thanks Julie, its really kind of you to take the time to let me know how he is doing, my son and myself do miss him lots but we are both happy knowing he is with other greys and in a loving home, he is a good boy just a very nervous one so i was worried about who choose him but reading your comments has really put us at ease surprised about the cats though he used to go mad to get to them but having said that he never actually saw one while off his lead !! Give him a cuddle from us thanks again Gaye x

Hi Gaye, He really is a good boy, bless him. He's havin 2 long walks a day with his brothers and sisters and today we let them have a run together in an enclosed area by us. His appetite is amazing and loves his treats. He just seems to observe the cats at the mo (there's loads by us) but our other 2 greys go mental, in fact they enjoy sitting on the sofa in the conservatory waiting for them to jump up onto next doors gate. Training them to 'chill' and 'ssshhh', sometimes it works,sometimes it doesn't! Will keep you updated it you like?

Hi Julie, thanks for the updates so pleased he is settling in well i do miss him. He's a real good boy never has any accidents in the house! he's just a very nervous boy, im sure now he is with other greys he will settle just fine, he loves his walk and on occasion i did let him off his lead and he did come back just have to be careful he doesnt spot a cat he goes crazy !!He loves being brushed too just not to close to his ears he's a bit sensitive there. Thanks for giving him a loving home it really helps to know he will be loved. Thanks again Gaye.

It's great Sprites settling in & he's finally got his appetite back. Giv them all a cuddle from me. X
Friday 24 Sep 13:44
Wow what a appetite he has now! Ate all his dinner again mixed with sardines n baked beans. Egg on toast this morning! Loves his treats...All totally chilled and no grumbles. Branston had no muzzle either last night and didnt hear a thing. Fitting in great!x
Friday 24 Sep 13:39
Hi Julie, yes, until he is 'signed' for - I have to keep his kennel space 'open'...... x
Friday 24 Sep 13:35
Hi Ruth,
As Sprite is reserved and with us, does that mean he is still taking up 'space' that another Grey could be given if you know what I mean?x

Collected Sprite yesterday and he is as good as gold, another Guinny i think! He ate all his food mixed in with sardines and brown bread and butter last nite, ate his cheese on toast this morning. No mess in the house, enjoyed his walk this morning and now they are all chilled till the next one later. Pickle and Guinny are fine, Branstons a growly grumpy so he slept with his muzzle on last nite just to be safe. The chickens are having a few heart attacks 2 as he's v interested in them but he'll soon get used to them!x

Hi Gaye, Looking forward to picking Sprite up Friday after he has met our 3 greys first. Hoping all goes really well because we have fallen in love with him. He will have a very loving home here and will certainly be cared for. We love walking so he will certainly become a very fit dog! Thanks for the tip about the rain on the conservatory and windows, will keep that in mind! Julie

Hi Julie, Sprites doin ok, he's fine on the lead, in a kennel on his own but is ok with that, he's a lot more settled than he was, he's been gettin lots of fuss n attention from all of us. This afternoon he managed 2 eat some of is food, we put the rest in the kennel 4 him. It's the most he's eaten since he came back so he is becoming more settled. He is a lovely boy, your lucky 2 have him but then he's goin 2 b so lucky 2 hav u, ur family n his new brothers n sister. I know u will look after him n giv him the life he deserves. Lol x

If i can get a lift and a wheel chair we will pop up. kids can't wait to see him and do remember him 2. Give him a big kiss from us all. any chance of another photo!?x
