Hello, my name is Genevieve.

For more than 25 years I have worked as a research and development chef in some of the most extraordinary Michelin-starred kitchens of our time, collaborating on culinary concepts with some of the world’s most respected chefs.

This rescue journey was never planned. While working in Taiwan, I encountered a Formosan Mountain Dog named Namaya in severe distress. She was heavily pregnant, and in that moment I became her carer. Shortly after, she gave birth to nine puppies.

What began as an act of compassion quickly became a life-changing responsibility. I could not leave these innocent dogs behind, so I committed to bringing them to safety and building a future for them.

Today, we are working toward creating a forever sanctuary for the ten dogs here in the UK. It is a challenging road, and like many rescue stories, it began without preparation or a clear plan. But the goal remains simple: to keep these dogs safe, healthy, loved, and together.

We are currently based near Sandringham in Norfolk while we search for a permanent home where this sanctuary can grow.

If you have experience in animal rescue, know of land or property in Norfolk that could support a sanctuary, or would like to help in any way, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
