A belated happy birthday to this lovely boy. Such a lot of hounds with November birthdays!x

He sounds a very special boy...Happy Birthday Sonny! xxx

Happy 9th Birthday to our beautiful real life teddy bear Sonny ! the years seem to be flying past, a little update, he is doing fine and is fit and healthy and still gives his younger sibling Poppy a run for her money ! He is such a big softy its unbelieveable, he now happily lives with chickens along with the cat, and will happily walk around the garden with the chooks and doesnt take a bit of notice bless him, we recenty aquired two little ducklings and he happily sniffs them and wasnt fazed at all when one of them decided to jump on him while he lay down ! (im sure they think he is there mum) All in all he is our gorgeous boy who is loved by all his family and friends - Yep i could go on all day but ill stop now! Any one still condsidering adopting a nice cuddly hound - Go for it you wont be dissapointed ! xxxxxxxx

What a beautiful dog - so like my Freedom its uncanny - Happy Anniversary gorgeous boy. x

Happy forever home anniversary Sonny. You are a very lucky boy!

Sonny my gorgeous boy has been with us for a year now ! time certainly flies, he is a part of our family and is truly amazing, he is loved to bits by everyone, he is my big teddy bear, brilliant with the kids cat and rabbit, We are so blessed to have such a wonderfull boy, im pleased to report he can now get upstairs..Wehey !!, it did take him 9 months to get his confidence and eventually went up with Poppy behind him as if she was shoving him up ! but he now zips up and down and is so proud of himself and loves our bed... and thinks if his head is under a pillow .. you cant really see him ... LOL Thank you Daybreaks for allowing us to have him XX

Sonny frightened the life out of us on Sunday night, he lay down and couldnt get back up again ? he went for his normal walks, eaten well, all seemed fine, nothing out of the ordinary happened during the day, but he was completely out of it at 6pm, it was as if he fainted ? when he came too he couldnt get up but eventually managed too, but couldnt put any weight on his right leg, then he tried to walk and dragged his paw on the floor,before flopping back down again, his leg felt really cold, but the heating was on in the house. After a very worrying night the next morning he was perky again and just had a slight limp in the right leg, the vet has cheked him all over and said no sore spots or nothing obvious going on ? everything seems fine, and it may have been a blood clot ? or some kind of acute bone pain ? and if it happens again to take him straight back, he is on Metacam pain killer and today he is absolutely fine as if nothing happened ? Has any one else had anything like this happen, we are worried sick its going to happen again and it was so awful to see him like this.

What a fab photo! Em xxx

Happy 7th Birthday to our gorgeous big teddy bear Sonny !
He has had a fabulous day so far, lots of pressies and had a lovely cooked breakfast this morning along with Poppy on a little table (yes we are daft !) he has a bottle of 'Doggy Beer' to drink this evening along with his dad !!, not sure if he will share with Poppy though ? she is probably a wine girl ! Xx

He is certainly ready Pam, we are looking forward to it, see you Sat XX

So pleased the news was good. He is ready for Saturday's collection in Shirley now

To all. Please kep your comments coming we love to hear about the greys we have homed.
xx

Had some good news about Sonnys growths that he had removed they were benign tumors something called an angioma ? big SIGH of relief !! whoooo hoo !! stitches come out tommorow afternoon then we are back to 'normal' ! So VERY happy XXXX!!!!!!!

Hi all I love reading how other Greys are getting on, so thought id give a litle update, Sonny has just come back from his first holiday , he really enjoyed it and found it all very reaxing!! well apart from the sea which he wasnt impressed with ! He was so well behaved (unlike the weather) and enjoyed his cooked breakfasts...and testing all the beds! One thing he did not like was the steps to the caravan he couldnt get up or down, (same at home) which must have looked pretty funny to others at 6am on a morning with me in my pj's and hoodie (too early to be dressed I was on holiday !) going out for his tinkle up a lampost then having to hoist him up the stairs (4 ) Any help or advice would be much appreciated on how to help him feel confident about going up and down the stairs XX

Hi all, just thought I would update you how Sonny is getting on (Frank) He is an absolute star ! and we are so in love with him already. He came home Friday and has toileted outside from the time we got home, given him lots of praise and now goes to the patio doors to let us know he needs to go again ! He is doing well with Jaz the cat and he is responding to 'leave' and loves his reward after (cheese) X

Realy enjoyed our cuddles today - cant wait to bring you home, such a gorgeous boy - we hope you will be ok with your op on Mon to be neutered (im sure you wont miss them too much !)
We will all be thinking about you sweetie, big hugs from your new family XXX
