PRAYER FOR EOGHAN - RIP My darling grandson, Every time I think my heart can't break any more but if that is the case then why oh why does the grief and pain rip through my body. I give thanks to Alan and God for allowing you to spend your final 21 months with your biological family. I am so very sorry for the circumstances that took you from us but I give thanks for the nearly 12 years that you had. May God stay his hand over thee and guide thee to Daddy Melly and Daddy Alan and may you find peace amongst the fields of gold until such time as we can all meet again. I love you Eoghan and will miss your singing. With all my love Granny. xxxxxxx

I had a lovely telephone call today to update me on how Archie is doing, one week into his retirement home! He is going on 4 walks a day, has made friends with the sheep and he has a great routine - especially tummy tickles each morning! I am over the moon that he has settled so well, after he spent so long here being overlooked at Daybreaks. Well done Archie! So proud of you x

My name is Sue and I have just started volunteering at Daybreaks Trust having seen an appeal by Ruth on Next Door. Although I do not have a Greyhound myself I am a real animal lover. I have a rescue German Shepherd cross Collie dog called Chester who is 12 years old and two rescue cats Fizz and Pepsi who are both 17. I live in Monkspath with my husband Dave and two children Jake(26) and Justine (21). I am looking forward to helping find lovely new homes for all of the beautiful Greyhounds who find themselves here.

Oh Duque - I love your ears! They remind me of Snip’s when we first had her (she holds them totally upright now instead of over her forehead!). You look adorable xx

Arthur

Arthur paid his first visit to Elmdon Park today..... his best friend Teddy who he brought to Daybreaks with him from racing kennels stayed behind but he was very pleased to see him when we returned from the park !!!!!! Arthur settled in the car and travelled quietly. He met other breeds without any reaction whatsoever He also enjoyed the attention of a very small boy who loved stroking him. Arthur is a very well behaved affectionate boy who should be able to live with other dogs if required Hopefully that future home will arrive soon for him and of course his Teddy !!

My first day back at the kennels after a week on holiday and it was really cold! 🙂 I only went to Devon but it seemed much warmer there! :)) Skip, Lyra and Cracker had a great time, we all had post holiday blues yesterday. We missed our walks by the sea! Xxx In the nicest possible way it was great to NOT see Zavi or Tommy in their kennels...Brilliant to see they have both gone off to their new homes. Xxx We had a new arrival this morning, beautiful Mia and we have a new lad arriving tomorrow. Xxx We have three new students with us on Mondays, hoping they enjoy their time with us over the next few months. :)) Thanks so much to all our volunteers today, our boys and girls are lucky to have so many lovely people who are very happy to be at their beck and call! Xxx

I met gorgeous Arthur today, what a super gentle lad. I was told he came in with his own teddy, his Trainer asked if we could make sure he takes it with him to his new home. 🙂 Xxx

What a whirlwind day little Mia has had today! She arrived around breakfast time this morning full of beans! :)) Her Trainer said she had already eaten but was sure she would happily accept a second breakfast...which she did! :)) She made us laugh when we trying to take her photo for the website; she was stalking the stone statue of a Greyhound in our memorial garden. :))) She enjoyed her walk this afternoon and loved her dinner too... AND now she is reserved! Xxx
