In January 2010 we were very pleased to gain charity status. As a small centre we
do not have monetary reserves to draw on for upgrading and expanding the wildlife
facility. Our charity shop in Lancaster is proving very popular and the income generated
is being used carefully and wisely.
We have the support of our local vets, and the dedication, enthusiasm, knowledge
and experience, to move forward. Wolfwood draws on qualified training and eleven
years experience of rehoming a wide range of animals, and 21 years equine experience.
We have a good working relationship with our local Dog Wardens, Vets, the Police,
Dog Behaviourists, Dog Pounds and Animal/Wildlife Rescue Centres in various parts
of the country.
Wolfwood receives no funding; any help towards the large monthly vet bill is hugely
valued, click here for further information.
Thank you for taking the time to read about us.
Wolfwood was founded in early 2007, initially to meet the need of rehoming rescued and unwanted dogs in the local area. We soon realised that there was no local centre for injured and displaced wildlife, casualties were being put to sleep, and so our work began, and is constantly expanding. We take on any challenge; caring for the injured until they can be safely released. We have a good working relationship with local vets and RSPCA Officers; some of our dogs and wildlife are from a wide catchment area.
We are a very small, family - run rescue and frequently have a large number of dogs needing new homes. Plenty of advice and support are part of our personal and friendly service. We work on a one to one basis and tailor each individual dogs needs to prospective new owners. Some are easily homed, while others require significant commitment from new owners and take extra visits and time together before we are happy to let them go. The dogs are all wormed, fully vaccinated, neutered (if old enough), routinely treated for fleas and Identi-chipped. A contribution towards covering this cost is greatly appreciated.
