Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
It was destined to be a very quiet day for volunteers today, with Angie now only in in the morning (she deals with the microchip registration and emails which she can do at home) and Chris on holiday it would have left myself and Karla our college placement student on our own for the rest of the day. Denise very kindly offered to come in for the day, so very kind of her. I had a nice surprise when Jess arrived as she couldn't come in tomorrow and then Liz called to ask if she could come in and do morning walks. Needless to say I accepted her offer!! This afternoon Matthew and Karla took the dogs one by one into the sand run. So very grateful to everyone who came and helped today. X Our new arrivals are gorgeous, Sky who arrived yesterday has already gone out to see what she thinks of a home life, hoping all goes well.

Josh had his x-ray yesterday at Fivelands vets. The results came out clear. There is nothing they could see. They agreed that the proprioception is slow/delayed. Next stop is Wendy Lymer the Chiropractor who I will contact today to make an appointment.

Alex came in for a bath this afternoon. He looks absolutely wonderful and as usual he had a very waggy tail. :)) Xxx Even having a bath didn't dampen his spirits! His beautiful sister Flo came along to have her nails clipped....she wasn't very impressed! :)) Xxx

It was just Mary and myself first thing this morning. Our wonderful Yvonne has broken her wrist!! Sending her lots of love and best wishes for a speedy recovery from us all. Xxxxx Thankfully Diane arrived early for walks and helped with the cleaning of kennels. Then Jean arrived and cleaned the runs for us and Anne did the washing up! So it was a real team effort! :)) The day continued to be very busy, a bathing, nail clippings health checks and three new arrivals! Sully arrived first a very handsome lad followed shortly afterwards by pretty girls Sky and Peril. Xxx Thanks so much to Shirley and Mary for bathing them and to the lads Richard, Declan and James for taking the boys and girls for afternoon walks. Xxx So very grateful to everyone for your help. Xxx Xxx

Well I am very proud of myself tonight! My husband is doing the 'tough mudder' run on Sunday and I thought I'd add to his pressure by telling him he's now doing it for Daybreaks in jet's memory (isn't he glad he married me?!) I'm totally useless with computers but have managed to do a just giving page tonight so very pleased with myself! Not sure how much we'll get but hang on Daybreaks we're trying! Xxx

Rigsby is 13 today! I’ve been looking at his photos from his time in the kennels and he looks so different now with his grey face…but still very handsome and distinguished! He is growing more and more loving with age and we love him hugely xxx
