About Us
Tracey Vickery founded Hampshire Hounds Dog Rescue in 2015.
"I am a dog owner, dog lover and dogs have consumed my life for many years. My very first 4 dogs were rescued, I have purchased 3 pedigree puppies and rescued another 3 who are pictured above. I have competed my dogs in working tests and they have qualified for Crufts. I have volunteered for rescues and various organisations, adopted, fostered and donated. I have witnessed puppy farming, helped investigations of dog fighting rings, reported Back Yard Breeders to HMRC, I've seen it all! My experience spans 25+ years."
Hampshire Hounds Dog Rescue is registered as CIO Charity. We are all volunteers.
More than 9,000 unwanted dogs were destroyed by councils across the country in 2015. Over 47,000 owners have abandoned their dogs in the past twelve months according to the annual Stray Dog Survey.
In 2016 there was a 21% decline in the number of stray dogs handled by Local Authorities in 2015-2016. However, over 37,000 lost and abandoned dogs remained unclaimed in local authority kennels.
Twelve dogs a day face destruction because forgetful owners haven't updated their dog's microchip details!
OUR AIM
We are employed and Hampshire Hounds Dog Rescue will never subsidise or replace our income.
February 2017 we gained charitable status. Registered Charity Number 1171772
Trustees are Irene Brinton, Chris Brinton, Tracey Vickery & Geoff Jarvis

OUR AIM
- We will reduce the number of dogs PTS in UK and Spanish pounds.
- We will make sure that no one feels ashamed that they can no longer give their dog the home and love he/she needs.
- We will work alongside owners to reduce the number of dogs advertised over the internet as FTGH.
- We will help rehome more dogs that would otherwise would be abandoned and become victims of the highway.
- We hope we never have to turn a dog away.
