THE CHAINED DOG PROJECT 

As well as hands on rescue, Little Angels Rescue BG also work hard for the betterment of the owned dogs that are kept on chains. The term ‘Doorbell Dogs’ was coined by Candy a few years ago when LAR was running as Colonel Angels and that is exactly what they are, dogs kept on chains to bark if someone comes, thus acting literally as a ‘Doorbell’.

Many of these dogs are owned by people who are very poor and don’t know any better.

They live in regions where the Internet is foreign and where they work the land to seek out an existence.

What they do is due to ignorance and lack of knowledge and because it has always been done that way not through any deliberate malice or cruelty with regard to the dogs they have.
 

Through our Chained Dog Project we aim to make the lives of these dogs better by providing adequate kennels and long chains or ‘running lines’ which will give the dogs, not only a greater freedom, but allow them movement to ‘do their business’ away from where they sleep and to keep them warm and dry in the Winter and cool in the Summer.

Alongside that we are also working to educate these owners as to best practices of dog ownership so they can become more aware of dogs as living creatures with feelings and so that there is hope for the future generations of the families we are helping.
 

The chained dog project will be updated regularly with the stories of those dogs whose lives we have helped improve.
