“During Scottish Animal Week we have opportunities to fundraise throughout the Glasgow area and we’d be really grateful if locals can get behind our appeal and help.
“Door-to-door fundraising can be carried out between Monday and Friday, while people can hold street collections on the Saturday.
“We encourage people to have a bit of fun and some of our past volunteers have dressed up in costumes or taken a canine friend along with them.
