So pearl has had her stitches out & is all healed now. Looking forward to the hair growing back on her stump x

Awww I really want to see her stump of a tail! My schnauzer has a docked tail and when she wags her tail her body wags aswell!

so pleased she is ok, she will be fine with her short tail, my two look really cute....bet she will 'milk' the situation for all the fuss and attention she can get out of it :-) xx

So pleased to hear she is fine. I am sure she will be spoilt rotten when she comes home! xxx

Great news. Love to all.

Take Care.

Pearl has come through the op ok & has a v short stump apparently! Can't wait to pick her up later, thank you for all you kind wishes x

Lots of love to Pearl for her operation tomorrow. xxx

Thinking of you all today xxx

sorry bout spelling mistakes.wish pearl all the best.xxxxx

Andre is a great vet. sadly we did lose Mindy, but after a lot of care from him. Since then we fostered Sheena. who's shattered leg he saved & we re-homed several month's later. (one could not let her go)
Love to all for Friday, will be thinking of you all.

Hopefully all go well as its Andre the RGT vet doing her op. Thanks for all the posts, keeping everything crossed x

Poor old Pearl. However, from what I knew of her, having less of a tail will certainly not dampen her enthusiasm for wagging it!

I hope that the operation goes well for her on Friday and my thoughts are with you all.

tiggers mum-thats exactly what i always used to sat to vet bout our old lurcher,you,ve explained it better tan i could---good luck to pearl fingers toes paws & hoofs crossed for you

Hope all goes well for Pearl- I always say to my vets if it's a new vet or nurse ... ' you do know that greyhounds can't tolerate barbiturates don't you? They may think/know I'm an interfering old bat but at least I've told them - not all vets realise that greys need special anaesthetics as they don't have the body fat that other breeds do so greys can't get rid of the anaesthetic which recirculates and can kill them :( J x

Sending best wishes to Pearl and I hope all goes
Well on Friday.

lots of good wishes coming your way Pearl....and a hug for your worried mum and dad, love from Ina Rossi Toby McKenzie and Daisy...xxxxx

Fingers & paws crossed for Pearl and you on friday.x x

My poor pearl has to have her tail amputated on Friday from where its broken to the tip. Poor baby & another anaesthetic to get through x

I don't mind her having a short tail if necessary, just terrified of her having to have an anaesthetic so soon after my poor Dolly, fingers crossed for her. Lots of snuggles & treats methinks x

oh poor little Pearl, two of my boys ended up with a short tail as they kept breaking their tails open and once they tail was short the problem disappeared and they look just as cute with their little tails...hopefully it won't come to that but if it does then be rest assured that they are perfectly fine with a short tail.much love Ina and her two shortails and 2 longtails :-) x

Big cuddles for poor Pearl, such a shame for her. Love the nickname for her sister, so apt - hope she doesn't eat you out of house & home!! x

It turns out my poor pearl has a broken tail, no wonder she cries when she knocks it. Got to wait & see what the trust vet says on Tuesday now, possibly another anaesthetic, I can't believe it. Poor girl, lots of snuggles when daddy brings you home from seeing auntie Ruth xxx

Pearl is being such a good girly. Her tail is still sore & needs a bandage but at least it isn't a blood bath when she takes it off now. She is a bit of a foodie but nothing like the Fredanator (as her new sister is known!)!!! Pigs ears do not last long do they my darling girl!

Pearl is settling really well. Woke up today & she had sneaked onto the bed, curled up small so we wouldn't notice! She looked so smug when Freda got told off for stealing all the dog biscuits!

a very happy Pearl went into her new home today with the handsome Teddy and her 'sis' Freda. they make a very handsome hound family and surely will give their new family many happy moments. xxxx

Pearl & Freda have joined Teddy in our house! So far we have explored everywhere inside & out, opened the loo door when youngest had forgotten to lock it & eaten our tea, mealtimes must be supervised as currently the idea of 1 bowl each hasn't been established!!! All good fun & can't wait to see her personality come through. Gone out for a long tiring walk with daddy, Teddy & big brothers now x

Well done Pearl - off with new friend Freda to a lovely new home - be happy! x

Pearl this is just fantastic news for you what a brilliant family all those humans and doggies to play with,this has really made my day and I am sure you will be very happy.
What wonderful people that have adopted you and Freda.

