Welcome to Daybreaks Talk
Welcome to the Comments Page! Here, you’ll find a chronological collection of all the comments shared by our community about the greyhounds looking for their forever homes, our events, and other updates. It’s a wonderful space to see what others are saying, share your thoughts, and be part of the conversation as we work together to find loving families for these amazing dogs.
This page also highlights the incredible efforts of our dedicated volunteers, whose love and commitment make everything we do possible. From caring for the dogs to organizing events and fostering a supportive community, our volunteers are at the heart of Daybreaks. Their passion and hard work ensure that every greyhound receives the attention, care, and second chance they deserve.

Poppy
I’m Homed
I took Poppy to Fivelands yesterday for a investigational laparotomy and biopsies of her liver and spleen. It was a worrying day waiting for news but I collected her yesterday late afternoon (after someone had crashed into my car on the way to the vets) to find a brave bright little girl. This morning she has eaten well and is extremely spritely considering what she went through yesterday and we will keep our fingers crossed for the results. I am so desperately grateful to everyone who has made a donation towards Poppy's care from my recent appeal through the Grapevine newsletter. The kindness, care and consideration to help Poppy and every grey that comes to us is so very much appreciated.

Happy Gotcha day to Oscar. Just a walk round the room with you at Wednesday training brightens up my day. You are a lovely lad and it's obvious how much you are loved by your mom! X

Henry
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Ramar Don't know who you are. But from Henrys posts I just know he's having a fabulous time and thank you for giving him the support that he needs and deserves. Being the only dog I am sure is the way forward. If we didn't have the two boys his paws wouldn't touch the ground, he would be here sorting us out. Once again thank you Roy Cant put Michelle even though this is one special boy that as found his way into her heart ! she hates me posting under her account, but I cant be asked to set up my own.

Chappy
I’m Homed
Chappy has been a busy lad today. This morning he travelled with Meg to the Stratford Walk and from there he went up to the Melbicks awareness. Throughout the day he has behaved as a perfect gentleman. He loves all other dogs of any breed. Walks well on the lead and travels perfectly in the car. He is a cautious dog when meeting people he doesnt know but extremely affectionate in a quiet understated way once he knows you. He can at times seem slightly daunted by very small children. He will fit perfectly into a family with other dogs( no cats). I do hope he wont have to wait too long for his forever home as he is one of those quiet dogs who can sometimes get overlooked which would be such a shame as he is going to make a wonderful companion for some lucky person or family.
