Burns Pet Nutrition launches support system for rescue pets

Burns Pet Nutrition has launched a support system for rescue pets and their new owners.

The Burns Pet Rescue initiative will see shelters supported by the company offer a bundle to new pet parents, containing some of the necessities new owners will need to start a new life with their rescue dog. They will receive 2kg of Burns food, a measuring cup, alongside access to top tips, video content, and training sessions from the Burns team of nutritionists.

John Burns, founder of Burns Pet Nutrition, said: “We’ve always believed that our pets need good nutrition, but we also know that every pet deserves a kind owner, a loving home, and plenty of head scratches along the way. That’s why we started our woofing great Burns Pet Rescue initiative, to help more pets find support in their new furever homes.”

The initiative has launched in the wake of a growing surge in abandoned puppies, following the huge increase in dog ownership over the past two years. Research shows that one in four new pet owners were considering getting rid of their dogs last year because of problems controlling them and rescue centres have since reported record numbers in admissions.
