Chewie arrived on 26th August 2010
Nicknamed 'Chewie' after the famous Star Wars Wookie Chewbacca, the week old pup - the earliest Grey Seal pup the Sanctuary has ever rescued - still has his umbilical cord attached.

During the first weeks in the hospital, Chewie was given a warm multi-milk mixture specifically made up for such a young pup. The special milk formula provides young pups with most of the nutrients they would normally get from their mother's milk. 		Chewie
As soon as Chewie is strong enough, he will be moved into the outside pool for the next stage of his rehabilitation and to learn to compete for fish with our resident seals.
