Max

A little over two years ago we got Max our dog from Allsorts Dog Rescue. He and his entire litter were abandoned in a rubbish chute and were brought in to Allsorts. Since we picked him up he has become a real part of the family, in fact I can’t remember what life was like before Max arrived and I certainly can’t imagine life without him. He is a constant source of amusement, love and companionship. I will always be grateful to Allsorts for introducing us to Max.

 

Allsorts was primarily setup to find homes for unwanted, unloved and abandoned dogs in Sussex. Many of the dogs are strays that have been picked up by various local councils and passed onto Allsorts for re-homing. In some cases they take dogs that are 24 hours or less away from being destroyed. Allsorts Dog Rescue also re-home dogs for people that contact us directly with a problem. This is usually a relationship breakdown, a death in the family or serious illness.

More information, including details and photos of all the dogs they currently have for adoption are available on their website http://www.allsortsdogrescue.org.uk/ They also regularly post updates on their face book page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Allsorts-Dog-Rescue/203335446415353

 

Although I said I would not do another one here I am training for another marathon!

The Greensand Marathon is run over the beautiful Surrey hills around Dorking. Setting off at 10 am on Sunday the 13th October with my fellow runners I hope to complete the course in a good time and raise money for my chosen non profit Allsorts Dog Rescue.

Allsorts are not a registered charity so do not get the benefits of gift aid so please give genorusly!

I survived!

I survived...despite the best efforts of the course and the horrendous weather. It was a very tough course and with the bad conditions easily the hardest race I've run. I'm very glad I met Ben Godbold an inspirational young chap running 52 marathons in 52 weeks! We ended up running pretty
