Become a Companion

Every year, Edinburgh Dog and Home gives hundreds of lost, stray and abandoned pets a second chance at life. The journey to a loving forever home can involve many months, or years, of veterinary treatment, food, shelter, enrichment activities, and loving care from our dedicated staff. With our costs amounting to nearly £2.7 million a year, and without any government or statutory funding, the support of our Companions helps us meet the vital needs of our animals and plan ahead with confidence.
