If I came into a large amount of money I would open a santuary for animals. I would realy love to help misstreated and unwanted animals but see no way without having money behined me.
In all honesty this is the reason why I do the lottery.

I've also said "If I ever come into the money where I can own plenty of land I will happily take on rescues while new homes are found"

I have a friend who we have started taking to the shows and her aim in life is to a open a sactury for dogs and horses.  If possible I will be behind her all the way!

Sharon arn't you nice, you could still help even having no money. Why don't you contact your nearest animal shelter and give a little bit of your time free, i used to do this before i had children, and it is very rewarding.

And only if we did have the money, our dream - nice cottage, lots of land, running rescue centre specialising in Border Collies.. I've seen too many ruined by kennels and supposedly well meaning people.

We achieved this dream without a lottery win we searched the ads for farmhouses to let we even ran an ad in farmers guardian for a year on and off eventually I had a call from a friend saying she had seen this place and to act quickly which we did with the  funds we had raised over the years  we put up five large  kennels  and runs I know its not a lot but with being lab rescue we rarely have more than five or six in at a time we worked hard on the kennels we had the highest quality that we could afford and bought the runs from dog world ads and sam covered them all we put heating in an lined them they dont have bowls of water they have galvanised or stainless steel buckets as labs love lots of water Sam made some special steel holders for the buckets at work  they have toys to play with and vet bed to sleep on in their beds we have some lovely supporters and have had more support since we came here :)
Every day I pinch myself to make sure this isnt a dream,the dogs are happy with us and its nice for people to come and spend time with the dogs before they adopt them. It was a big gamble as we gave up our home to come here and it could come to an end but if I died tommorow Ive achived my biggest dream.
I still dream of a lottery win but would just do the same but on a bigger scale.
