Scores of dog lovers are now cmoing together to help under fire Bandeath Dog Shelter

Organiser Claire Graham plans to take her four-legged friends from the Underwood Lockhouse in Allandale to the Rosebank in Camelon on July 2. If you can help, email [email protected] for more information.

Due to withdrawal of funding from Clackmannanshire Council and Police Scotland, the future of the Throsk shelter hangs in the balance.

An action committee has been set up to campaign to save the shelter and Buddies of Bandeath, as it is known, is looking to register as a charitable organisation so it can also attract vital funds to help the shelter.
