Essential to our Volunteer Dog Walker’s Role: Rescue Remedies is an internet based Rescue. The public and all other members of our Rescue learn about our dogs through each volunteer’s impression and the photos portrayed. It is essential that you join our Forum and update with the support of the kennel co-ordinator. All communication goes through the Forum, with a support area section and newsletter and events etc keeping you up-to-date. Remember if you discover dog walking isn’t possible for you there are many other ways to support our dogs see HOW CAN I HELP section of our Forum.
