Nuggett
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I have just had a report that Nugget, one of our beautiful black greyhounds escaped out of his garden at around 5pm this evening in the Handsworth Wood area. If you are local, could you please look out for him. He is a big friendly boy who has a collar with ID on, is chipped and of course tattooed. If you have any information please call me on 0121 782 7702.

Lottie (Penny)
I’m Homed
Lottie (she doesn't seem to recognise Penny) has been with us on her Xmas holidays for a couple of days now. She is a very,very sweet little girl, a little lively being so young and definitely inquisitive but with such a loving nature. She is eating really well and has been clean in the house (although a couple of accidents in the garage as we got to know each other!) She sleeps downstairs with Surprise with no problems and is fine with both of our labs (Roxy thinks she is the bees knees and loves to play!). Unusually perhaps for a greyhound she has shown no interest so far in jumping on the armchairs or sofa. She is such a joy and an absolute darling so I can imagine how hard it was to return her to kennels, but she so deserves her forever home xxx

Oh Max... this is such a shame and you must be feeling confused being back at Daybreaks. We've already 'cuddled' a beauty today sweetheart, but rest assured, you'll be getting our family electronic cuddle tomorrow gorgeous. Biggest of thought hugs are being wished your way beautiful boy. xxxx

Max
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Sadly Max has been returned today due to the family's extended working hours. He has been in a home since May 2014. They are very upset as Max was great with their daughter and they clearly loved him a lot. He has been stressing with being left for longer and we hope he will find a home very soon.

Oh my. Thank goodness that I had had a couple of glasses of wine by the time I read this whilst cooking dinner or I would have been on my way to the kennels on Christmas afternoon. I am such a sucker when it comes to a sad story, that is how I ended up with Willow and my old Buzz. Good luck sweetie. Xxx

Jed
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Well Jed is continuing to improve he is now sporting a lovely 'pink' bandage which is doing his manly image no favours! Unfortunately he seems to have acquired quite a liking for the cat food and the return to soft dog food is somewhat of a let down, he went into protest mode this morning also leading his partner in crime Lottie to come to the same view! I have a feeling they both may have a different opinion at tea time judging by the tummy rumbles!

So happy to see these special 3(Celt, Betty & our Star) all in lovely new homes, after the terrible life they had and the horrendous state they all came into Daybreaks in x

Celt
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Oh how lovely... the first night in their new home with someone close by seems to be an unspoken 'adoption rule'. You probably won't need to sleep on the sofa again though, as he'll soon make it his own bed! xxxx

Celt
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Celts first night was fine, such a beautiful boy. He cried every time I went upstairs though so I slept on the sofa! He's sleeping now and judging by his feet he's chasing rabbits! Xx
