Champ

Champ is a super lad, loves people and will happily lean on anyone who is near enough! He went to the park with Norman on Tuesday and had a great time. Xx He really doesn’t like kennel life. He would love a home where there is someone with him most of the time. Xxx

Great to have the Daybreaks Diary back with us!! I can now remind everyone our Valentines Photoshoot & Open Day is only a week away, look forward to seeing lots of you and your hounds. There’s lots to do - doggy lucky dip, tombola, guess the name of the teddy bear, stalls, tea & cakes and our Honesty Box corner. Please keep everything crossed for some good weather. Also, Pet Dental Health Month is underway. Raffle tickets are now on sale for baskets of dental products (supported by Bugalugs Pet Care), we have special promotions on dental products in the shop and drop in sessions arranged for 16th & 23rd February - pop in for help and advice and take away some leaflets too. Thanks for your continuing support. Angie x

We remembered today our beautiful boy, Jetson, who we sadly had to say goodbye to before Christmas. We homed him on 31st January 2019. <em>Jetson, our beautiful greyhound. Six years together - relaxing on the sofa, sunbathing on the patio. You loved the quiet life we offered & we loved you so much. </em> <em>We miss you & the home feels empty without you - you filled our lives with joy & love. Run free now, Jetson, on rainbow bridge. See you soon. Love Mummy & Daddy xxxx.</em>

Gino
I’m Available
I fostered Gino during Christmas, he's an absolutely lovely boy, perfect in every way! Gino had the choice to go anywhere in the apartment but he decided to stay with me in my room and sleep next to me in my bed, what is yours is his! ❤️. Gino loves nothing more than having a nice run around then cuddling up to his favourite people after a nice meal, he isn't a big fan of tinned meat chunks but loves anything that's similar to pate trays! Gino loves absolutely everyone and wants to say hi to everyone he sees but he dosen't really like other dogs and will need someone strong who is able to hold him just in case he gets a bit reactive, but with plenty of treats even in the span on the two weeks I had him he made friends with a bulldog and started to ignore other breeds! I believe he would get along with a girl with a lot of introductions. He learns very fast, is easy to train, has no accidents and loves the occasional long walk, the smart boy will tell you exactly when he's finished with his walks! Make sure to give him extra love during fireworks and loud winds as he's very nervous and may pace around the house. Lastly, Gino was great when he met kids of all ages and energies, but he was not a big fan of being left alone, with time and patience he will learn to stay alone for longer periods of time but he needs someone who can spend as much time with him as possible! He is the sweetest boy and will love you just as much as you love him 💕

Hi Maggie, Unfortunately, we no longer have cat-testing facilities at Daybreaks so we can't confirm whether he would be cat friendly. Please give the kennels a call to discuss going on a waiting list. Look forward to hearing from you, Daybreaks Staff

Hi Phil, I am pleased to say that Poppy has been rehomed by her wonderful foster family. Please don't be disheartened, we have so many beautiful Greyhounds looking for homes and your perfect hound is out there. We are so sorry to hear about Mysty.

Hi, I spoke with Kate today about the possibility of Poppy looking for her forever home and she was unsure whether Poppy would be staying with her foster family. We would love to have her having had to say goodbye to our Mysty girl tonight after adopting her 10 years ago. Would love to know if she will be available. Phil

Poppy’s confidence is slowly growing. She will sometimes take treats from my hand when I’m standing near her, but will always now take them if I’m sitting down. She is starting to play but only by herself - it’s too scary if we join in. She can now jump out of the car but not into it - she looks at me expectantly as if me lifting her in to the car is the way it should be done!
