Now here is a story to start the day. We had forgotten how bringing a new Grey into the fold changes your usual routine for a while. Our little girl Nina likes a walk before she or us have breakfast.So hubby slips on a pair of shorts and tee shirt and out of bed into the street almost. This morning Tony was with Nina at the bottom of the stairs ready for the off. So out they went. 20 mins later he was back. "That was quick I said" "I would have been longer" he said laughing but someone just told me I was still in my "Bart Simpson" pajamas !!! Fortunately the bottoms do not have an open fly or that could have been another story LOL. Tony what have you done to us !

Oh loveheart what a beautiful poem, I too am typing through the tears! I have only had one grey from daybreaks as jet is my first for but I can't begin to thank the daybreaks angels enough for letting us be the fortunate ones to take jet home. Hes truly amazing and brings us so much joy and along with his horse brother (jim) is my best friend! My husband knows where he is in the pecking order! So thank you daybreaks for giving us jet and keep up your fantastic work as all the hounds that have come through and are yet to come through, are truly blessed to have you by their side's fighting their corners xxx

Whilst waiting for everyone else to be ready for the walk this morning Winny decided she wanted to check out the pool, and boy oh boy did this cutiepie have fun, splashing and proceeding to give me a shower in the process... so wish I'd have had my camera on me to capture her as she was absolutely in her element! xxx

As you know I am limpet, mom and TC took me to see a man in blue (shudder) today. He thinks the problem is my toe and might be Auntie Rightus (will she bring me treats like my other aunties do?) I have to go back next week to see the man in blue (double shudder) he is going to look at my blood - think that sounds very boring for him, and I will see Ray who will look at my bones. Till then I have to have limited exercise :-(. Lubs to all, Florence xxx

I wrote this in 2010 dedicated to Ruth and all volunteers at Daybreaks RGT. I hope you all read it again, especially when you have a sad day and it's hard to cope. It is titled A story of love What would we be without you? You are our light in the darkness When others forsake us you are there Where would we go? Who would love us enough to care? You are there to ease our our pain When we are frightened and alone You calm our racing hearts. If we are old or ill you will not desert us You are with us at times when others find it too painful. Even though your heart is breaking to, you are strong for us And if "Rainbow Bridge" beckons We know you will show us the way, as we sleep before the journey begins You are our mother, our father, our friend, our salvation, and we love you. from all Greys everywhere Thanks guys.

So sad for you. We feel such pain when we loose a beautiful Grey.I always console myself with this saying I read from a dog rescue abroad "When I die let it be as a pet and loved", I think that is what all we Hound owners give to them when we re-home a Grey and Wilf I know was a well loved pet. Run free lovely boy x
