Sponsor a Staffie

Make a Staffie Smile Today by signing up to our sponsorship scheme!

Please consider sponsoring one of our dogs that are in long term foster homes. 

Occasionally, we have dogs arrive into rescue that sadly come with severe behavioural issues or health issues. We are so lucky to have a family of amazing foster homes who take these dogs under their wings and provide them with a lifetime of love. 

Our long term fosters are supported by the wings of Staffie and Stray Rescue, this means that the rescue supports all funds associated with the dogs including the likes of food and vet bills. 

We are reaching out to our supporters to sponsor one of our long term foster dogs for just £5 a month to help towards their needs. 

As a thank you for sponsoring a dog, you will receive:

  • A certificate of sponsorship with some thank you gifts included
  • Pupdates and photographs of your sponsored dog throughout the year

Marley

Marley

When Marley came into rescue, we were shocked to find that Marley has an underlying illness called Disc Calcification. She was clearly in a lot of pain.

Calcification of the spine occurs when calcium crystals are deposited in the gelatinous fluid that cushions the vertebrae. When this fluid becomes hardened, it can no longer protect the individual bone sections of the spine. This means that Marley will be on pain relief for the rest of her life and which needs managing.

Kiera

Kiera

Kiera arrived at SSR as an unwanted dog. She was very underweight and very nervous. After having a few foster homes which didn't work out, Keira now resides in one of our amazing foster homes the the foreseeable future. We are unsure of what Kiera has been through in her past, but she is very fearful of people. She has built a lovely trusting bond with her foster mum, but having ongoing behavioural therapy and assessments, we feel that she cannot be rehomed. Kiera is very happy in her long term foster home and will always be supported by the wings of SSR.

Herbie

Herbie

Herbie has meet in multiple homes and foster homes in his short life. He is a very intelligent boy but has struggled settling into any home without being able to fully relaxed. Herbie has a lot of energy and does have some behavioural issues in the home. We now work with Herbie's long term foster home by assisting with his complexities and having our behaviourist on tap for support!

Diesel

Diesel

Diesel arrived to us after being found as a stray.

We managed to secure him a foster home, however it was quite clear as he settled that he had a really tough time being outside on walks and was petrified of other dogs.

We supported Diesel via assistance with walking and the use of our behaviourist. After 7 months of little to no interest, Diesel's foster home decided that they would really struggle to part with him.

Because of Diesel's needs, it was decided that he would be placed on our sponsoship scheme so that he and his foster home can be fully supported for life with SSR!

Your sponsorship will contribute to Diesel's behaviourist fees.

Bubba

Bubba

Bubba has very sadly been through our rescue three times! He had been rehomed twice and the third time he has come back into our care due to owners ill health. Bubba an old boy now and will be on our long term foster scheme with amazing foster mum Marlene!

The rescue will support all his needs to ensure he has a comfortable retirement home.

Casey

Casey

Casey arrived into our care after her owner sadly passed away.

She arrived to us late on a cold and frosty Friday night, she had a long journey to us, but she showed nothing but love and kisses, such a resilient girl!

Because of her age, she had no interest in anyone coming forward to adopt her. She is now in a long term foster home where she can be supported by the rescue for life.

Blaze

Blaze

Blaze arrived into our care due unforeseen circumstances. He arrived with us in February 2025 and into a loving foster home.

Blaze suffered from Lungworm when he was just 9 months old, leaving him with neurological and mobility issues.

He has been cared for so amazingly by his foster mum and he lives a fantastic life! Blaze doesn't let anything stop him!

The rescue are supporting Blaze with his ongoing hydrotherapy and physiotherapy sessions.

Max

Max

Prior to coming to SSR, Max had already had several homes in his life due to no fault of his own.

He was lucky enough to secure a long term foster home, but blood tests confirmed that he was in kidney failure and will need a specialist diet, supplements and regular blood testing for life.

The rescue are supporting Max and his foster home by providing his food, tests, and medications to manage his symptoms as best as we can.

Lola

Lola

Lola was found dumped as a stray with her sibling, Spike.

Lola has been through an awful lot since arriving us. She was very poorly with Lungworm on arrival and has since been having up and down battles with her breathing as the lungworm has left scarring on her heart/lungs.

Lola is very loved in her forever home, but we are supporting Lola with her medical needs

Reggie

Reggie

Reggie arrived to us as a senior dog aged 13 years. He was surrendered by his owner.

Reggie had been in foster care for a quite a while and took some time to settle.

In this settlement time, Reggie starting presenting with some behaviours that were not disclosed by the previous owner.

After having absolutely no interest at all and with a very special home needed, his amazing foster home offered to look after Reggie for the rest of his days knowing that they could fully manage him.

Your donations will support Reggie's food and veterinary bills.
