At Chimney Farm we rescue dogs in need from within the UK and abroad. We formed our rescue in 2014 and have since managed to rescue and rehome thousands of dogs in need. Our dogs come from a variety of countries and have very sad starts to their lives, they have been let down by humans but with the help of rescuers, fosterers, volunteers and adopters together we can change their lives and give them hope and trust.

Team return from the Mayday Algarve Shelter in Portugal
After a short few days our team has just returned from the Algarve. They have worked non stop and have achieved a lot in just a few days. They have walked 33 miles in 2 1/2 days walking each of the 74 dogs each day. De-wormed and de-flea’d 74 dogs. Patched up a badly cut paw, bathed and wrapped a very sick dog's paws, sedated and caught 2 large boys, who are petrified of human touch, for castration. Taken blood samples, helped with booster vaccinations and raised funds for the items they have purchased and extra towards treating a sick dog, blood tests for 20 dogs. Made a pharmacy trip to buy some bandage and skin wound supplies. We've also selected 4 dogs- Oscar, Zumba, Eion and Orlando, to bring to the UK for rehoming - lots more will leave the shelter over the next few months. You'll see them on our available for adoption page - click here |

Running now - our fundraising auction
Come and join us on our auction page, where we are raising money for our partner shelter in Portugal. The Mayday Algarve shelter is run by Karen and her team who have over 80 dogs currently under their care. Lots of puppies, a mum who had just given birth, and dogs aged between 6 months and 10 years. They do not have the best shelter and we would love to be able raise funds at the auction to be able to buy wooden houses which will keep out the heat in the summer and be warmer for the winter/rain conditions. And some vet beds to keep them nice a cosy |
