Hello, we are Digby and Bertie. Two of the dogs running with Welly's Woofers.
Please support us in our 5K race to help other dogs and cats at Battersea. We are lucky in that we have loving families and friends who look after and care for us, but others are not so fortunate. For me, Digby, this will also be a major milestone. I have been suffering with a tumour on my spine and have just undergone a major operation and radiology treatment in Jan and Feb this year. So, this fun obstacle course and walk/run in May will be my first milestone to aim for to help get me back to full fitness and health. And even better my brother is doing it with me, and we can get very muddy together where we are allowed to for once! So please support us, and our lovely family and friends running today. And help other dogs and cats not so fortunate as us! Thank you! Lots of woofs and licks xx Bertie, Digby, Claire. Susan and Sarah. xxxxx
Battersea is here for every dog and cat, and has been since 1860.We believe that every dog and cat deserves the best. That’s why we help every dog or cat in need – whether it’s newly-born or getting on, cute or cute in its own way. Battersea has always been funded by public donations. It is thanks to the generosity of animal lovers everywhere that we have been able to protect the happiness and dignity of dogs and cats in Britain and beyond.In 2017, we cared for over 7,000 animals which we simply could not do without your support.
