Care needed for dogs of domestic abuse victims
Available for over a year
The Dogs Trust says domestic abuse referrals have doubled in the past 5 years. The charity supports people fleeing domestic violence, by providing volunteers to take care of their dogs. Many victims of domestic abuse will stay with their abusive partners because they fear for their dog's safety. Stuart Whincup has been speaking to some of the staff at The Dogs Trust Darlington.
