PADS is the People And Dogs Society, is a registered charity (non profit organisation). Until her recent death, our President was well known author and dog behaviourist Joyce Stranger. Our new President will be announced soon.
We aim to improve life for dogs by helping owners with problems and promoting responsible dog ownership. PADS is run entirely by volunteers and we fund our services through memberships, donations, and dog events and competitions.

PADS is a registered charity run entirely by volunteers in their spare time. We receive no outside help and we rely on donations from people just like you.  People who like what we do, and want to help us continue doing it.
PADS is a member of the Fundraising Standards Board so you can give with confidence. If you can make a donation, of any amount, please click the button. If you prefer to send your donation by post, this contact form gives you all the information you'll need.

Around 50,000 people a year turn to PADS for help with their dogs. Membership costs less than £1 per month and is one of the best ways to make sure we can continue to be there for them.

PADS' newsletter "Pawprints" goes out to all our members three times a year, in March, July and November.
It contains letters and news from our members, Paddy cartoons, details of all our competitions, activities and events, plus dog related articles, reviews and more.
