More information about Friends of the Pound (Friends of the Pound (Tweed, Inc))

Friends of the Pound Tweed Inc. was founded in May 2000 due to public concern for the many animals who generally, through no fault of their own, were being destroyed at Tweed Shire Council Pound. Our volunteers provide assistance at the pound as well as caring for the animals with feeding, grooming, exercising and giving comfort to those that are traumatised by the experience. We also rescue some of the many animals that are due to be destroyed at the pound and place them into temporary foster care until a suitable home can be found. We are a non-profit charitable organisation, dependent solely on donations and the fund-raising efforts of our volunteers. Our primary purposes are to re-home abandoned animals and to improve conditions at the Pound. We also promote the importance of responsible pet ownership and slowly, but surely, hope to lessen the increasing number of homeless animals, particularly through encouraging the desexing of animals to reduce the appalling numbers of unwanted pets. There is always a never ending supply of inmates at the Tweed Shire Council Pound - from puppies and kittens to older dogs and cats, all with their own special story. Many have been found roaming the streets, while others have been surrendered by their former owners. Friends of the Pound also rescue dogs and cats from the Pound when their time is up to save them from being destroyed. These animals are placed with foster carers until suitable homes can be found. By adopting a pound pet you will be rewarded with unconditional love and lifelong devotion and you will also be saving a life. Friends of the Pound also formed the Friends of the Hound Greyhound Adoption Group to help save just some of the thousands of healthygreyhounds that are destroyed each year when they are no longer required for Greyhound Racing.
