Ruth, our hearts break with yours each time one of your precious babies leave for the Bridge. To have them always near you at the kennels is lovely. xxxx

Georgie, every Sunday I pop out on my own on the quiet to the garden at Daybreaks and pay my respects to such an amazing old girl. I say thank you and remind all the Boswell Greys how much you are missed. You will never be forgotten... xx

All the Boswell greys are not only in the Boswell household hearts but in all our hearts always at Daybreaks. Without Tara Daybreaks wouldn't exist. You do a fantastic job and that's from all the volunteers. x

Over the Rainbow Bridge
Just over a month has passed since I lost my precious Wispa. I miss her so much I ache. She is buried at the kennels along with the ashes of Tara, Holly, Shrew, Jess, Max, Basil, Annie, Freckles, Maggie and Georgie so they will always be close to me in the work I do at Daybreaks. Wonderful happy memories remain.....

Norah
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Lorraine. Lola is awful with fireworks and getting worse as she gets older too. We use essential oils to help her when things get bad round here. Specifically we use Valerian, Hemp and Hops for calming, though it's the Valerian we think she takes most. We just offer a sniff of the bottles and then place them nearby her. It seems to help Lola relax and as long as she's in a cosy place she copes better than without them. Paul knows more than me - he went on a workshop with Caroline Ingraham (Google her and you'll see what she does), if you've not got his number then Ruth and Kate have it or his ad will be in an old Grapevine if you have one. He'd be happy to talk to you I'm sure. Linda x PS we hear you met our neighbours in the park over Christmas.

Max
Over the Rainbow Bridge
What a very gorgeous boy Max is. We had a very wet and windy walk this morning and although he was a bit jumpy on the lead to start with (mind you, they all were - think the wind was freaking them out!) he soon settled and walked well. He was reluctant to go back into his kennel and refused his breakfast so is obviously feeling a little down at the moment. He loves cuddles and is very nice natured. I see he has now been fostered which is great. Hope he gets on well. xx

Carla
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Just in that nice calm moment before bed Carrie is on the quilts on the floor and Carla is on what I think was once my bed and being the obsessive type of person I am , Ive just read back on her history again on here and just thought I say Im am totally NOT ashamed to admit that I was pretending that the cuddly Bunny Wabiit that I brought her for christmas was another puppy for her , she's so gentle and loving , Ive recently brought her a pink blizzard coat and both my girls now have hats (Carlas is Pink and Carrie to suit her personality has a Rasta hat ) and the Hats have become quite popular with the people we meet . My house is one huge kennel , littered with bones and toys and its never felt more like a home... Happy New Year

Belle got fed up of waiting for her kennel to be cleaned this morning...she decided to pull the washing down off the side of the run to sit on until we had finished! She looked very comfy! Xxx
