Barney, you know Auntie Klaire doesn't mind if you make puddles, she'd rather you didn't but she understands that it happens. You were a good boy for your injection and she's really proud of the way you are settling into retirement! Xx

Sadly Rosie (Dyson) has been returned today due to health issues with one of her owners. She is a very pretty and friendly girl. I am sure it wont be long before a new home comes along. Xxx

I thought the Burns food had changed have to agree definitely smells different although so far no problems with my two, incidentally though I did have to return a bag when I opened it a large amount of the crumbs were fused together and it really didn't smell right.

Hope the Tails gets a thumbs up, it is so easy just turns up on the doorstep. But wasn't why I am here, on Bennys thread you mentioned Charlie Mouses pain have you tried Acupunture? Archive has a disc problem has had 5 weekly sessions so far just going to start moving them apart -it's not going to cure him but he is so much happier like a large puppy in the house. X

Today was a very scary day! Well for me anyway. I got my daddy to take me out for a walk at 1am. Normally my dad wouldn't mind but in this case it was raining and was very windy. I didn't mind the rain and the wind but I could tell my dad was freezing and soaked by the time we went around the park. I am still a bit disappointed about him keeping all my the dog food to himself yesterday so I suppose I could call that payback. Later on I went to Klaire house and made a nice puddle for her even though I went out just before we arrived. But she didn't mind, I hope... I also went to the vets for my injections. As soon as we arrived there I knew exactly where I was. I didn't want go in so I decided to stand in front of the door hoping my dad would give up waiting and take me back home but he didn't. So that meant I had to go in and have the injections that I was scared of. I could feel the needle go inside me but it didn't hurt that bad. After I had my injections the vet gave me a treat. Of course I didn't take it so my daddy gave it to me when we got home. More exciting days to come! Barney xxx

Interested to see the comments here. I have no point of reference as Layla is our first greyhound and we’re just coming to the end of our first bag of Burns, but I did think the poos are not as solid as I thought they’d be. I checked out tails.com but they came up with a kibble that was 21% protein, which put me off and made me wonder if it’s as tailor made as it claims to be. I’ve ordered a bag of the pet greyhound food that is advertised in the RGT information we were given when we collected her. Going to give it a try!

Hi Melysa & Sam, try Alpha Adult Maintenance (sporting dog). It's a kibble, containing 22% protein with chicken & rice. We buy it from Countrywide & it's around £14 per 15kg bag. Rosie & Brae have been eating this for nearly 3 years (mixed with their fish/meat options - their menu seems endless!!) as we found Burns resulted in a runny tum. Tash xx

Barney don't mind telling me he likes going for a walk at 1am with the pouring rain and strong winds. Not many other plonkers around walking around saying good boy at that time of a morning. ????
