To meet the challenge of further developing our Wildlife Rescue requires a significant
increase in regular finance. We are now a registered charity and will be applying
for grants to assist the work.
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.
The dogs are all wormed, fully vaccinated, neutered (if old enough), routinely treated
for fleas and Identi-chipped. A contribution to cover this cost is greatly appreciated.
Wolfwood receives no funding, and any help towards the large monthly vet bill is
hugely valued, click here for further information.
Wolfwood was set up in early 2007, initially to rehome the least wanted dogs from the area.
We are a very small, family - run rescue and frequently have many guests needing new homes. We give a personal and friendly service, with plenty of advice and support. We work on a one to one basis and tailor each individual dogs needs to prospective new owners. Some dogs 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.
Wolfwood is constantly expanding, as British Wildlife rehabilitation and release was lacking in North Lancashire and South Cumbria. For the past three years we have been taking in injured animals from as far away as Blackpool in the south, to Kendal in the north. In the past, most injured animals had been euthanised through lack of local facility and so to be able to watch a released animal or bird return to the wild is exciting and very rewarding.
