Dog-friendly holiday company Pets Pyjamas has given £30,000 to a variety of animal charities as a result of recent customer bookings.
A percentage of the company’s booking revenue is donated to charities across the UK nominated by the PetsPyjamas team. Charities that have received funding from the recent £30,000 allocation include Save Our Spaniels, which finds UK homes for abandoned Spaniels and Bretons, and UK German Shepherd Rescue, which rehomes hundreds of dogs and puppies every year.
Managing director James Williams said: “At PetsPyjamas we believe dogs are part of the family and encourage them to holiday with their owners. However, we realise that not every pet or animal is as fortunate as our four-legged customers, which is why it’s so important that we give back in some way to animals that bring so much joy and value to the world.
“With dog ownership at an all-time high in the UK, our customer pool is at the largest it’s ever been, so this year we hope to be able to make a much bigger difference to those smaller organisations who do the most fantastic work for our animal friends.”
The recent allocation brings the total donated by PetsPyjamas to over £132,000. Previous beneficiaries of PetsPyjamas’ charitable programme include The Fox Project, dedicated to the protection, rescue and rehabilitation of wild foxes, and The Oldies Club, run solely by volunteers, which specialises in rescuing and rehoming senior dogs.
