Today we saw the gorgeous Django come back from his Christmas foster break. He is heartbreakingly handsome but does need to go to a home with the company of another dog as he has been absolutely brilliant in foster. No surprise..... he will be coming home with me and fingers crossed for a viewing in the near future! The gorgeous Beryl who was sadly returned Boxing Day to our house and promptly went straight out to foster following an appeal on Facebook was officially signed up.... she is the opposite of Django and we think she prefers being an only princess!!! Most of you will know Jess one of our volunteers.... she finally became an official greyhound owner today and signed up her gorgeous new boy Koda. He is an absolute bundle of fun and has the cutest face. I am having a battle with the internet, printer and computer taking it in turns not to work so I may just forget the paperwork and go and cuddle an inmate.... there are plenty to choose from but bouncy Jen will probably be top of my list today. We had great fun in the sand run together earlier.... but then I do love the black and white ones!

It was so dark when I opened up this morning I had to check my watch just in case I was an hour early!! The doggies did not appreciate the dash between their lovely warm kennels and the feeding runs in the driving rain!! When I reached Bobbie's kennel It looked like an explosion had taken place - the stuffing from a pillow and 2 duvets was literally carpeting the bed and floor!!! She looked at me with such lovely eyes as if to say "I don't know how it happened, honest"!!! Jen, who is a very lively little girl, absolutely hates being shut up in her kennel, so after we were finished feeding & cleaning, Ruth let her out for a run round the kennels (gates securely latched!). She thoroughly enjoyed exploring every corner of the kennels, but especially loved her play time in the sand run. There is lots in the diary for the rest of the weekend, so keep fingers crossed for some red or green signs - we have so many lovely residents deserving of their very own home. Angie xx

Thanks to Angie for opening up today, and to Chris, Karla, Matthew and Suzi for all their help and hard work. We had two lovely new arrivals today, Magic a boy and Bobbie (she is a girl and we were told her pet name was Bobs)!! When she was dropped off her trainer called her Bobbie, so Bobbie it is. She is Kate's Crackers sister and also Peanut and Coopers trainer. My two instantly recognized him, it was lovely to see that they recognized him and were happy to see him!!

Kitty
I’m Homed
Kitty really is coming on in leaps and bounds now. She’s now sort of eating with the rest of the gang - I’ve used a stairgate to create a safe place for her to eat at the end of our hall. So sort or with the gang but still having space to eat on her own without being bothered by others asking ‘are you gonna leave that?’(the answer now is ‘no’). She’s still emptying the toy box and gradually transfers toys to her den - or takes them up the garden and drops them. She now takes treats from my hand and comes up for a fuss. Things can still freak her and she shoots back in the crate but now she gets over it sooner and comes back out to socialise. I think she’ll still retreat back into her shell when she’s rehomed but with time and space to regain her confidence she’ll reward her people with her playfulness and love - as we are beginning to see.
