Supporting local organisations, community events and international animal welfare work.

At The Doggy Day Care Centre, we believe a successful business has a responsibility to contribute positively to the wider community. From supporting local initiatives to partnering with international charities, our commitment extends well beyond day-to-day dog care.

To celebrate our achievement as Dog Day Care Business of the Year at the 2025 Pet Industry Federation Awards, we pledged £2,000 to U-Hearts, an international animal welfare charity that works across Ukraine and surrounding regions. Their mission is to protect and support vulnerable dogs and the people caring for them in areas heavily affected by conflict and hardship.

This partnership reflects our wider belief that compassion has no borders, and we are proud to contribute to vital work taking place far beyond the North East.

Pegswood Community Hub

We are proud supporters of the Pegswood Community Hub, contributing high-quality raffle items and fundraising gifts throughout the year. These help the Hub raise vital funds for local projects and community services that make a real difference in the village.

Longhoughton Rangers Football Club Sponsorship

The Doggy Day Care Centre is proud to sponsor Longhoughton Rangers Football Club, funding kits, equipment and opportunities that help young players grow through sport and teamwork.

Community Event Support

Alongside direct financial support, we also regularly contribute prizes and support to local organisers across the region, strengthening community ties and helping events flourish.

Dog-Friendly Zones Led by The Doggy Day Care Centre

We are honoured to lead the dog activity areas at some of the North East’s most loved fairs and community events, with help from Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter and Great North Service Dogs.These events include:

• Morpeth Fair
• Blyth Fair

These events allow families to enjoy engaging, safe and educational dog-friendly activities, delivered by our experienced team.

Our pledge is simple. As we continue to grow, we will keep investing back into the North East and supporting international causes where we believe we can make a meaningful impact. Whether locally or beyond, we are committed to making a positive difference wherever we can.
