Meet ex Wellidog Dexter, lending a paw to Marboo Dogz on a TV set with the cast filming ?????? Shhhhh, we can’t say, but as soon as we can we’ll tell you – Top Secret 😉
If we didn’t know any better we’d believe he was a real police dog! But instead, this is Dexter… who was rescued by Wellidog, and adopted and loved by Linda and Kyra… Who was in a sorry state, quite poorly, skin and bones, and scared of everything (especially other dogs, and even the sound of water going under the drain on the street) 😦 But look at him now!! Isn’t he just a super handsome boy standing tall and proud with other stunning GSD’s (and some quite cute Actors dressed as Policemen too 😉 )
Go Dexter!! ❤ We’re So Proud of You Handsome Boy…
Hogan’s Hampers are a local company based in St. James Mill Road, Northampton. They have kindly donated their beautiful hampers as prizes for the Best in Show and Reserve in Show at our show at Grendon Lakes on 26th June.
Their beautiful hampers may very well be prizes in future events so keep an eye out for our Companion Dog Shows throughout the year.
WILL had some very special visitors from the BBC, including Dr Kendal Shepherd!
She believes that with three simple rules you can gain control of your four-legged friend… Just watch how she got him to lay down for a belly rub within less than an hour of meeting him 🙂
This boy deserves a loving home as much as any other dog… Watch his TV debut and you’ll see that his bark was definitely much louder than his bite 😉
There’s nothing better than a little paddle in the Ocean on a summers day… That is unless you are the lovely Jessie 😉 Will had a FANTASTIC time getting his pawsies wet, but Jessie was having none of that! …although she did have a lovely time just watching the sea at Hunstanton and relaxing away from Kennels for the day ❤
Will on the other hand absolutely LOVED paddling in the sea… And Ice-Cream! Can you believe that Jessie doesn’t like Ice-Cream? No, neither could we… But their lovely caretakers Josh and Charli did, so nothing went to waste… And what trip to the seaside would be complete without Fish & Chips, which went down well with all of them! …even Lady Jessie 🙂
Our hearts were just bursting seeing these two get out of the kennels for the day and experiencing life ❤ Hopefully one day, they will both meet their special ‘someone’ who will want to share experiences just like this with them…
Look at them… They absolutely loved it ❤ ❤ ❤
Many of you may have met OLLIE who is a very handsome Estrellas Mountain Dog, and honorary Wellidog and Fundraising mascot? If you haven’t had the pleasure of cuddling this gorgeous boy yet, he is often spotted winning hearts and sniffing out loving homes for his Wellidog friends with his hardworking and dedicated Mum, Linda (our very own Christmas Cracker) around the county.
On Tuesday (12th April) Linda, Julie and Zena took Ollie to Barclaycard where he got to hang out with one of his football heroes; Cobblers player Paul Corry! He’s been impressed ever since and loving the good weather as he can brush up his ball skills just in case he’s invited again 😉
We cannot thank Barclaycard enough for everything they do to support us. They made us feel extremely welcome and provided us with our own stand for the day. We managed to raise £113.60 which will go towards helping our deserving and very special Valerie, and the costs of her ear operations 🙂 We had such a lovely time and met some equally lovely people.
Thank you for your ongoing kindness, support and hospitality 🙂
With Love and Licks from Ollie and his PR Team; Linda, Julie and Zena ❤
we very rarely foster our dogs out, only if they need a major operation or are really not coping in kennels. however there are times like when a dog suddenly needs an operation where we are in desperate need of one. we like them to be short term fosters if we can :).
Fostering is extremely rewarding for both you and the dog. You can help them adjust to a loving home environment and provide basic training ready for them to move on to their forever home.
If you’re thinking about fostering a dog for us you would need to come along to kennels and meet us and our dogs first.
The next step would be a home check by us to make sure that your home is safe and does not pose any risks to your chosen dog. Please don’t be worried about this, but at this stage we know the dogs better than you and can identify any potential risks. Our aim is to keep both our dogs and your family safe, and once you have passed you are welcome to foster a suitable dog.
We will provide food, bedding etc and any help that may be needed until the dog has found their forever home.
You will be expected to keep the Kennel Manager or fellow fosters up-to-date with the dog’s progress. You will also be required to help advertise the dog and help find him/her a suitable home, which will include allowing potential adopters to meet your foster pup at a mutually convenient time.
Fostering can be an emotional roller coaster, but it’s always extremely rewarding when our much loved dogs finally settle into the perfect family and get the love they very much deserve!
We wanted to share with you these comments from our current Foster Mums and Dads…
“We love fostering dogs, seeing them come in from the stray block or handed over because they’re unwanted, and watching their little characters develop. You get to see the change from when they come in to when they leave. Each and every one has different characteristics which makes them special, and so lovable!! It’s a really enjoyable thing to do and it gives the dogs and second chance to be happy!!”
