Give a Dog a Bone... and an animal a home

Give a Dog a Bone… and an animal a home is a unique and award-winning charity tackling loneliness through animal companionship and friendship. We do this via two projects: 
1. We support older adults, on low income, to afford a rescue pet companion.  Contributing towards the rehoming fee of a rescue pet and offering ongoing support towards pet insurance. This project is UK wide. 

2. We have four Community Spaces across Scotland. Shawlands, Troon, Alloa and Dunfermline. These are safe spaces where older adults can learn new skills, make new friends and mix with our special team of Companionship Dogs.  We offer a free daily tea and chat service to the whole community, of all ages. 

Additionally, we offer free activities for over 60s such as seated yoga, line dancing, art and language classes.  We also hold regular community dog walks. 

Each Community Space operates a Pet Food Bank where anyone – of any age - can access free pet food.
