About Us

The name comes from a much beloved dog, called Tesa – rescued as a stray in a dreadful condition, she blossomed into the most amazing sweetest dog. Her extraordinarily friendly and kind nature despite her rough start in life inspired the creation of Tesa’s Rescue, which is a charity that aims to help animals and people. Tesa’s Rescue mission is to support the local community by offering medical assistance to animals in need of emergency / life saving surgeries / treatments, at the same time helping their kind owners on low income cover these veterinary bills when medical costs become overwhelming.

Many families on low income face the heart breaking possibility of rehoming their beloved pets when unexpected vet costs arise, Tesa’s Rescue hopes to ease these burdens, save lives and keep pets where they belong – with the families who love them. We have developed fantastic relationships with the local vets and liaise directly with local clinics, therefore payments go straight into vet accounts. Where possible, Tesa’s Rescue also fosters and rehomes cats in need of help, who have been surrendered, abandoned and have nobody to look after them. We run solely on donations received from the kindness of members of the public and for this reason any form of help is greatly appreciated.
