The reason I never volunteered to foster was because I thought I'd be rubbish at it. It turns out I was right. We are adopting Andy! What can I say when he came to stay I repeatedly said he wasn't stopping it was temporary but I totally fell in love with him. He is such a mommies boy. He is my shadow, we have supported him in learning to live in a home and he has slotted right into ours. When he came back from the vets Spirit and Star were more happy to see him than me so how could I possibly let him go somewhere else? I've never even thought of having another dog. I knew when I had Spirit I wanted him to have company but we were great as we were but now we are amazing with Andy xx

Dougie
I’m Homed
Dougie came with me to Elmdon Park today. He was very pleased to be going out and happily trotted along. Once we got to the park we saw quite a few dogs. He is a bit too interested in them at the moment and will need to get used to seeing different breeds out and about. He is a very handsome boy though and with his overshot jaw, you can't help but find him adorable. Hoping he finds his sofa soon x

It was a very overcast start to the day, but by this afternoon we had glorious sunshine. Thanks to everyone for their help today, dogs that could go on a walk had morning and afternoon walks. Thanks to Liz for taking the gorgeous Dougie to the park. He was very interested in the other dogs so really needs socialising with other breeds. We had no viewings, but had several visitors to collect food and use the sand run. Many thanks for the very generous donations, our donation trolley is full of all sorts of goodies. Our cats and chickens have asked me to send an appeal out for newspapers, they are running out and I think they are fed up with reading the same thing day after day!! The inmates were all tucked up and relaxed when we left. If you are interested in any of our fantastic hounds and would like more information or would like to pay us a visit please call the Kennels.

Sammy is such a friendly lad. He met Jag today when he came in to have his nails clipped. Sammy was in one of the runs and gave him such a waggy tail and a kiss on his head! Xxx

Josh has been quite unsettled since coming back to the kennels. He spent the day sitting with my Skip and Lyra. He is a very loving, affectionate lad just looking for the right home. Xxx

Misty has been renamed Minky. She has been with us just over a week & we couldn't have been blessed with a better companion for 13 year old Sid. Minky has settled into our life & routine very quickly. Lovely affectionate girl who is happy just to be with you. Loved the beach & seaside, walks well, friendly with dogs & meets new experiences head on! Thank you Kate for making this happen & making our family complete again x

I would like to respond to the Wednesday walkers....clocks don't leap off walls (Peanut hasn't been the same since)!!! Plastic strips by the block door don't fall off on their own free will and your efforts to tip me over the edge are working!!! I have formally requested that my working Wednesday is changed for a more normal less strange day. See you all on Wednesday. Lol xxx

That was a busy old Friday!! Ruth had a full house for teeth & corns, she was on her knees most of the morning!!! We had some fabulous donations of bedding & towels, many thanks indeed - it is amazing just how much we go through now we have a full kennels again. And Lorna had pamper customers, so the day just flew past. Our boys & girls spent time in the outside feeding runs this morning, having playtime with interactive toys and then chilling in the lovely sunshine. They had a lovely walk this afternoon and are now happily tucked up in bed. Well incredibly another weekend is here - and the diary is busy again. I shall raise my usual glass (or 2) later to toast our residents and hope that forever homes will soon be theirs. The weather forecast looks amazing so whatever you're up to, stay safe & cool, and enjoy. Cheers!! Angie xx

Ummm - on behalf of the Wednesday walkers I would just like to point out that the office clock literally leapt off the wall as I was getting the trackers down (it nearly concussed poor Peanuts who was underneath!) Also, the plastic covering bit fell off the wall while we were in the kennels leading up, therefore we accept no responsibility for this! Can I just add how much we agree about Annie who works really hard and puts up with all the madness that occurs on Wednesdays!! Xx
