left alone for long periods they will certainly become bored which could result in them becoming hyperactive and destructive.

If you still feel a Dalmatian is the only breed for you then please have a look through this Website. We regularly update these pages as there are Dalmatians in need of new homes coming to us daily. Of course some of these are young family friendly Dalmatians that are easy to rehome and others may be older, require a loving home and less exercise. If you are interested, please contact us. Alternatively potential adopters can call 07976 360468, or to discuss rehoming your Dalmatian or any other enquiry call 07905 495084.

In addition to finding permanent new homes for Dalmatians we also use foster homes. This is usually for urgent short term needs such as an owner going into hospital or losing their home. Many of these dogs are older and may require veterinary treatment before we can rehome them permanently. If you could look after a Dalmatian short term, perhaps as a companion to your existing dog, please contact us or ring the adoption line.
