Wilf On The Road.....






There's not many dog's in rescue that can claim to get away for a few days on holiday, but Wilf certainly can. Thanks to Lynn and her partner Phil, Wilf has spent today walking the final 15 miles of their tour of Hadrians wall. An overnight stay at mine allowed Wilf to catch up with old friends Oskar, Sky, Star and Dusty before setting off to meet Lynn, Phil and team for his expedition and then a slumber party at their house. As you can see, he had a wonderful time and experienced some very strange situations for a rescue dog, all of which were taken in his stride with such composure. Lynn sent me this text which shows how much he has come across today:

"Well that's Wilf walked fifteen miles today from heddon-on-the-wall to wallsend n
he's as shattered as the rest of us but he's been as good as gold. Didn't bat an
eyelid at any other walkers, dogs, cyclists or traffic. We've been on the metro, in
a lift, up part of northumberland street n he's now sound asleep on the x21 to
bedlington station. Just hope he wakes me up when we get there so I don't miss the
stop."

I'm sure you'll all remember how Wilf arrived at SHAK, bald and with mange. Thanks to Lynn and Phil for taking the time to give Wilf a well earned holiday.
