    It’s taken me a while to post about Pearl as she has been very poorly following her spey since I picked her up from the vets last Monday. She stayed at mine overnight but the following morning she was panting a lot, had bright red gums and her legs kept cramping and going into spasm that she couldn’t stand. She was very dehydrated and therefore admitted and put straight on a drip. Blood tests revealed an acute kidney trauma. I transferred her to Willows where she was admitted straight to intensive care. Her creatinine levels have been erratic but she is slowly improving but is no longer in intensive care and remains stable at Willows. As you can imagine, our invoice at willows is now over £5,000 but she is worth every penny and thanks to all our supporters we are able to fund this. As a Trust it has now been agreed that every dog going in for full anaesthetic will have pre op bloods - this is something we normally just do for those over 7 years old.

    Rocky loved his trip to the park yesterday! He was very tired when he got back, ate his dinner and snuggled up in bed! Thanks you all so much. Xxx

    Took Rocky to Brueton Park yesterday, he travelled well in the car and settled in no time. Once we arrived he was keen to go and explore his new surroundings, he is a very inquisitive boy. He walked well on a loose lead when alone but he tends to be a bit strong when approached by other breeds. He is a little unsure on how to greet other dogs and can be a bit exuberant. He responded well to a firm 'No" and lots of praise when he behaved, as a result of this he was much calmer by the end of the walk when approached by other off lead dogs. He is very happy with other people and loves fuss and attention from them, he was fascinated by the coffee machine at the VW Coffee Shack and had a good lean on the owner. Whilst we enjoyed our coffee, Rocky spent his time watching the action on the Tennis courts. We were so proud of him by the end of our visit to the park and the progress he had made in such a short amount of time. Looking forward to taking him out again soon.

    At last! It was a little warmer today! :)) Beautiful Ellen, now called Izzy went home this morning. What a wonderful Christmas present for her. Xxx Rocky went out for a trip to the park with Kitty and her family. He had a great time and they said he was such a good boy! It must be his turn to find his forever home soon. Xxx Many thanks to our volunteers for all their help today with walking, grooming, teeth cleaning and health checks for our boys and girls. Xxx The award for best Christmas outfit today went to lovely Jag who came in for a nail clipping dressed in his fab red and green elf coat complete with bells! :)) What a handsome boy! Xxx We also had a visit from previous resident Ruby Rebel and his Dad, lovely to see them both. :)) Xxx We also had one brave girl who came in for a pamper...we did warm the room up first! Xxx Thanks so much to Jess for helping with feeding this afternoon. :)) Xxx

    On arrival at Daybreaks this morning my car thermometer said it was -8!!! Fortunately the residents were all toasty in their kennels, and although it looked quite festive with the extremely heavy frost resembling a covering of snow, I am not sure they appreciated me warbling Christmas carols along to Classic FM as I cleaned! The sun did warm things up a bit, but the morning walk was very bracing - I think the doggies were happy to get back their heated kennels, we were certainly happy to get our hands round a nice hot cup of coffee! Stay safe everyone and keep yourselves and your hounds warm. Angie x

    Kitty came home with me this afternoon. She travelled well and she’s found the HUGE crate we have for any (canine) visitors who like that sort of thing. She’s very quiet and didn’t fancy the dinner queue so she had two small bowls of food through the evening. She’s toileted outside with the gang last thing and gone to bed with a biscuit.
