Aim

Rescue a pot cake puppy from St Lucia to its forever home in the UK.


We are trying to rescue one of these gorgeous Potcake puppies and bring him to the UK to live with us. She's just 8 weeks old and a Potcake street dog from St. Lucia. 

The potcake dog is a mixed-breed dog type found on several Caribbean islands. Its name comes from the congealed peas and rice mixture that local residents traditionally eat, as the overcooked rice that cakes to the bottom of the pot would be fed to the dogs.


Potcakes are extremely loyal, loving and clever dogs sadly the authorities regularly round them up and put them to sleep. The strays have a life expectancy of only 3 years.

These pups were found early one morning on 15th Feb by a man walking to work. He noticed a dog at the side of the road! He went to check on her and sadly she had been hit by a car and had past away!???? He noticed nearby some squeaking noises and went to look. Here he discovered five very tiny puppies who were infested with mange, fleas and worms! And they would have starved to death had he not found them! He called the lady who he worked for as he knew she loved dogs and would know what to do.


Luckily the puppies were found a foster home! Where these puppies come from there are lots of stray dogs living on the streets, who are starving, ill treated and in need of medical help! These puppies need to be rescued!!! They need to fly to a safe to the UK when they are old enough and they will need loving families. We want to be one of those loving families but it’s very expensive to get them to the UK and we need your help!

Please donate even if it's just the price of a coffee! It can make a massive difference! We don’t want these pups to have the same fate as their mummy! Please help if you can.
Thank you from Poly & Pete
