Harry

Thank you so much jax for your comments. I was so sorry to have to ask you but I hope this has helped explain the situation more with Harry for those following him. It is an extremely sad situation, and those who have been faced with having to return a dog due to circumstances beyond their control will know how difficult and emotional it is. We are always here to support those who return a dog for genuine reasons and give as much information as possible about the returnee to help them find the right home. Harry is learning to cope much better with all the new people he meets at the kennels and I know the right home is out there for him, however long it takes. Until then, we have the pleasure of being there for him.

Hello everyone, I have had a great day. Mom & Dad took me to Daybreaks new run, my friend Dolly came with her mom and boys and it was great fun running and playing with the toys . Not so keen on the bus journey though but we was good girls and behaved ourselves. We got home just in time for our sarnies and a treat or 2 before Dolly went home. Then it was a long snooze for me. Mom said we can go again as we was so good there. love Tess xxx

Harry
I’m Homed
Hi again. Just to reassure all involved in Harry's care. We did bring him back on one occasion during the early days due to Harry's anxiety issues. His past has caused damage to his faith in human kind unfortunately. However once we realised how much we loved him we were fully committed to going some way to putting some of that faith back. I think we achieved this and from what was an extremely anxious dog Harry became a fun loving and characterful dog with his human keepers. I am not saying we righted all the wrongs done to him but we gained his trust and his affection 10 fold. Again I cannot even tell people how devastating giving him up has been and if there was a way I could take care of him i would be there at the crack of dawn tommorow to collect him and bring him home.

Charlie (aka Billy Bob)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
This boy is simply adorable and so laid back. At Lyndon Church Summer Extravaganza he took everything in his stride. He had some lovely cuddles with both adults and little children.....he didn't mind as long as they fussed him! He jumped straight in the van and travelled the short distance to and from the kennels so well with his friend Spritz. I can't help thinking he will make someone a fantastic pet and he's not one of the enormous boys either, so come on folks.....come and take a look at this handsome lad! Billy Bob.... I had to use the 'ladies first' rule so Spritz had my cuddle today....I promise you'll have it tomorrow xx

Harry
I’m Homed
Hi all. I am Harry's previous owner. Yes Harry has had his problems over the past 4 years we have owned him but only to the outside world. With us and within his own environment Harry has been a lamb. He is a very anxious dog and I can only say that his previous history has been the cause of this. We love Harry to bits and would never have parted with him if circumstances hadn't forced this. He was a major part of our family and it has been devastating to give him up. There was no other course for us after our marriage broke down and neither could look after him alone due to working long shifts etc. I feel for Harry so much as he never asked for any of this. Our home was his sanctuary and giving him up has been a huge wrench. So for all those out there who think he came back to daybreaks for any other reason than the above, you are very, very much mistaken.

Poor Dottie Lottie has been attacked by a West Highland White nearly sank his teeth into her nose. My beautiful quietly confident Jed really growled and snarled at him and guess what the WHW backed off immediately don't know what Jed said!! Not sure if Jed was protecting me or Lottie or in fact both!! Jed is no pushover.

Nosey
I’m Homed
Had the pleasure of meeting this "iceberg" today at the kennels. Why iceberg? over 90% of Nosey is behind bars with just a little nose poking through which just loves a rub, then he stands so elegantly to have the rest of him fussed, what a lovely lad.
