Dogs Trust, the UK’s largest canine welfare charity, has announced a new partnership with heritage footwear brand Hush Puppies.
The collaboration will see Hush Puppies donate 10p per pair of school shoes sold on HushPuppies.co.uk or in-store as part of their back-to-school campaign.
Supporting Dogs Trust’s Mission
Since 1891, Dogs Trust has been dedicated to creating a better future for dogs and their owners. In 2023 alone, the charity cared for 13,374 dogs and successfully rehomed 10,588 of them. The funds raised through this partnership with Hush Puppies will support Dogs Trust in continuing its vital work.
Owen Sharp, Chief Executive Officer at Dogs Trust, emphasised the importance of this partnership: “From rehabilitation to rehoming, we’re here to make life better for dogs in need. We believe that every dog that comes through our doors deserves to find a loving new home. Partnering with Hush Puppies on their back-to-school campaign this year will make a great difference to the level of support we’re able to give our dogs and their owners. Every penny donated will help us ensure we can continue to give dogs in our care everything they need until they find their forever homes.”
A New Home for Dasher and Posie
Two Basset Hound cross pups, Dasher and Posie, are among the many dogs currently seeking their forever home through Dogs Trust. This dynamic mother and son duo arrived at Dogs Trust West Calder in 2023 after an unfortunate start in life. Since then, they have become favourites among the staff at the Rehoming Centre.
Dasher and Posie are looking for a family who can provide them with the attention and training they need. Their ideal owners would be home often and comfortable walking in quiet areas, offering them the time and patience to adapt to home life.
The Role of Hush Puppies
Hush Puppies, with its iconic Basset Hound logo, aligns perfectly with the mission of Dogs Trust. The brand’s back-to-school campaign will directly support the charity, ensuring that more dogs like Dasher and Posie receive the care and love they deserve. The donation of 10p per pair of school shoes will help Dogs Trust provide for the dogs in their care until they find new homes.
This partnership reflects Hush Puppies’ commitment to supporting canine welfare and enhancing the lives of dogs across the UK. By choosing Hush Puppies for back-to-school footwear, customers can contribute to a meaningful cause and support Dogs Trust in its mission to improve the lives of dogs and their owners.
