The Wickham Canine Rehabilitation Centre is proud to support StreetVet, The Labrador Lifeline Trust and Canine Partners

StreetVet are a registered charity providing free accessible veterinary care to the pets of people experiencing homelessness.

StreetVet started as two vets and a backpack of medical supplies on the streets of London in 2016 and now have 17 outreach locations across the UK with over 400 vet/vet nurse volunteers providing StreetVet services. They deliver free preventative and reactive veterinary care, procedures such as simple diagnostic tests, flea and worming treatment, education and daily essentials such as food, treats and other pet equipment.

Anything that can be done in a veterinary consulting room StreetVet can do on the streets, this includes blood testing, sampling lumps, dispensing medication, and microchipping.

The Labrador Lifeline Trust is a charity dedicated to rescuing, rehoming and helping Labradors. They are now in their sixteenth year of helping Labradors in need of new homes and their main priority is placing the right dog in the right home. They cover the areas of Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, New Forest, Hertfordshire, Newark and Trent, Parts of Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, Surrey and West Sussex. They are a Labrador Rescue very dedicated to their cause.

The Labrador Lifeline Trust is a registered Charity (number 1076061) operating throughout the UK. They are a Kennel Club Accredited Breed Rescue and are required to maintain high standards in breed welfare.

They do not use outside home checkers because they like to know their families and what sort of dog would suit them and their lifestyle. That way they know that they get the right dog in the right home. All their helpers have regular training on how to assess dogs and homes correctly. Once they place a dog they maintain contact with the home and are always available to give help and support should it be necessary.

In the majority of cases they know the full history of the dog which includes veterinary history and all this information is passed on to a new home. It is not in the interests of the dog or the new home to withhold any information. Where they do not have the full history they will not rehome where there are children under 14 or visiting grandchildren.

They never turn a dog away through illness, age or infirmity.
