Tyrone Husky Rescue

Registered

Charity no. 109556 Date registered. 16/05/2023

Public benefits

[What are the direct benefits flowing from your organisation's purposes?] The organisation will rescue and rehome stray or abandoned dogs - particularly huskies. This will give the public the opportunity to rescue an animal and give it a new home. The educational work of the organisation helps those who already own huskies to understand the breed

and benefit from keeping them. Also those families who are considering keeping a husky dog as a pet. It will also educate the general public on the correct treatment of animals - especially this breed of dog. . The benefits from a companion animal for heath and well being are well recognised [How can the benefits identified above be demonstrated?] The evidence of this will be seen in a reduced number of husky dogs destroyed in council pounds in Northern Ireland. Also reduced number of complaints to councils regarding this breed if they owners understand how to care for them properly. The local councils responsible for animal welfare will have their costs reduced and this will have a commensurate affect on the rates. This will therefore benefit ratepayers. Exercising a pet and caring for it will improve both physical and mental health of the owners and therefore benefit society and the tax payers. [Is there any harm arising from any of the purposes?] none [Who are the charity's beneficiaries?] The general public who adopt companion dog from the charity; the local councils who have a reduced number of complaints to deal with and a reduced number of mistreated dogs to look after; the ratepayers benefiting from reduced costs for their council and therefore potentially lower rates. [Is there any private benefit flowing from any of the purposes? Is it incidental and necessary?] none

What your organisation does

Purposes are carried out by rescuing abandoned, unwanted or abused dogs - particularly Huskies . These animals are rehabilitated and then rehomed via the charity. Huskies are a particularly challenging breed, prone to being neglected by owners who do not understand what they require to live successfully in a domestic environment. The charity

therefore focusses on the potential owners and their education as well as the dogs. Attendance at fundraising events, interaction with the general public, work on social media - all contribute to the education of the general public in animal welfare issues and husky dogs in particular.
