Our Story
 

DMT DRSG started off as a little group on facebook after our founder Lesley's own experience adopting Grace, a dachshund rescued from a meat truck in August 2018. A true example that fairytales do happen. Lesley felt inspired to rescue as many dachshunds as possible from this horrific trade, and as such DMT Dachshund Rescue & Support Group was born on 12th May 2020.

We have grown exponentially since then and have overcome many challenges along the way. We registered as an official charity in September 2021. We (along with our loyal supporters and fantastic rescue partners) have managed to save the lives of over 200 dachshunds.

 

Inspired by Grace’s story and our motto of "No Dachshund Left Behind", our team of dedicated volunteers continue to work to rescue as many dachshunds as possible from horrific circumstances, with the hope of giving each dog a happy ending.
