Sheila has a new name - Layla. I am happy to report that we have had a fabulous first day with her. She has explored the house, played in the garden chasing a ball AND bringing it back (someone told me greyhounds don't do that- they've obviously never met her). She's been on two good walks and behaved impeccably, even when she met a little dog. Showed some interest in our evening meal but we were firm with her and she responded really well, going off to lie down in the living room when she realised she wasn't getting any of our food! Not sure what the night will be like - she is very people oriented and wants to be with us all the time - but the early signs are good. We are all so happy. Thank you to everyone at Daybreaks x

Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate the lovely thoughts. They really do take a piece with you when they go. I so wanted him to reach 13 as it felt like such a huge milestone but he deteriorated so fast there was nothing to be done. My only consolation is that his condition went down once we were at the vets so it wasn't overnight or when we were out. He wasn't alone or like that for hours. Once they get to a certain age that's always my biggest fear - that something catastrophic will happen and we won't know or be there to help. We miss him like crazy.
