Not surprised! Lucky you and lucky Nelly - I do have a little weak spot for the brindles. And also, what a brilliant weekend at the kennels with so many hounds homed or reserved - great to see. Hopefully we are back soon, either this coming Wednesday or the next one. Have missed everyone. Xx

We met Nelly at The Fun Day Solihull Riding stables, she is lovely. She made friends with our Grey Sammy. She will have a lovely home with Jill and Paul.

The gorgeous Nelly came home with me on Wednesday evening and she was speyed at Fivelands on Thursday. She has recovered well but has stayed at ours as she is quite a nervous little girl. Tonight she has been laying in the lounge and has gained a lot more confidence. She is soooo sweet!

As I can't do it for real today, virtual cuddle done xxxx

Hope Nelly is doing ok after her operation today. Xxx

I hope you are being a good girl sweetheart, my home is a little empty tonight. Will be sending lots of love and positive thoughts for you tomorrow xxxxxx

Hope Nelly's op goes OK tomorrow. Xx

Nelly is stopping at aunty Ruth tonight as she is being speyed tomorrow. She spent the day with me at the kennels so took the opportunity to introduce her to the cats, yet again she was golden. I am missing her at home tonight but know she is in good hands, be good angel and see you soon. Xxxxx

Nelly spent the day at the dog show yesterday, helping Paul on the door. I'm not sure what has happened but she is transformed! Following us round the house rather than sitting in the corner, wandering around the garden without having to be taken out on the lead, I even got a good morning bow this morning and a little smile. Such a lovable girl.

hi jill glad nelly is settling down after the fun we had getting her into the boot of your car sounds like she likes it at your house lol xx

Nell is gradually coming out of her shell, we are now being greeted with a waggy tail,

What is this I'm reading - you have the beautiful Nelly at your house?!!!! Why am I not very surprised! Xx

Nelly is being a perfect house guest, toileting outside and slept all night. She is still a little nervous around traffic and meeting new people, but working with her to help her adjust to home life.

What a very lovely, shy little girl. Quite nervous but after a little while likes a nice cuddle! Xx

Beautuful, looking forward to a long cuddle tomorrow xxxx
