Welp is a rural southern pronunciation of the word well, nothing more, nothing less.

Whelp usually refers to a puppy but, although it isn't commonly used, it may be used to refer to someone's young son or daughter. Whelp may also refer the birthing of puppies. Dog breeders often have a whelping room for their female dogs.
