Saffy
I’m Homed
I am over the moon that Saffy is doing so well - first night and day - NO ACCIDENTS!!!!! She was left whilst the family went to work and clearly seems to have settled in to her new home so well - it was just what she was waiting for! She did manage to steal some bread yesterday and had a small accident but I am sure she has been forgiven! So happy for you Saffy xxxxxx

Thanks SO much Ramar - I am so grateful to you for agreeing to take him for a break. He is a beautiful boy and will definitely suit a home as an only 'child'. On Sunday we had cuddles in his kennel and he is so affectionate and loving x I will add the photo you sent me to his profile later x

I dont know who Ramar is but thank you very much for making time to look after my boy. He loves going out and about as you have found out. He is very food orientated so make sure you lock everything away!!!! I hope you all have a wonderful time together. Please give him hugs and kisses from us. We are so appreciative that he having an adventure. X

Henry
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Henry has come to stay with us for a few days for a change of scenery. He snuggled down In the back of the car for the 25 minute journey home, not hearing a peep out of him. Within a couple of hours of him exploring his new surroundings he had found himself a place to 'chill out' and take a nap. We went on an afternoon stroll by the river and around the estate, he was a dream on the lead, clearly enjoying the different sights and sounds. When we got back he was ready for his tea.......it didn't touch the sides!! He is so gentle and responsive, it is a real pleasure to have his company.

Henry
Over the Rainbow Bridge
We had the pleasure of meeting Henry a while back, he and our two had a good run round at the kennels. He is one super hound. My understanding at the time was that probably he would best as an only dog. So on occasions we have to do the right thing, and accept that as much as we love them, their needs must come before ours. So don't beat yourself up, he not yet be in his forever home, but he is in the second best place. Roy

Henry
Over the Rainbow Bridge
My sweet Henry, the last 6 days have been horrid without you and so I was really glad to see you today. As soon as you saw me you threw your arms around my neck kissing me all over. I was so worried you might ignore me as a punishment for having to take you back. Please, please know I have only done this for all our sakes. Mel is feeling much, much better and keeps sleeping in your bed! I will not give up hope that we can sort the problems out so that you can return to your rightful place in our family. Its my fault Henry, not yours. I should never have let all of us sleep together and as this is the main issue I'm afraid we would all have to learn to sleep independently. Time can help enormously when situations and feelings are raw. I know you don't understand why you are back in the kennels but whilst you are there make Mummy proud and show everyone what a well behaved brave soldier you are. Everyone there is there to help you Henry and all your kennel pals. When Mel has healed more I will bring him to see you. Ultimately, it will be up to Mel to forgive you and decide if he can move forward. I think you have a good chance if you give him lots of sniffs and eskimo kisses. However, as you know Archibald is not so forgiving and I know he has been winding you up a bit. Hes very sad that his time is more limited than others and he cant do what others do. I have to think of him also and I believe he needs peace and more of Mummy's love for himself in these final months. Try to understand it doesn't mean I love you any the less. I am trying to consider everyone in these difficult and sad times. I will come and see you later this week. I love you with all of my heart darling and that will never change. Xxxxxxx
