For those who have never heard of us, we are Gavin and Andrea Gamby-Boulger who has set up the National Wetnose Animal Campaign in loving memory of our beloved German Shepherd bitch called "Tara"

We used to run a Dog Rescue Centre in Norfolk called "Meadowgreen" from 1989 to the Spring of 2001, nearly 12 years. We took in strays from the Council and the public and in return re-homed approx 500 dogs every year. After doing years of research and visiting other centres; we know just how hard people in small Rescue Centres work, and what little support they get from the public or local businesses.

Our aim is to raise money and awareness for the sick and needy animals in the smaller Animal Rescue Centres and good causes all over the country. After 4 busy years we have been very encouraged by our fund raising events and have also raised money from our shop in Beccles, Suffolk.

Wetnose will also campaign to stop fireworks being used all year round, due to so many animals being injured and even killed. In our opinion, fireworks should only be used at big organized events away from as many animals as possible. Wetnose will also campaign to make women aware of HRT treatment that is extracted from horse urine! [More]

In the past, at our Dog Rescue Centre in Norfolk, we saw many sad and terrible sights of dogs being mentally and physically abused. Far too many too mention. There's a lot more to running a Rescue Centre than just looking after the animals; and that's without having to fund raise all year round as well!

In our experience, we know only too well how these Centres are really struggling, due to lack of funds and volunteers. Many still having to cope with the costs of never ending vet's bills, and medical supplies; and that's without special diets, fuel, repairs, insurances and all the other costs. Wetnose will vet these Rescue Centres and providing the correct criteria is met, we will help pay off these vets bills, or buy equipment such as incubators or cat traps and additionally offering help and advice when it's needed.

Not all animals in Rescue Centres are strays picked up from the streets…..oh no, many are dumped or unwanted because they are pregnant, sick, have bad teeth, or need operations. We know just how hard these smaller Centres work, and there are many that will have to close if no help is given. We cannot just sit back and let this happen, because without them, a lot more domestic and wildlife animals would suffer and be in a very sorry state indeed. We all know who the BIG Rescue Centres are, now lets do more to help the smaller Centres continue with there never ending work.
We will do all we can to help these small Rescue Centres keep on going, please join me and give these people and the animals what they deserve.
