StructureThe charity takes its name from its founder Keith Smith, who remains the chairman of a board of nine trustees who normally meet four times a year and are assisted by an honorary secretary and many volunteers.[2] The funds raised by the charity at a variety of fund-raising events and through its shops in Skegness and the nearby market town of Spilsby are used solely for the benefit of the dogs in its care. None of the charity's representatives is paid. FunctionIt exists to care for and re-home abandoned dogs and to educate the public on the correct treatment of dogs. It was formed in January 2000 but did not acquire official charity status until 2002.[3] Around 70 dogs can be cared for by the charity at any one time, in boarding kennels and foster homes in and around Skegness. Toward the end of 2008 the economic situation led to an increase in the numbers of people wanting to get rid of their dogs, making its task an even more difficult one. The charity previously had a mascot, Dave the Dog,[4] who frequently popped up at its fundraising events. He was 7ft tall is described by the charity as 'some kind of Great Dane/Irish Wolfhound crossbreed', although it is far more likely that he was really a volunteer in a dog suit.
