Emmerdale - Dog's Trust: Freedom Project
Freedom is our dog fostering service offering support for people escaping domestic abuse.
Freedom provides free and confidential temporary care for dogs, enabling owners fleeing domestic abuse to access a refuge without the fear of what may happen to their dog if left behind.
The project now runs in Greater London and south-east England, East Anglia, Yorkshire, north-east and north-west England, Scotland and Wales.
How does Freedom help?
Many refuges can’t accept pets, meaning in many cases people experiencing domestic abuse can’t leave their home until they know their dog is somewhere safe.
Dogs within the project are cared for in the loving home of a volunteer foster carer until their owners can be safely reunited with them.
