A big cuddle for Coffey tonight. He is such a happy boy and has gone out for the weekend for a break from the kennels with our good friend Liz and her lovely Greyhound Polly. 🙂 Xxx

Oh my goodness Carol, hope you are ok and that nothing is broken. Tess sounds just like our Shane was - we said he wouldn't come upstairs, but the first 2 nights home he was so distressed and stressed, even chewing the skirting board and throwing himself against the door to get to us! We took him upstairs, and he slept happily at the side of our bed - no disturbances, never tried to get on our bed, he just needed the reassurance that someone was close by. It never caused us a problem, and was actually quite nice to have his presence quietly snoring away - and such a lovely face to wake up to in the morning! Tess has had a huge transition from kennels to home life, and just needs time to adjust, learn that she is safe and secure, and build her confidence. Angie x

I have good news & bad news...the good news is-Tess took residence in our room last night-wasn't interested in the bed on the landing but she slept soundly by the side of our bed and seems very content this morning 😉 However, the bad news is-I am typing this in A&E waiting for an X-ray! I slipped getting the washing in last night & passed out this morning when I put weight on my foot:( fingers crossed there's nothing broken!

Thanks for the advice. We tried the last thing we hadn't yet done-use a radio during the night. Started off ok but then Teal got upset again. I ended up letting her have the sofa to herself which helped. Tess is such a lovely dog and has been such a great addition to our family that I don't like the idea of her being anxious at night. The main reason we've not wanted pets upstairs is so that there's no disruption to our children's sleep. However I've discussed it with my other half and we've now set up a bed for Teal on our landing - wish us luck for tonight! Thank you so much Kate for being able to give me your listening ear this morning...really appreciated it and we're so lucky to have the benefit of your experience and support. We're willing to do whatever it takes to ensure Tess is happy.

This little girl arrived today while we were at the kennels. She is so very, very sweet and affectionate. Stood very patiently while she was given a bath in the warm sunshine. A real cutie. xx

Lovely Gracie, if I was going to sneak a hound home with me today it would have been you, walked nicely after a bit of skipping about, once she settled she didn't pull at all. Don't think you will be waiting long for your forever home sweetie xx
