Story

Dwayne "The Rockfish" Johnson is the first pup of the season!

Patient Updates

We're gonna miss this handsome young man. He's ready to go home after several months of rehab. He has reached a healthy release weight and is as fit as a juvenile harbour seal pup could be!

Dwayne spends more time in the water than hauled out. He's gained a lot of weight and is looking fantastic. He'll probably be released soon...

Dwayne has been moved to a pre-release pool. He is eating well on his own, and diving for fish thrown into the pool.

Dwayne is very curious and alert, doing well during his tube-feeds and enjoying his baths. He's also beginning to lose his lanugo, the soft hair still covering most of his body.
