If you’re a fan of The Dog House, here are six ways you can show your support and make a real difference to the lives of vulnerable pets
Channel 4’s The Dog House is filmed right here at Woodgreen and has captured the hearts of more than a million viewers each week. This heartwarming show follows the dedicated team here at Woodgreen as they work tirelessly to rehabilitate and rehome unlucky dogs in need. Based in Cambridgeshire, Woodgreen helps support over 8,000 dogs, cats, and small animals each year. We’ve also provided invaluable support to more than 67,000 pet owners, offering free advice and hands-on assistance.
With increasing pressure on Woodgreen’s services due to the cost of living crisis, and a 60% increase in stray pets coming through their doors, the charity needs your support more than ever to continue helping dogs such as some of the most recent canine stars of The Dog House including poor Tiddles the stray.
Stray Tiddles finds love on The Dog House
One of the recent stars of the show was Tiddles, a small dog rescued by a local warden and brought to Woodgreen for urgent care. When she arrived, Tiddles was in a sorry state – matted, exhausted, and scared. The compassionate team at Woodgreen worked their magic, not only improving her appearance but also rebuilding her trust in humans.
