Manchester and Cheshire Dogs' Home
Manchester and Cheshire Dogs’ Home is a registered animal charity which operates two dog shelters in North West England. The charity takes in and cares for stray and unwanted dogs, making the animals available for adoption once they are fit and healthy. The charity also promotes responsible dog ownership by the public.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Us )〕 Manchester Dogs’ Home has cared for and rehomed more than one million dogs since it opened.
==History==
The charity was initially founded as Manchester & District Home for Lost Dogs in 1893 by a group of Manchester businessmen who were concerned about the amount of stray dogs which roamed the city.〔 The overcrowded environment of the city at the height of the Industrial Revolution led to the suffering of dogs, and inspired councillors A.H Megson and Herbert Phillips to open a home for lost dogs in Stretford. The shelter moved to its current home in Harpurhey in 1897 when the lease on the Stretford site expired.
The Dogs Act 1906 saw regulations of the Watch Committee of the Manchester Corporation come into force, requiring every dog on the public highway or in a public place to wear a collar listing its owner’s name and address. The animals without were to be sent to the dogs’ home.〔
The shelter initially housed accommodation for over 150 dogs and at peak times more than 100 animals could be brought in each week. Stray dogs were only kept for one week, and if no one claimed them, they would be painlessly destroyed. Those of a better breed would be kept for longer in the hope they would be rehomed.〔
