Fizzy
I’m Homed
We took Fizzy home with us today to see if she might be our new hound having recently lost our lovely Silla. She is a very friendly girl, and very intelligent. She is curious about everything around her. Loved playing with all of our dog toys, also a bit of a thief with lots of other items! Was on the go all day with us, and we feel she would probably benefit from a home where people are around in the day more than us and maybe where she is not the only hound. She travelled well in the car, and walked nicely on the lead. we saw a Labrador across the road with no problems. Fizzy will make someone a super pet. We wish her lots of luck xx

It sounds like Wilson is much better off at Daybreaks until he finds a caring home. How on earth a majestic hound like him can be neglected is beyond me but he’ll soon be sorted I’m sure.

Mary is a very loveable little hound - very friendly and full of beans. Even Mr Grumpy Pants Casey let her jump all over him without complaint. Would fit perfectly in with a family.

Very sad to see Jonny back. He came out for a walk with Casey this afternoon and was a pleasure to be with as ever.

As everyone has said feel so for this boy, he is our Archives big brother. He has been treated like a car traded in when a bit clanky. So wish we could find the space but sadly don't feel we can. Xxx

This boy was the first thing I thought about this morning, I hope he's OK and had a good first night. I'm sure he will be all snuggled out by the end of today, everybody's concern for him is very heartwarming, there are still some lovely caring people in this world and I hope Wilson soon finds his forever loving home, bless him. Big kisses and cuddles from our family to you. Xxxxxxxx

How awful I've just seen this on Facebook and come straight on here. Poor boy. If I had ways and means I would over like a shot to have as he would be perfect for us. I can't believe how someone could return a dog who has been with them for such a long time and all because they "didn't have time to feed him" I can't believe that was their excuse

I thought same thing.. an underlying condition. But simply cannot get my head around how you could abandon a family member you have looked after for 8 yrs.This is heart rending, I would love to come & scoop him up. But my very special boy Bunnie is only just settling in.

Poor Wilson, again if he was cat friendly I would have tried to twist my husband's arm! You'll find a loving home you so deserve very soon I'm sure. And too true jo, what are these people on about no time to feed him, jet just eats when mommy and daddy do, correction eats with mommy and daddy as shares our food at the table...! Sending you big hugs tonight xxx

I know I've already commented on your arrival at Daybreaks wonderful Wilson, but I haven't stopped thinking about you since seeing your beautiful face earlier. You've already had 16 cuddles today matey and me thinks you'll be getting even more hooman snuggles over the weekend, as not all us 2 legged creatures are bad uns! We have 2 gorgeous greys who 'rule the roost' otherwise we'd have been up to smuggle you into the car by now; but believe me that before too long you will be roaching on your own comfy sofa and be treated like the little prince you are. Night night poppet xxxx

I too am totally devastated for Wilson. I just can't understand how anyone can return a dog that has been a member of the family for so long and at a point when he needs them in his twilight years. Totally beyond comprehension. We would have taken him like a shot if one of our two had been more accommodating, but Amber does not like other dogs, sadly. I so hope someone out there can help. Good luck Wilson xxx

Terribly sad, but I'm sure this handsome boy will get more cuddles and treats than any other Grey this weekend. I might even pop in this weekend to give him some myself.

I think that this should be shared far and wide to stop these people homing another younger grey from elsewhere. Shame on them. Let's make these people known to all rehoming centres, not only greyhound ones so they cannot treat another hound like this. My blood is boiling the more I think of this poor boy. Better off at Daybreaks than with those terrible people, at least will be loved and cared for and Fed. Oh by the way it took me 5 minutes to feed my 4 greys tonight. Xxx

Devastated for this poor boy and as usual I am in tears. What is wrong with these people? How can they think it's o.k. to treat Wilson like this? He must be feeling very confused but I bet he is relieved now that he is safe and well fed at Daybreaks!
