Thank you so much to everyone who brought in tins of fish, meat and lots of treats for the lovely Daybreaks residents during the Christmas period...Many thanks also for the chocolates, biscuits and cakes very kindly bought for the volunteers...they have helped brighten up some of the very wet and windy days we have had recently! They are all very much appreciated. 🙂 Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year...lots of love from Kate, Twiggy and Skip. Xxx

Max update. Will not do stairs, does not do sofa (so far). Tried to take him up to bed last night. No chance, not even with a lead. So went to bed left him on his bed downstairs. He whined a couple of times so down I came with pillow and quilt. Not a sound from him then all night. This morning he and the gang had cornflakes with warm milk and water. That soon disappeared. Went to work and my son came and checked on him a couple of times and he was fine. Just finished the same dinner as last night but with extra dried food in. Left a very small amount. So am very pleased with him. Will keep the updates coming. Oh and clean in the house so far. X

Thanks Kate. So far he is being golden. Don't want to speak too soon but has still not tried the stairs. Would like to take his bed up tonight as the others sleep upstairs and he may be settled for his first night.

I unfortunately spoke too soon have a very poorly Jed. It would appear that his lameness was not as first thought a corn but has now been isolated to his back lumbar sacral and could be an old racing injury. At the moment he is non weight bearing on his left hind, dosed up on a pain killer which has sent him on some sort of 'trip' he is completely spaced out and anti inflammatory's. If no improvement then an X-ray next week. Really worried about my lad.

So pleased to say Max came home and I put his bed down by the Christmas tree. After having a big wee in both the front and back garden he just plonked himself down on his bed. He has just demolished a huge bowl of dinner, Skinners with pasta and minced beef. Nothing left at all. Also had treats and biscuits. Now just the night to see what he is like as he has not even attempted the stairs yet, let's see how it goes.
