Hi Kevin
Fantastic to hear from you. You lucky boy. Bet you are enjoying the school run, all those cuddles from the little people. You certainly seem to have found your dream home. Keep up the good work. It gets even better with time believe us. lots of love Susie, Sammie, Dino and not forgetting our mum Pam xxxxx

Hi Ruth and the gang, it's Kevin here!

It's been less than 48 hours so I don't want to jinx anything just yet, but I think I might be liking it here! I had a difficult first night as I cried because I was in a strange house and missed Vicky and Johnnie (my foster mum and brother) but I was as good as gold last night and the Kong seemed to help! My new mum and dad said they weren't going to change my name, but they have - they are now calling me "Go-wee-wee-Kevin". Strangely, they started calling me this every 5 mins after I piddled on the conservatory floor - well how was I supposed to know?? I love doing the 'school run' (weird - it's more of a 'school walk'?) as I get a queue of little people and their owners waiting to stroke me. I think Monty the cat wants to be friends with me as we sniff each other though the gate, and there's a rumour that there is another cat living here too, but I haven't seen her yet - apparently she's still hiding under the bed. I met a little Scottie dog yesterday who scared me at first, but then I decided to be brave and walked with him up the road and now I think he might be my friend too. I am learning to let my new mum out of my sight without crying and I even let her go out on her own for 20 mins today - she was very good and came back when she said she would!

Anyway, I better go as I ought to have another nap - it's a hard life you know! Love and licks, Kevin xxx

Wolfy arrived back at the kennels on Saturday, and as his foster carers could not handle him with other dogs being such a strong boy, we decided to start some 'serious' training with him. He loved Elmdon Park and wasn't bothered by the ducks. He barked at a couple of small fluffy dogs and got to meet 2 German Shepherds. The owner of the Shepherds was lovely and allowed Wolfy to sniff them as he was very excited to see them at first! Back at the kennels he spent time with Cracker (pictured) and he eventually fell asleep on the sofa in the run after such an exciting day!

Hi Ruth, Tom here. Just wanted to let you know that things are going quite well. The strange two in the photo that came are OK, they keep fussing me and feeding me, but my new friend Dreamer is lovely. She does steel my bed a bit though, but that's OK, we just swap.
I really like my new home and am being a good boy - I get lots of food and go out on quite a few walks, though they do get up a bit early.
Just wanted you to know I am OK and thanks for looking after me.
Lots of love..... Tom XX (& Dreamer too lick lick)

Hello again! That sounds very nasty cut to Wolfy's paw, poor Wolfy. It looks like you have done a good job with Wolfy, he doesn't seem at all bothered by the Staffie. Is he a good boy in the house now? I think he has a very good chance now of getting a wonderful home. Well done, and i hope his progress continues. :D

Hello everyone

just a quick update on Toby. he was checked over and registered with our vet last week and behaved ever so well. we weighed him and he was 34.1kg which means he had put on weight and is looking really well. he has now found his appetite and his voice especially when he sees a fox on our 5 am morning walk, boy can he move when he wants to. the rest of the time he loves lounging on 'his sofa' 9 times out of ten with all four legs in the air and his tongue hanging out. i just went past the vets on our way home from the park and popped him on the scales again and he's now 34.3 kg so i am very pleased with his progress. will keep you posted and hope to send you some more pictures soon. love Ina xxx ( and the boys )

Hi Avril, I am very pleased to hear Penny is doing so well.
After the sadness she has been through, she needs a lot of TLC. Well done to you for helping her at her sad time. Please keep in touch.

Hi there - Jack is an eager boy but I always say 'never say never'. I have detrained my greyhounds - two of which were VERY keen when I had them and they ended up being off the lead and unmuzzled so it can be done but it takes a lot of time and patience with a few of them. If you fancy a challenge - he would be the one!

this photo is a corker, i just love his big cheesy grin. well done Gorgeous George, way to go!!!! love Rossi and Toby ( oh Yeah and their mum Ina xxx)

Hiya Ruth

Jack is the half brother to one of our girlies...do you think he could be detrained to live with small furries or is his prey drive too strong??
