You and your friendly dog could make a huge difference to the lives of older dog lovers in your community, with just 1-2 hours a week! Wag & Company (Wag) is the only visiting dog charity in the North East.
To be a Wag volunteer, loving dog owners must have had their dog for at least six months, and be happy to follow their veterinary guidelines (complying with national standards for visiting dogs). If your dog is friendly and well-behaved, is at least 18 months old, enjoys being handled – and you think your dog would enjoy volunteering – check out Wag's suitability and assessment criteria. You could help bring companionship, comfort, and joy to those who need it most.
