IN reply to the letter regarding our fees by Mr B Boarder

The adoption charges are £70 - £150 for the dogs and £35 for cats

The last time we charged £150 for a dog was January 2016

The charge includes neutering, worming, de-fleaing, vaccinations, microchipping, food, heating, lighting, wages, insurance

Petrol, repairs, home visits, name tag and all that goes with the day to day running of the shelter.

We could give our dogs away for free and have the adopters (on trust basis) carry out all the necessary work at their expense, this would cost you around £220 minimum depending on the size and sex of the dog
