Lynne went on to explain that Cora Bailey, founder of Claw, does not only help the animals they rescue, but also the people in the area that are in need, therefore any items are welcome and the organisation is always appreciative of those willing to help as there are always people in need whether it’s clothes, bed linen or food as nothing gets wasted.

She explained that they use about four bags of dog food per day. She also mentioned chickens are a big necessity as they make chicken and rice for sick dogs especially those with stomach issues. For the dogs that have been poisoned, they then feed them broth, as it has all the nutrients from the bones and the meat.
