Causeway Coast Dog Rescue workers say they are delighted to have been chosen by B&Q staff in Coleraine for support.
Ash and Sandra from B&Q wanted to help their local animal welfare charity as they realised that so many dogs were being surrendered for rehoming as people come out of lockdown.

A spokesperson for CCDR said: “Ash has some great ideas on how she and her colleagues from B&Q can help the charity, and right now they are hosting a name the bear competition which runs until April.
“Anyone coming into the store can try their luck by naming the bear and any donations will go to the Causeway Coast Dog Rescue.”
Chair of the charity Maggie Dimsdale-Bobby said: “We support our local residents and community with their animal welfare needs, and it is brilliant to see how individuals and large businesses are supporting us in return.

We have been inundated with requests for support and will try our best to ensure each dog finds a forever home and gets to live their best life.”
