THE MISSION
To Provide much needed support for the homeless pet-owner population in London & other cities across the country. Many homeless dog owners struggle to access help, often turned away from hostels because of their furry friends. We don't think this is right or fair.
Every purchase made on our website will contribute directly to supporting their crucial work.

REVIEWS
Hear From D.O.T.S Clients
❝ Totally helpful since I found out about Dogs On The Streets, they help me out every week given me advice about dog training, provide my dog with healthy food. I use to beg and shoplift for my dog's food and I have a criminal record for stealing dog food. I don’t do that anymore now I have Dogs On The Streets. When my dog needed immunisations and I didn't have the money to have this done Dogs on The Streets did them with no cost for my dog. ❞
