LONDON RETIRED POLICE DOGS TRUST

London, , SW15 6LH United Kingdom

Mission Statement

The sole aim of London Retired Police Dogs Trust is to ensure that the dogs get the retirement that they deserve. We provide support for medical care and treatment, meaning their owners are not left with an agonising decision to make about the animals future due to financial concerns. It’s our way of saying ‘thank you’ for their unconditional service to our communities.

About This Cause

London Retired Police Dogs Trust (LRPD) was set up in 2019 to support the retired police dogs of London with their welfare needs. Once retired, the responsibility of the dog falls to their handler who has an unbreakable bond with the animal. Some retired police dogs are rehomed to an adopted family who again, take on the responsibility of the dog. Retiring police dogs do not receive a pension to support them through their ageing years, which means people who take on retired police dogs receive no financial support in a time in a dog’s life where, after a lengthy time on ‘the beat’, vets bills are inevitable and expensive. Due to the nature of the work that our courageous dogs perform it is extremely difficult to insure them which means care and treatment costs can soon mount up. We also now support retired service dogs from London Fire Brigade, Fire Investigation dogs play a vital role within the fire service and deserve support in their retirement like any other service animal.
