Unfortunately we often see dogs with behaviour problems that have escalated to the point where their owners feel they can no longer cope due to problems with the dog itself, and so the dog is brought to us.
With the right help and advice, many of these problems could have been prevented, and these dogs could have been shown the ‘right’ way to behave. Often a little patience, guidance and training is all that is required, so we’ve attached some links and information that may help before you feel that re-homing is your only option.
Inspiration for Tyco’s Treats came after a three-legged Lurcher called Tyco came to live with Neil and Tracy from Wood Green in July 2010.
Tyco loved treats but most of them upset his tummy, so they set about making their own using only natural ingredients and leaving out all the dodgy preservatives and other additives.
The treats were a success with Tyco and so Tyco’s Treats was born! Since then they have constantly supported Wellidog with donations for raffle prizes and auctions to help us raise funds, and all of our dog shows.
Thank you to Neil, Tracy and of course… Our honorary Wellidog Tyco 🙂

A few days ago we was asked if we could help one of 4 extremely malnourished pups. Not one of us expected to see such forgiving dear little souls on the brink of complete starvation! Many tears have been shed but now with the help and support of 5 different rescues these boys have a much happier future ahead.
Pablo – One of four horrifically malnourished puppies rescued
Reds Rescue is currently caring for Pablo, a little boy of approx 9mths old weighing only 6kg! Pablo is quite poorly but he has every chance in the care of Red’s. Once fit and healthy he will be going to Nearly Home Crusaders for re homing.
Roman – One of four horrifically malnourished puppies rescued
Animals in Need are caring for Roman, a very sweet boy weighing 6.9kg. He will do very well in the care of Annie and will be looking for a home once he fighting fit, neutered and vaccinated.
Hugo – One of four horrifically malnourished puppies rescued
Here at Wellidog we are caring for Hugo and Buttons. Both boys are in separate foster homes getting the very best care and love. Hugo weighs 6.3kg and Buttons a tiny 5.9kg, the smallest of the 4.

“Friends, we have something wonderful to tell you…
You may recall that earlier this month Geri started the process of raising funds to buy us an animal ambulance via Gofundme, and we anticipated that this would happen in early Autumn. Meantime, our wonderful friends at AMS Wellingborough, who support us in so many ways, have donated a van to us! And have undertaken to sponsor it in the future! So, we have stopped the fundraising now, and will use the money so kindly donated by friends and supporters to fit out the van with crates, a ventilation system, and to pay the insurance. We hope that you are all happy for us and how we will use the funds already raised. If not, please let us know and we will refund your donation. This was most unexpected and so greatly appreciated! We are obviously very grateful to the dear boys at AMS, not just for this, but for their continued support. To all those that have donated, many many thanks – the van will be such an asset to our Charity and our dogs x
WE SHALL BE TRANSFERRING THE MONEY TO COVER THE COST OF THE ABOVE, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE RUNNING COSTS YOU CAN DO SO VIA PAYPAL wellidog@talktalk.net THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR GENEROSITY AND SPECIAL THANKS TO THE AMS TEAM FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE SO SOON 🙂 “

At the weekend Ex Wellidog Hector achieved his Flyball Dog Intermediate title (1,000 points). What an amazing achievement for Mandy and Hector!
We are all so proud of how hard they have worked. What a team they make!
For those who are not aware of Hector’s story, he was found tied to a bench and abandoned in a local park. Mandy took him on after he had served his time in stray block and just look at him now!
Wellidog would like to say Congratulations, and a HUGE thank you to Rob and Zoe who competed in the IRON RUN challenge in aid of Wellingborough Dog Welfare.
They raised over £300 and would like the money to go towards our ‘WELLIDOG VAN’ Appeal!
Well Done to both of you and thank you from all at Wellidogs for your continued support

After 16 months in kennels it is finally Arwin’s time to leave!
He arrived broken and beaten and has come a very long way since becoming a Wellidog. He has turned out to be a very loving loyal boy, who adores to play fetch and have kisses and cuddles along with a morning cup of tea!
He will now be enjoying life by the sea with his new mummy and daddy 🙂
Good luck Arwin. It couldn’t have happened to a nicer dog ❤
We would like to say a huge thank you to Croyland Primary School for allowing Wellidog representatives and Elmo, our Wellidog ambassador, to visit their school.
On 18th September 2014 we went to visit them and give year 3 pupils a talk about our work and animal welfare. The children were all very well behaved and keen to take part in the discussions.
A special thanks to Mrs Tina Smith for organizing and requesting our visit.
Thank you also to the children, staff and parents/carers for collecting and handing in donations for our wonderful woofers 🙂
