About Brighter Day Rescue

Brighter Days Rescue is a registered dog rescue charity dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming dogs from both the UK and abroad. Operating two centres—one in Penkridge with capacity for up to 30 dogs and a smaller specialist site in Lancaster—the charity provides safe, nurturing environments tailored to each dog’s needs, including behavioural support and spacious outdoor areas. Since being founded in 2022, Brighter Days Rescue has successfully rescued and rehomed over 400 dogs, supporting owners in crisis, working with local vets, and helping dogs at risk of unnecessary euthanasia. The charity also partners with trusted rescues in countries such as Spain, Romania, Bulgaria, and Bosnia to give vulnerable dogs a second chance in the UK. Through thorough health checks, careful adopter screening, and responsible rehoming, Brighter Days Rescue remains committed to giving every dog the opportunity for a brighter, happier future.

Available at our kennels based in PenkridgeMeet Pippa!Pippa is finding kennel life very overwhelming and would love a calm, loving foster home where she can begin to feel safe and build her confidence. She’s looking for a foster who is home most of the day and has a friendly, confident dog who can help show her the ropes.Pippa would need positive training to help her feel comfortable in a crate, so that in time she can relax and be left safely for short periods.

Smudge

Staffordshire
SexMale
Age1 year
BreedBorder Collie

Available at our kennels based in PenkridgeMeet Smudge!Smudge is finding kennel life very frightening. He had started to make great progress in a foster home, but unfortunately he didn’t get along with their entire, small dog.Since coming back to kennels just a day ago, Smudge has already begun to regress, so we are urgently looking for a new foster home where he can feel safe again and continue building his confidence.Smudge would need an experienced foster carer who understands nervous dogs and can give him the patience and reassurance he needs. He could live with other dogs his size or larger (he is around the size of a Border Collie), but a home without small dogs would be essential.Smudge walks nicely on the lead and travels well in the car, something he became used to in his previous foster home. Smudge’s previous foster has worked very hard to make progress with him, so we want this to continue by finding him a new foster as soon as possible.While in foster, Smudge will remain under our care. This means the charity will cover all of his expenses, including food and veterinary costs.• Rescued from Romania• Microchipped• Fully vaccinated• Not neutered• Able to live with large dogs• Able to live with cats• No children
