Good Luck Ode, off to live in Cornwall with Kate Goodman's sister (who lives opposite Tracey Hayden in France). Thanks to the pair of you for paying for our stand at the Market Bosworth Show, where you are are on the show committee. Duncan and myself will see you during the summer when we travel to Cornwall to see Dunc's brother. xxxx

Max
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Sarah. Thank you for the update. I am just glad he is in a nice foster home as he had got so sad in the kennels even though he was looked after and loved. He just really loves human company and to be close to people. He has a very cheeky side to him as I'm sure you are finding out and a tongue that has a life of it's own! Glad he is settled with you and being a good boy. Will look forward to updates. Xx

Tinker (Tango)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Tango, you sound so much like Lilah. She was very scared of traffic when she first came to us six months ago. However she has progressed so well during that time and can now cope with cars and lorries passing by. She does still have her moments (don't we all) but with encouragement and patience she is learning to trust. So many people love greyhounds and want to help; the other day Lilah and I were out walking and she was spooked by a dust cart. The driver saw that she was unsettled and switched off the engine to let us pass - how kind was that. I am sure that when you find your special home Tango, everyone will help you to gradually find your way and you will blossom, just like Lilah. In the meantime you have the love and care of Daybreaks. Wishing you a new home soon pretty girl. x

Sorry helenanddave that you will miss Max tomorrow but I have passed on your love and hugs to him xx Can't tell you how lovely he is as anyone that has met him knows that already. However he is the perfect house guest, his character is coming out and he is a bouncy happy boy and he just joins in with our two other boys. He loves snuggles has found the sofa and our bed already, he is currently snuggled up to me on the settee - all good (apart from little Jo getting the hump that he is in her place) she has forgiven him tho xxxx

Jed
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Well Jed is keeping to his accident prone career, he managed to fall out of the car when we got home from Hatton, I think Lottie stepped on his lead as he was leaving the car! Lottie also seems to be learning from the master she managed to put her leg down the gap between the seats, so I have one dog limping on his left leg and another limping on her right. Hopefully they will be sound before their photo shoot on Sunday!! Never a dull moment!

Hi Max. Glad to see you are in a foster home and have some friends to play with. You are a loving hound and love nothing better than a comfy bed/sofa and lots of fuss. Guess I won't see you at the kennels on Wednesday but will be thinking about you. Love and hugs beautiful. Xx

Thanks Kate. Poor Twiggy. Pity we can't do a Fraulein Maria & sing a greyhound favourite things. Although with my voice the thunder would probably be less scarey. Looks like the weather is going to be cooler next week. See you soon xx

Just a quick update on this fantastic boy - he came home with us today, he didn't want to leave Ruth but gave him the choice between Ruth and a pigs ear, so he quickly jumped into the car lol ! He has met and was not phased by our three and likewise they were ok with him too. He had his walk, his tea and is now sparked out and settled. We are fostering this awesome boy for a few days but if anyone wants to meet him will be happy to bring him to kennels etc

Kudu (Marti)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I met Marti today and took him on his walk. He was quite a strong lad when I first got out of the kennel and had been leaping all over the place when I was trying to put his lead on. He was a little excited I think. Once walking, he was fine but did start pulling a little bit when we all went on a slightly extended walk to normal - again, excitement I think. He was certainly not uncontrollable, just choking himself a bit. He was also interested in the game at the rugby club - I think he might like to chase around after a ball. Lovely happy boy x J
