Recognition of Lisa Hosie’s Contribution to Dalmatian Welfare in Scotland

That the Parliament recognises the outstanding voluntary contribution of Lisa Hosie, of Fauldhouse, through Scottish Dalmatian Welfare; notes that the organisation publicly rehomed Dalmatians from 2009, became registered Scottish charity (SC042396) on 21 June 2011 and continued its work until 28 August 2025; understands that Lisa was instrumental in transforming the organisation from an informal welfare network into a registered charity and, alongside a small team of unpaid volunteers, helped rescue and rehome hundreds of Dalmatians throughout Scotland; acknowledges the charity’s careful, behaviour-led approach to assessment, rehabilitation and responsible home matching, including its strict non-destruction policy, and commends Lisa for her sustained and selfless service to animal welfare in Scotland.
