Since the beginning of the pandemic, so many have relied on the unconditional love that comes from owning a pet, with March 2020 seeing a surge in dog ownership.
One charity that has been able to stay open and be there for pets and their owners in Wood Green, The Animals Charity based on Kings Bush Farm, Godmanchester.
The centre remains open to the public by appointment only and specialises in treating and rehabilitating neglected or injured pets alongside matching up prospective dog owners with the perfect companions.
They have also been supporting pet owners with online classes and workshops and returned to TV screens on Thursday (March 11) with the latest series of The Dog House on Channel 4.
The pandemic has hit every charity hard though and Wood Green is no different, they have been running an urgent appeal to raise funds to be able to continue their vital work.

Another way to support the charity is by adopting a pet, due to the pandemic, they are only able to offer adoptions within a one hour radius of their Godmanchester base but that is good news for Peterborough residents. Here is a selection of the adorable dogs currently looking for new homes.
