Object:
2 The association's purposes are: (a) Our purpose; the advancement of animal welfare; our charity plays a pivotal role in preventing suffering and promoting relief to dogs in several meaningful ways. (b) How do we achieve this; • Timely Rescue: Lost dogs are vulnerable to injury, starvation, dehydration, and exposure to harsh weather. Trapping teams locate and safely capture these animals before they suffer further. • Avoiding Harmful Encounters: Dogs on the loose may encounter traffic, aggressive animals, or humans who may mistreat them. Reuniting minimizes these risks. • Reducing Stress and Fear: Many lost dogs are frightened and disoriented. Out trapping equipment and methods reduce the stress of being chased or cornered. • Reuniting Families: The emotional relief for both the dog and the owner upon reunion is profound. Dogs often suffer emotionally when separated from their families. • Providing Medical Attention: Once located, dogs can be assessed and treated for injuries or illnesses they may have sustained while lost. • Offering Shelter and Safety: If the owner cannot be found immediately, the team ensures the dog is placed in a safe environment, such as a foster home or shelter. • Educating the Public: These teams often raise awareness about pet safety, tracking devices, microchipping, and responsible ownership, helping prevent future incidents. (c) Where we operate; we offer our services to any owners who need support with reunited with their missing dogs, across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. (d) What support we need; we are made up of a small network of local volunteers within Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, who give up their own time freely to enable us to provide this service. We work as a team to be available and on hand as often as possible to support owners and lost dogs. Purchase of equipment to enable us to continue with our vital work is funded solely by the public's kind generosity and donations. Every single penny is gratefully appreciated by the team and is used solely for the purposes of operating the charity.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.
