Dogs Trust takes patriotic pawtraits to mark Jubilee
Dogs from the charity's rehoming centres posed with bunting and decorations to mark the occasion.
Charity celebrates its Patron's anniversary with pooch party.

Dogs Trust has been celebrating the Queen's Jubilee in style – by throwing a 'paw-ty' for its rescue dogs.

With bunting, cuddles and plenty of royal pawtraits taken of the dogs, the Dogs Trust rehoming centres have been celebrating the Jubilee, and hoping that the dogs' new snaps will attract loving new owners.

The pups enjoyed the fresh air and fun decorations, and patriotic pooches like Taz, Captain Oats, Edith and Winter struck their best poses for the camera, loving the extra attention. 

Popular charity Dogs Trust has plenty to celebrate over the Jubilee weekend, as the Queen is its Patron, and has been since 1990. 

Well known for her love of dogs, the charity hopes that more people will follow in Queen Elizabeth's footsteps and become dog lovers – giving dogs at the rehoming centres a new chance at life.

Pictures of the patriotic pups can be seen on the Dogs Trust website, along with more information on how to adopt them.

RCVS annual renewal fee for vets due

RCVS' annual renewal fee for veterinary surgeons is now due. Vets must pay their renewal fee before Wednesday, 1 April 2026.

This year's standard annual fee has increased to 431 from last year's 418. This is an approximately three per cent increase, as approved by RCVS Council and the Privy Council.

Tshidi Gardner, RCVS treasurer, said: "The small fee increase will be used to help deliver both our everyday activities and our new ambitious Strategic Plan, which includes aims such as achieving new legislation, reviewing the Codes of Professional Conduct and supporting guidance, and continuing to support the professions through activities such as the Mind Matters Initiative, RCVS Academy and career development."

A full breakdown of the new fees is on the RCVS website. Information about tax relief is available on the UK government website.
