Lost Dogs Home takes major donation hit following year of bad publicity

The Lost Dogs Home needs help.

After a year of bad publicity, following controversial ‘kill-rate’ figures, the shelter has seen a massive decline in donations.

Kerry Thompson, who recently took over as CEO, told Tom Elliott the Lost Dogs Home had a deficit of $1.3 million.

She said donations had dropped around $700,000.

‘That’s huge for us,’ Ms Thompson explained on 3AW Drive.

‘I think the bad publicity really had an impact on those donations.’
