THE Travel Lounge has finished its collection for the animal charity, Cheshire Dogs.

The travel agency has been taking donations of pet food and toys since early July and now after a great community effort, they have taken the donations to the charity.

Andrea Jones, from Travel Lounge, said: “We’re taking all of the items to the charity on Wednesday, September, 5.

“We get a lot of customers come in with their dogs and a few years ago we just decided to start doing these collections for Cheshire Dogs.

The collection drive has been successful and caught the Travel Team slightly off guard.

“We’ve collected so much we will have to take it down in a couple of trips but we think they will be delighted with how much we have collected.

Andrea said: “We’ve already been down with some of the items that have been donated and they were made up with us.

“We did receive a lot of bedding but unfortunately the charity does not take that due to the dogs chewing through the duvets.

“We will definitely be doing this again.”
