Winny
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Ruth's advice re Winnie is as usual spot on. She is really still a puppy learning the ropes and has a lot of energy no doubt.As no spring chicken myself and having had 7 Greys in my life I can definitely say I always look at the "oldies" first when re-homing (maybe I relate to their needs better LOL) and know that once settled in they attune to my way of life which is laid back !(too much at times) I do feel Ruth slipped up with Finn though, he would be much happier if she had re-homed him in a food factory!!!!! only joking, love him to bits and he loves me especially at mealtimes LOL

Winny
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Sadly Winnie has been returned this morning. Her owner is understandably upset at returning her but is frightened that she may be pulled over as she can be very strong on lead at times. She has been brilliant in the house, no chewing, but can be excitable. She does suffer with sleep aggression. She was allowed on her owners bed which caused problems so we would highly recommend she sleeps separately and with no young children. She does respond very well to commands however being 2, she has a spring in her step so needs a confident and firm handler. She eats well and is 99% house trained and has been left for around 3 hours with no problems. Due to her youth and exuberance we need to find a fun loving home for her!

We need a lovely home for this lovely girls as soon as possible please! She hasn't got much of an appetite at the moment and we need her to put some weight on! She is a very friendly and sweet girl. There must be someone who has a little space on their sofa for her! Xxx

2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
What a very unusual Saturday! It was so quiet this afternoon...can't think why! 🙂 Sara kept us informed of the score; the doggies were far more interested in their dinners than watching a ball they couldn't play with being kicked around! :))) We managed to do two walks as it clouded over this afternoon and the cool coats did their job. We only have one more cool coat left for sale, they were very popular today! We had a visit from Seren this morning. She looked very happy and relaxed with her new family. Came into the office and made herself comfy in the dog bed. 🙂 She was even happier to leave with a pigs ear! Xx Jess had a client for a pamper Who was not impressed with having her nails cut. Bless her. Let's hope Barney is celebrating with his family again next Wednesday evening! :)) Xxxx

I’m not really sure what is happening but I do know it’s something to be excited about. Apparently there is a team called ‘England’ which I need to support. They must have put the ball in the net or something because my family got very excited. Barney Xx

Well, since Wednesday I have felt that my lifeline had been cut! Our internet went down and we only just have it back. So I have not been able to post or like comments, so I like all the comments and the fab news that the twins and Mandy are reserved. Well done sweeties. I would also like to thank Kate for messaging me after my 1st full 'proper' day on Wednesday, so very kind and lovely of her. Thanks to Denise and Ruth for all their help and support, really means a lot. Xxx

A big cuddle for Kado tonight. He is a delightful lad, so friendly and loves lots of hugs. He met a cocker Spaniel earlier this week and was perfect with her. Fingers crossed he won't have to wait too long for his forever home. Xxx

Horse
Over the Rainbow Bridge
How can anyone resist this lad, Finn was once the long stayer and although I was not really ready for another Grey after loosing my lovely boy Ollie (formally Vinnie) We decided to take up Ruth's offer to foster him and give him a chance and where assured if it didn't work out she would have no problem taking him back and she would at the very least be able to tell other people who saw him how he was in a home and how he got on with Nina. The rest of the story is history !!! Now proud to be a FFP. Horse I hope you race into someone's heart soon, they will never regret it I am surex

Horse
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Mr Horse and I had a lovely time in the run this morning. He thoroughly enjoyed playing with the toys, giving them a huge shake then throwing them up in the air and jumping up to catch them!! This oh so happy boy is desperate to be out in the big wide world discovering what life is all about. He has been with us for a long time now, I really hope it is his turn to find his own forever sofa very soon. xx

I love this dainty little girl. We had a lovely time in the run this morning, and then she stood beautifully to be groomed this afternoon. She really enjoyed being brushed, in fact, she was doing a very good Greyhound lean and almost fell over when I moved!! Fingers crossed for you my sweetie. xx
