Susie James and her rescue dog Basil will be walking the 177 mile Offa’s Dyke path to raise much needed funds for Hope Rescue. This epic walk will start in Prestatyn on 29th May 2010 and will end 2 weeks later in Chepstow. Susie and Basil are appealing for both human and canine volunteers to join them for a day along the scenic route, or alternatively take the less challenging option and sponsor them.
Hope Rescue is a South Wales based dog rescue charity that helps hundreds of stray dogs in Local Authority pounds every year. The rescue is entirely self-funded and run by volunteers with no paid staff and this challenge will raise vital funds towards their running costs.
Susie says “Basil was rescued from a stray dog pound by Hope Rescue. Without their help he would have been destroyed after completing his 7 days in the pound. This is our way of saying thank you for saving his life, and we need all those dog lovers out there to support us and raise as much money as possible for this wonderful charityâ€
