can u believe they are killing off wellard in eastenders how sad

Hasnt he been in it 14 years???? And he wasnt a pup when they found him
So surely it is just natural that he is going????
Lea

he has been in it for 14 yrs but its still sad por old wellard

I think I read the other day that there have been 3 different dogs playing Wellard since he first appeared.

Yes I think it said it was his mother and Grand-Mother if I remember correctly.

Yes I believe it was mother daughter and grandaughter!!!

Goodness, I never watch Eastenders so I am pretty shocked the way that dog has been passed around.  I know it is not real but it doesn't send a very good message does it.

http://minka-bsd.co.uk/index.html The breeder's and owner's website. Kyte is an agility dog. I do think it would have been too unrealistic to have Wellard live for much longer as "he" must be at least 15. Belgians can be quite long lived but even so..... I just hope it won't be a silly/irresponsible storyline yet again, be far better with a nice realistic one of an old dog simply being old and unwell and needing the vet one last time.

I was thinking exactly that when I read it Isabel!!!!
Bring back the days of Little Willie and Rolo, where they stay with their owner until they die!!

Rolo the Poodle was killed in an RTA & Ethel had Willie PTS

I think most of use end up having our dogs PTS at the end of their lives but the point is it was not because he was unwanted. 

I agree Isabel, still very sad!
