We took Snap on the Stratford Walk today and he was a very good boy. He travelled well in the car and enjoyed being with all his greyhound buddies. He didn't mind standing around beforehand and enjoyed walking at the front of the group. He has been with us for 24 hours and is doing brilliantly with his mealtimes, eye drops and letting us know when he wants to go into the back garden. He and Gigi are getting along nicely. He likes being with us especially in the kitchen and also in his bed when we are watching a film.

Just sent Snap a hug. I hope that the new drops are helping his eyes - they looked a bit better last weekend.
I suspect that he may have opened a bottle of port and had a slurp when he was at our house on Saturday. I thought that I heard the bottles clinking and he seemed very happy afterwards.

At the cafe in Bruton Park this morning, a very nice lady gave Snap some bacon from her sandwich. He enjoyed it so much that he was licking his lips for the next 10 minutes.

I popped in at the kennels on Sunday afternoon and Snap and Lucy were in the sand run. Lucy was enjoying herself with a rope toy. Snap couldn't be bothered and stood next to me watching her - it's all a bit too much like hard work for our Snap. Back in the kennels a few minutes later and he could hardly keep his eyes open. Watching Lucy running around in circles is a pretty exhausting workout for a hound like Snap.

Another lovely day out with the awesome twosome. We did too much together today to list here, but it's becomming increasingly difficult to return Snap & Lucy to the kennels. They both looked well cheesed off when I left them today!
Snap's favourite lunch is now egg, rice and tuna. Today's bowl was consumed in record time but when we sat down for lunch, both of them patiently waited for us to finish. Perfect!

We have been fortunate enough to spend much of the day with Snap & Lucy. This morning we took them to Bruton Park where both of them received a lot of attention from passers by. Both are perfectly behaved behaved with other dogs, large or small. Snap takes everything in his majestic stride and is such an easy hound to walk.

Rather than heading straight back to the kennels, we all went back to our house for a rest and something to eat. We were not sure what to expect from these two as we believed this to be their first home visit. Snap clearly enjoys being in a domestic setting and settled very well. Anybody that knows Snap will know that he loves a quick kip. Today was no exception and I am relieved that he did not discover how to get on to the sofa as he would probably still be asleep there. After watching Lucy go up stairs, Snap decided to give it a try but in a less convincing way. He stuttered half way up and did his Bambi impression until he regained his confidence. Both hounds had to be carried down! Snap certainly benefits from having Lucy around and was a wonderful house guest.

I hope my pals Snap and Lucy are OK. I filmed them in their kennel on Saturday morning, just hanging around having fuss and treats. What beautiful hounds they are - everybody who has seen the clip agrees. Both should really have found a home by now.
I certainly think that Snap needs a bit of time out of kennels at the weekend.

Jembob, I am sure Snap will enjoy his walk with you on Saturday. He really is adorable, sounds like my hound Jack, he sleeps like a cat, even falls asleep whilst waiting for his dinner. They are all so special, each one with their own quirky ways, but I do hope this boy doesn't have to wait too much longer for a loving home xxx

Snap really enjoyed his walk around Kingsbury today. He was excited about walking with so many other greyhound but was impeccably behaved as always.
He is such a handsome lad and had many compliments from people in the park. He did however, claim the back seat of the car for himself and forced poor Lucy into the corner for the journey home!

Another lovely sunshine walk with my pal Snap today. He was rather disgusted that I did not have any treats for him today. Even so, we still had a nice chill with Lucy after our walk.

My clean kennel award today goes to the handsome Snap, and of course his pretty kennel mate Lucy. On opening up I had to double check they had actually spent the night there and hadn't sneaked out to a party! A quick straighten pf the blanket and they were done. Snap is such a quiet and calm boy, and is so very good at standing still to have his eye drops in bless him. I really hope he doesn't have to wait too much longer for his forever home. xxx

Snap decided that he would prefer to have a nice sleep rather than going to the park. It took a treat to tempt him off his bed.
It's great walking with Snap - every now and again he does a little skip but I dont know why. We walked around the lake by which time he was ready to head back to DB. Snap gets into the car easily, travels very well and is a pleasure to be with. Top hound.

Snap made me laugh today. Tina went a bit mad when I went to see them today - she can smell a new-formula sardine oatcake a mile off. While she was jumping all over me (at one point she had a paw in my ear!!!)', Snap stood there watching her and you could see him thinking 'What the ......' His patience and good manners earned him the first treat out of the bag!
Julie took him for a walk this morning and he is great to be with. A very impressive physical specimen and a real character waiting to be unleashed.
Have we got any spare space at Christmas?

Snap and Tina have today joined 35 other dogs and their 'hoomans' on todays Stratford Walk. Many thanks to everyone for braving the winter weather. Thankfully the rain had passed through and we all stayed dry.
Snap is a happy friendly lad who gets on well with all his fellow greys. He met non greys with no aggression only curiousity. Travelled quietly in the van.
A lovely lad who will be a wonderful addition to a family home.

Another great walk with this super hound. He does come across as nervous to start with but really gets stuck in to his walks. Any lack of confidence at the moment will soon evaporate when he's been in a loving home for a short while.
This weekend last year, we were heading off to Antigua for a couple of weeks but as we have not been in a position to do that this year, what better could you do than to spend time with a couple of wonderful hounds like Snap and Tina.
Last week I summarised Snap's post saying that he is a top hound. He is that indeed and I can't recommend him enough to any prospective adopters.

Last week, both Snap and Tina thoroughly abused me in pursuit of savory morsels. I found myself pummeled by the two of them into surrendering a small bag of biscuits and treats. Quite shameful.

Hoping to repeat the experience tomorrow, I have baked a batch of sardine & oat biscuits which will be dispensed after morning walks. There are plenty to go around.

I took Snap to Elmdon Park this morning. He is sharing a kennel with Tina and both were a little nervous when I first went in to get them. An hour or so later both were climbing all over me in pursuit of a bag of treats in my top pocket. Most disrespectful! :) They obviously get on very well together.
Snap needed a bit of encouragement to get into my car but once in he settled quickly and seemed to enjoy the short journey to the park. This was his first visit to the park so I wasn't sure what to expect. What I found was that he is a very easy dog on the lead who was very interested in everything. Not too excitable but pleasantly enthusiastic. Snap was fine with humans and other dogs although the lake and it's inhabitants were something of a mystery! We managed the Nature Park and the lake so we did a good 2 or 3 miles and he was brilliant all the way around. Snap had many admirers who wanted to say hello - hardly surprising as he is a handsome lad.
Back at HQ, we had a chill with Tina, and once the treats were consumed, Snap rested his chin on my leg and looked a contented dog. He will soon settle into domestic life and will make a fantastic, loving member of a family. Top hound!
