\n
We will be holding a summer open day at our Aberdeenshire Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre for the first time since the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

Taking place on Saturday 12 August from 11am until 3pm, the open day will give members of the public the chance to meet the team at the centre, play fun games and meet a rescue pony named Lottie.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The event is also dog-friendly, with visitors encouraged to bring their canine companions along to join in the fun at the dog agility course or dog show.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Manager of the centre, Jacqueline McEwen, said, \u201cWe\u2019re so excited to welcome the public to our open day.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cThe event is ideal for anyone who would like to know more about the work we do in the local community or meet the team here at the centre. You can also enter your dog into our dog show with a chance to win first, second or third prize!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cBy taking part in our fundraising activities on the day you\u2019ll also be helping to fund the work of the centre so we can keep rescuing Aberdeenshire\u2019s animals like Lottie the pony.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cLottie came into our care in March due to her owners being unable to care for her anymore. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is still very young at only three years old. When Lottie arrived at the centre she was quite wary of humans but, since being at the centre, Lottie\u2019s personality has shone through! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is a very sweet, inquisitive girl who loves human attention. Lottie has a very cheeky side and loves running around and playing with her other pony friends and splashing around in her water!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cThe open day is a fantastic chance to celebrate success stories like Lottie, have some fun and raise some much-needed funds for Aberdeenshire\u2019s animals. We hope to see as many animal-lovers there as possible!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Anyone interested in attending the open day should head along to the Scottish SPCA Aberdeenshire Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre, Drumoak, Banchory, AB31 5AJ on 12 August between 11am and 3pm.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
