We really appreciate you clarifying that. It is so sad when we have to justify our practices after a negative and derogatory comment which had to be deleted had been made. We all strive to do the best for the dogs that are lucky enough to come to us, and this is never influenced by cost. It is a very sad situation that when you are so distraught over your much loved Bella-boo that your feelings could be disregarded purely to make an uneducated, ill informed political point scoring comment.

Just to clarify, the vets that did the operations on Coral were in Herefordshire. They have looked after the veterinary care for our greyhounds for 8 years (including the spaying of Ruby, the donor). They too are devastated at what has happened as they did everything they could to save her. She was a lovely dog who deserved a longer life, but it wasn't meant to be. They were great about the blood transfusion and cared for Ruby, saying she was a star. It was no-one's fault.

Cant wait for saturday sweetheart. Sorry we didnt have long today. I should have called but whilst you were at the vet I had lovely cuddles with everyone else. Little Josie was so affectionate & Tommy was doing his best to show me how gorgeous he is too. And as for noisy Nosey he is just adorable but sooo strong. I know you will be a brave boy when you go next week and no matter what the problem is, if there is one, just know that we all love you very much and nothing will stop you coming to live with us. We will have a chilled saturday evening with village walks and then if the weather is in our favour we will go to sutton park on sunday. Be a good boy until saturday. Collect you about 2pm. Auntie Danni is popping over to see Mel and you a bit later. Live you baby boy. Mummy, Mel & Archie xxxx

Hi Kate. Thanks for the info. I will give them a call. It would be great if they could come in on a regular basis and get as many hounds as possible to donate blood to help other greys. Maybe we can try and make sure that these tragic events could maybe be preventable in the future. Jo X

We're delighted to hear this news. We had the opportunity of spending some time with Borna at a recent roadshow and he was an absolute gem. We've talked about him a lot since then and are so pleased to hear that he's got his 'forever' home. In the short time we spent with him, he showed himself to be a fabulous boy and we're over the moon for you all. Mand & Stefano xxxx

Hi Stevie, Sarah & Willows Mum, the Pet Blood Bank are regular visitors to the kennels. The next date for pet dogs is Tuesday 15th September. For more information Please call them on 01509 232 222. They will be able to answer any questions and book appointments for your dogs to donate. The Pet Blood Bank is the only charity that provides a canine blood bank service for all veterinary practitioners across the UK. The team who visit the kennels are lovely and they adore the Dogs. Every Greyhound who donates receives a goody bag including a bandana, a toy and a "I'm a life saver" tag to wear on their collar. Most importantly they are given a full health check before they donate which can help pick up any important changes in their health. The whole process takes around 30-40 minutes and can ultimately help save the life of someone's beloved pet. Xxx

Thank you so much to Jess for being patient and helpful today when we brought our three Tibetan Spaniels in to see how they would get on with a Greyhound. Not only did they get on but we all fell in love with Borna! We are very excited to have him come and visit us at home for hopefully a very extended stay (FOREVER!).xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
