Brilliant update on Benny, I must admit he has been on my mind all day, wondering how he is getting along, but he seems to be settling very well considering all he has been through. I'm so pleased that Benny has found his perfect forever home, be happy Benny xxxxxxxx

Here’s today’s post on mees Facebook page Luv Maisie Grey Xx Now we are all fed and watered I can answer your anxious question. Well we have had a good day. Everyone slept well once everybody had decided which bed they wanted to sleep in! Benny roused once, about 1.00am, and I let him go out in case he wanted a pee. He did do one and, of course I praised him, gave him a reward and we then returned to bed. He slept right through then, part in a roach position, until my son, Stephen, got up for work at 6.30am. Benny obviously has to get used to our routine, what to take notice of and what not, as I get up 20mins later. This morning we went to a secure dog field 5mins away, for 30mins. Travelled in car altogether well. Boy did he enjoy his zoomies. He raced all over the field, round and round. Beau and Honey had a job to keep up with him Lol! Altogether we have had a good day. Still have to keep an eye on the scent marking indoors, but we shall get there, when he finally realised this is home for keeps. This will take time, as he has already known a home for short time, then gone back to Daybreaks. You most definitely are not having him back again!! We are going to the Vets tomorrow to get him registered with them, and joined up to their Pet Health Club they have. He is such a dear and Beau, Honey and Benny seem to be getting along with each other, and Benny is beginning to follow them around and keep an eye on what they do. Will keep you updated over the next week or two to let you know how we are progressing with each new adventure

I think that Fizzy is one of my favourites at the moment. Always enjoys a walk and loves a bit of fuss.

Fizzy has today spent the morning in Brueton Park where she proved to be a lovely well behaved girl who loved meeting the many other breeds of dogs who were out and about in the park. There were no problems whatsoever even meeting a very excitable toy poodle which Fizzy got excited with also but no aggression at all. All other 'meet and greets' were perfect. She travels well in the car and walks well on the lead. A lovely girl who is certainly ready for that home of her own to arrive.

Barney has tried opening the mail now for the last couple of days. He knows he is in charge of the house and get away with quite a lot of things. He goes the way he wants to go when going for his walks and goes to the car when he fancies a drive somewhere. We know who the man of the house is. He has us all wrapped around his little paws. He really is 1 of the family and we all love him to bits.

Wees just got this message posted on mees Facebook page.. Benny has arrived and we are in the process of settling in. He, Beau and Honey seem to have accepted each other, so far. He has peed on just about every plant, shrub and upright that he can find. Definitely marking his territory!! I've also caught him doing it indoors, but put him straight out, then praised when peed again. This is obviously going to be work in progress, as obviously he is quite stressed. He has found my son's bed!! Oh and has sorted out where the treats are kept!! Will keep you up-to-date with how he settles. He loves a tummy rub Lol! ???????????????? Luvs Maisie