“Fostering allows me to do a more in depth assessment in a home environment and social setting, enforce basic training, manners and ensure that the dog is house trained and settled; improving the dogs chances of a forever home, and any issues that arise can be worked on effectively. It also means that we can suitably match a dog and his/her new home accurately. It is very rewarding and can also be very challenging, but to see the improvements and willingness of the dog, and to see the dog happy in a forever home makes it all worthwhile.”
“Fostering gives the dogs a chance to learn trust, love and boundaries and helps them see that life isn’t too scary. As a fosterer it’s good to know that for a short while you are making a difference to these confused pooches, and you are helping them prepare for their forever homes; giving them the best chance for a happy, secure future.”

If that’s four Yes’s then you’ve come to the right place! 🙂
Wellidogs would not exist without the dedication and kindness of its supporters and regular volunteers, and volunteering can be a very rewarding experience as well as a way to meet new friends.
At Wellidog we’re more like a big family who pull together to make a difference to some very deserving furbabies who have found themselves here through no fault of their own.
There are many ways that you can help…
A love of dogs is a MUST if you want to volunteer, so if you do, and helping us is something you’re considering, why don’t you contact us so that we can have a chat about it…
We can’t pay you, but we can promise you that the feeling you get when you see a dog(s) that you’ve worked with, and grown to love go on to find a loving new home, is priceless ❤
So, if you’re still thinking about volunteering we look forward to hearing from you soon.
When it comes to fund-raising we quite simply have THE BEST supporters 🙂
Gemma and Jon successfully competed in the Iron Run at the weekend, and finished with (thankfully) no injuries other than a few scrapes and bruises 🙂 and their magnificent effort means they have managed to raise a whopping £535 for Wellidog!
THANK YOU SO MUCH GEMMA AND JON ❤ …AND THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SPONSORED THEM ❤
But… For anyone who is wondering why anyone would be crazy enough to put themselves through it, their inspiration is this gorgeous fella here…
Meet Billy, an ex-Wellidog who went to live with Gemma and Jon temporarily, and never left 🙂
In Gemma’s own words…
“He was so poorly when he was at Wellidog, and scared. Naomi did an amazing job with him and she thought he was going to die. I’d been walking him and I couldn’t leave him – so we fostered him, and the rest is history! Failed fosters!”
We do love our failed foster parents 😉
They have since gone on to foster two other dogs who have been placed with lovely families, and continue to support Wellidog on a daily basis.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT FOR WELLIDOG, AND CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR AMAZING ACHIEVEMENT! ❤
Anyone who had the privilege of meeting the delightful DECLAN will be pleased to know that he has found an absolutely fantastic forever home with Iain, Tracy and Zippy 🙂
We think he fell on his feet here as Tracy is a Canine Hydrotherapist at Moulton College! Anyone who has seen Declan’s videos will know how much he loves water… So maybe fate brought them together 😉
Declan left Wellidog on Saturday and is settling in nicely with his new family. They are getting on amazingly well, with Declan and Zippy even enjoy snuggling on the sofa together! …. All together now… “Awwwwwww” 🙂
Good luck in your new home Declan… You’ll be missed ❤
SPARKLE left Wellidog a few days ago and is now settled in her new home 🙂
Her new family had this to say…
“Sparkle is very happy with her new home Sarah and Garry said thank you for such a lovely girl”
Look how happy and relaxed she looks 🙂
Thank you for giving our beautiful girl such a lovely home ❤
Great news everybody… Dakota has left Wellidog today to start a lovely new life in Lincoln with Stan and Scott. This beautiful girl will now know how it feels to be safe and loved…
Thanks to Julie and Joshua and Smith, and Linda Tirebuck for working so hard to find her a home of her own 🙂
Good luck Dakota! We think she looks as happy about it as we are… ❤
We are extremely lucky to have Barclaycard join us on occasion to do anything from dog walking to weeding, or even decorating!
They are and have always been extremely generous and no job is too small… or too big!
Employees at Barclaycard are able to select a local charity or community project that they wish to help with, and luckily for us they often pick Wellidog 🙂
It’s with thanks to loyal supporters like you we can continue to do the work we do…and why our office looks like new 😉
Thank you to everyone at Barclaycard who continue to help us. It really is very much appreciated ❤
Well, it’s official… MEYER HAS A NEW HOME 🙂
Adoption was completed last night, and although her old family and foster Dad are feeling quite sad, they are also very happy that she has found a lovely new home…
Good luck Meyer from everyone at Wellidog ❤
And thank you to everyone who shared her story and helped find her a new home 🙂
