I just noticed she is Marwood Diva! I am really thrilled she will soon have a sofa of her own. Her sister (now named Hope as she was called Mar at Dogs Trust and I found her racing name on Greyhound history FB site) has brought me a lot of joy!

If she is Marwood Diva, she is the sister of my retired girl Marwood Lark. I think my girl was probably the diva of the litter though! It's their birthday on Saturday. Happy Birthday Diva and happy retirement.

River

Hi, my name is Mary! I'm starting my "Animal Management course" in September. I offered to help volunteer today for a few hours. On behalf of Ruth I'm appealing for an urgent foster home for River. His owner has gone into hospital as an emergency - if you think you can help please call the kennels on 0121 782 7702. Thank you - Have a nice day 🙂

Molly

Molly is a shy but very lovely little girl. She went in the small part of the sand run with a visiting Greyhound today and was so happy to follow her around. Having a friend with her gave her such confidence and it was great to see her relaxing and playing. Xxx Molly would love a home with another dog who she could share her life with. Xxx

A busy day, this morning lovely Topsy and her family came to find a friend for her. She met several of our residents and liked all of them! Eventually it was Topsy who decided Cassie was the one for her. :)) This afternoon we had another viewing which resulted in seeing gorgeous Diva Reserved. Xxx Thanks to Matt and the young people he supports for carrying out all the health checks today and helping to walk the dogs. We are so grateful to all of our volunteers for their help today. Xxx When I came to leave the kennels tonight...I couldn't find my Skip anywhere! I knew he couldn't have escaped and was there somewhere. I went around opening the kennels, the kitchen, the treatment room but no sign. When I unlocked the office I eventually found him on the bed under the desk, totally oblivious I was looking for him! :)) Bless him. Xxx

Prince
I’m Homed
Very sadly due to a change of personal circumstances for the couple who adopted them, Prince and Bocko have been returned to the kennels today. The couple are devastated to have had to make this decision. Prince is a big lad and sometimes strong on the lead. He is house trained. Both boys are adorable. We are very sad for all concerned. Xxx

Thanks to everyone for their help today. It was a little cooler so all the inmates had both morning and afternoon walks. It did get a little warmer as the day went on but the dogs were kept cool. We have a few real characters in at the moment, they are really cheeky and make us smile. Zavi and Tommy trying to pull items though the feeding run bars, Con with his 'I'm not coming out of my Kennel without a belly rub'. Hoping to see some red and green signs this week, especially for Cristina. Xx
