Launched in 2018 to show commitment to ongoing charitable giving, the Dorwest Foundation helps dogs and cats that are in need of care, health and quality of life improvement as well as supporting dogs that are trained to help humans either in an assistance, rescue or medical capacity.

Dorwest donates to established animal welfare charities on an annual basis through the sales of special Foundation products, Keeper’s Mix® & Keeper’s Mix® Sensitive, with 10% of profit from every sale donated.

This year, Dorwest Herbs has donated £6,000 to charities to support five more amazing charities, including:

Dorset Search Dogs - Dedicated team of handlers, dogs and operational supports assisting the Police, Coastguard and other Search and Rescue teams look for missing persons across the South, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Lucky’s Legacy Rescue - UK based volunteers working closely with several animal rescues and shelters across Romania with the commitment to rescue as many dogs from the streets as possible and rehome them into the UK with loving families.

Dogs On The Streets (DOTS) - Voluntary ran and not-for-profit charity dedicated to the welfare of dogs belonging to the UK’s homeless community including:, essential items, training, fostering and mobile veterinary surgery.

Forever Hounds Trust - Rescue and care for unwanted, abused or abandoned greyhounds, lurchers and other sighthounds in any part of the country, with the mission of finding loving permanent homes for all hounds.

The Cinnamon Trust - Specialist national charity which seeks to relieve the anxieties and problems faced by elderly and terminally ill people and their pets, made up of a national network of community service volunteers.

In previous years the Dorwest Foundation has donated to various charitable causes, through funding, vouchers and products at dog shows and other events, including buying life-saving equipment for animals at local fire stations.

Jo Boughton-White, Dorwest MD comments: “Every day brings new challenges to charities, especially in the last few unprecedented years. This cash makes a real difference and I want to thank each and every one of our customers who have contributed. We hope to help even more dogs and cats going forward, and we send a huge thank you to all those who work in the charities for their endless care.”