Pearl is very sweet and loving. She stayed with us for a few days and was such a jolly dog - a real pleasure to have around.

I love having 3 and both pearl and freda are loverly girls xxxxx

Yes she is a sweetie and she does look a little lost back in kennels having been in a home for quite a while.Hoping a new home is just around the corner,

Coming to c u on Friday. X

Hello sweetie, can I talk the other half into 3? He has said maybe....

What a sweet little thing xx sending my hugs x

Pearl you really do need to sell yourself a bit more! This little girl is just so lovely and house trained.She was a much loved girl who due to a difficult situation came back to kennels.She is quiet and doesn't push herself forward.She will make a great addition to any family and really needs to be back in a home.So if you are looking for a lovely little lady who is house trained great on the lead little Pearl could be the one for you.Pop down to the kennels and you will see what I mean.

Oh Pearl, you are beautiful, if we only had room to go back up to 3 greys :0( I will keep showing John your photos. Big big cuddlesxxx

a very friendly little girl so well behaved

Pearl was so good on her walk today she looked at the chicken on the side of the road her ears went up but nothing else!

Pearl is staying with us until Saturday, then she'll go back to the kennels and hopefully be homed again.

I have to say though that I have never met a dog as jolly or cheerful as Pearl. Her tail never stops wagging and she is always so pleased to see you.

Overnight she was clean in the house and didn't make a sound. She gets on well with our two Golden Retrievers but is interested in the cat. However, it is easy to get her attention back on you so we'll see how she goes with some cat training.

Pearl dont worry as you are house trained and beautiful you will surely get another sofa soon!

Poor thing, I guess it didn't work out. Being house trained hopefully she will get a new home quickly xxxx

Good luck to Pearl and her owner - she was Macca's kennelmate so I know what a lovelly girl she is.

Wish them well and hope it all works out for them xxxx

Delighted to hear that Pearls owner is trying to help her get over her stress, got paws crossed that it works out. Good luck xxx

Well hope all works well for all concerned.
Ruth will be there for both with a helping hand.
Love The New Icemaid Clan.

I do hope they can help each other at what must be an awful time. xx

Pearls owner has decided to try and work with Pearl to help overcome her stress,so she is not being returned at the moment

Very sorry for all concerned, big hug to Pearl. xxxx

Sad news for Pearl and her family :-( best wishes to them all.....it must be very hard xxxx Hope she gets a new home quickly xxxx

Ahhhh good girl little pearl! You are a gem and your new family are very lucky. Xxxx

So, Pearl made it home, had her dinner (nothing wrong with her appetite!), did her business outside, had a good look around her new home (but hasn't tackled the stairs yet!).

She had her coat brushed, her new jacket put on and went for a nice long walk and she behaved very well. Now she is lying on the rug where she hasn't moved from in the past hour!! All good so far :-) x

Met Pearl today while at Daybreaks, she sat very quietly on her bed in her kennel but did come for a fuss with a little encouragement. What a beautiful little girl, and hope it works out for you in your new home x

Passed the home test and Pearl will be moving in with her loving family on Sunday!! x

Pearl is such a beauty, I am so happy for her and her new family, she will be showered with love and cuddles x

Can't wait to get our pretty girl home. So pleased, she's loved by all the family already. Love at first sight :)

Well done pearl, your stay was not long at all, and all because you know how to break hearts with your beauty x

So pleased you have a new forever home xxxx

well done Angelface, so happy to see that someone wants you after all, did not think it would take long with that cute face of yours :-) xxx

Poor thing, hope a new and forever home comes soon for the pretty girl xxxx

how could anyone not want her, she is gorgeous...xxxx
