Wagg has a history of providing sponsorship and/or support to worthy causes. It is important to us, as a family owned business, that we give something back to all our customers and supporters in some small way.
For the last 7 years we have been sponsoring the Trossachs Search and Rescue Team by providing food for their dogs on a monthly basis, coat badges for dogs and handlers, Polo Shirts and Fleeces for handlers, as well as banners and leaflets for use at promotional events they attend.
The Team regularly assist in searches for missing people in remote rural areas as well as in buildings. Their “rescue” stories are many and varied!
Recently they have formed a close link with Strathclyde Fire and Rescue Service, and in this respect the dogs are used for helping to locate missing persons in fire damaged buildings.
Over the last 8 or 9 years Wagg has also sponsored a team of Fire Investigation Search Dogs, trained by Clive Gregory. The dogs and handlers are trained to very high specifications and are used in arson investigations in fire damaged buildings. There are now specialist Fire Dogs located in all parts of the UK.
As well as sponsoring particular dog groups, Wagg regularly sponsors local dog shows and events. In 2006 we have sponsored prizes for some 153 shows and would expect to repeat this going forward. Shows that you might have seen us sponsoring an event or particular animal category include:
