Sponsor a Dog

Would you like to help us help dogs? Then why not consider sponsoring a dog? Just click below for more information.

Please note that due to limited resources we are only able to rehome our dogs within a 20 mile radius of Reigate.

Epsom Canine Rescue was formed as a registered charity in 1995, and our work is carried out by a handful of dedicated volunteers in their spare time - we have no paid staff. Where possible all of our dogs prior to rehoming are neutered, vaccinated and micro-chipped.

Long Term Foster Dogs

As a small rescue, we sometimes get asked to take in dogs that require lifetime support; this could be due to a traumatic past where they have suffered abuse or neglect, a terminal illness or just purely old age. These dogs remain under our 'banner' either in specialist foster homes or with us at HQ x ECR fund all ongoing medication, food where necessary and monthly Advocate/Milpro/Bravecto.

Dogs Currently under Assessment

These are dogs in our care but are either working on a behavioural programme or undergoing medical treatment prior to been offered for adoption.

Visiting Us

Like most small rescues we do not have a centre you can just turn up and visit, as many of our dogs are in foster homes in the local area, whilst some are in private boarding kennels.

All dogs that we have available are shown on our website. If you are interested in meeting and potentially homing any of them, we would ask that you please complete the Rehoming Application Form HERE in the first instance. Unfortunately it is not possible to meet the dogs without first completing the form.
