We are Dogs Walk This Way Rescue, a not for profit organisation dedicated to improving the lives of abandoned dogs from Romania.
Our organisation is run by a team of volunteers at our kennels in Bagshot and Longcross, Surrey and we have lots of fosterers in other UK locations. Not only do we bring abandoned dogs from Romania to the UK for a better life, we also support rescues in Romania who save dogs from the cruelty and neglect of kill-shelters by providing food, medication, neutering programs and other essential support. |

Our aim is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome as many of the these dogs as possible. We have rehomed over 2000 dogs since the organisation was launched, but there is so much more to do.
CONGRATULATIONS TO SKY & CHRISSY
One of our doggies Sky and her amazing adopter Chrissy Harrison won at CRUFTS in the Welsh rally obedience class.
The partnership these two have is just incredible and just goes to show anything is possible when you put your mind to it! Chrissy has been dedicated and committed and these pair regularly compete in Canicross competitions also.

Here's some information about Sky from Chrissy written before Crufts:
Sky was found on the side of the road in Romania in December 2018 frozen cold with her litter siblings. I adopted her in February 2019. We bonded very quickly but she needed lots of reassurance domestically. I quickly discovered she had extremely high prey drive and she couldn't be off lead unless in a secure environment. I started her training indoors doing dog tricks and earlier this year she gained her "Champion Dog Trick" Title, and is also through to the final of TRICK DOG OF THE YEAR 2021. To exercise her onlead I began to run with her, and during lockdown we began our Canicross training. We regularly enjoy Parkrun and have started to enter Canix events this Autumn. She also competed in online Rally Obedience Competitions during lockdown by video, and was very successful. We took part in the Try Outs for the Welsh Rally Team in October and got selected to represent Wales at Crufts in 2022 I am so proud of this little rescue dog! She has come so far in 2½ years and being selected for Crufts is a dream come true.
