Jaylo

I am sure someone forgot to tell Jaylo that you slow down as you get older. She jumps about and plays like an overgrown puppy especially just before walks and food time. She has been part of our family for four years in October. She loves attention off anyone. At bedtime she goes outside and then dances about until I let her in. Then she goes upstairs and snuggles into her bed. You can almost hear the contented sigh. She has a mind of her own and you could find yourself being pulled off the path to the nearest interesting smell or trying to get her to move because she has decided that she does not want to go in that direction. The only time she makes a sound is when she is dreaming.

Nell: Our princess...loves her own company...but has an invisible friend that visits every day, whome she plays with ??? Flynn: Not from Daybreaks...a big gentle giant...a really loving, faithfull boy . So...that's our update.......let's hear yours ??? Would be greyt to hear how you are all doing. come on ......don't be shy !!! X.

Hi Willow'sMa. Having read your comments earlier, l quite naturally assumed that when you said, and l quote -"she has a fine pair of lungs...and ls'nt afraid to use them" that you wr're talking about Ruth! The penny has just dropped! You were referring to Willow!!! Wer'nt you ??? Better stop digging this hole now !!! So pleased to hear Willow is settling in and you are taking advantage of the advice and help at hand. X.

Wow Banger our place sounds similar to yours. I was a bit iffy yesterday because of the madera cake I took up the garden the day before. So far today we have had brekkie, a game of gruffle and chase and a strange dance from mum called The wasp up yer skirt dance. We are a bit late for our walk because she cant find her right shoe ..... I know where it is PetalBabe has got it !. We all hope so much that mum can bring us to the BBQ on Sunday X Love Tom,Petal, Rose and sweet Ellie XX

Hi banger. They have learned to hide everything in my house too. I have been here 12 weeks now and have stolen several loaves, a mobile phone case, a key fob, chewed a hole in the phone. Yesterday they went to do dog walking at daybreaks. I stay at home because I get stressed if I go. I ate my Kong and was bored. There was a fluffy cat (not a real one) that belonged to my mummy's mummy who is in heaven. I dedded it. Mummy was not happy. Is all OK now as she says I am a mischief ( think she is confused because I'm not, I am a greyhound) but she loves me lots and lots. It is fun being on a home. I hope you are having fun too. Mummy says she remembers walking you at daybreaks. Sending nose licks. Love Milly xx

Hi Linda and Paul, Really looking forward to seeing everyone and getting going with the training, drinking tea and eating cake! Willow is a lovely girl. She has met a Labrador dog who was good friends with Iris and seemed to accept him. She has walked past cats asleep on their owners drives-and ignored them more or less. So far she is clean in the house and has learnt to go up and down the stairs. The part of life she isn't enjoying is being separated from 'her pack' in the day or at night. Ruth is guiding us on this which is so reassuring and supportive. I now know she has a fine pair of lungs and isn't afraid to use them! So this is a work in progress that I hope will get better as we follow all the top tips we are being given. Really looking forward to introducing Willow to everyone and seeing you. Xx

Hi Banger, this women I live with is very good, every night before she goes to bed she checks the kitchen for food and hides it in the microwave but she has to leave herself a note that's it's in there. She also checks the living room just encase there are empty cups/plates lying around for me in the night. I've tried to get Ripple in on the act but it isn't working. I'm just hoping that the women of the house slips up and then it's party night at the Brown's house, you up for it Banger

Banger. Your exploits remind me of my Bob and Norman. They were great at stealing. Bob managed to suck down 3 scotch eggs at a buffet we had and that was the first day we had him!!! Any way, regarding the stair gate dilema. Has no one ever told you that a grehoung can jump a 6 foot fence. Problem solved, a run and a jump and who knows what rewards could be waiting???!!!! Look forwards to hearing if you manage it. X

Hi Tony Sorry I haven't been posting anything for a while but dad forgot his password. He really does amaze me sometimes! This steeling business has just become a serious challenge now as dad is on to me. After a raid on the fridge (they filled it up too far and the door didn't shut properly tee, hee) he has now gone and installed a stair gate so the kitchen is off limits. I thought about a grappling hook and rope but four legs aint good for climbing such devices so need to be inventive. Mind you, he left a tiger loaf on the counter last night and did not see me hiding behind the table. mmmmmmmmmmmmm tiger loaf is now my favourite!! Only got a bite though as mom caught me and sent me outside. Not good!! Mom and dad was clearing out the two upstairs rooms the weekend which was fun. I found lots of things to collect and take onto my bed. I also had a go at being an Andrex puppy and nicked the end of a roll of wallpaper and trailed it back to my bed. That created a laugh so got away with that one. Still learning what I can and cant get away with but seem to get away with more than my fair share. Just flash these dreamy eyes at them and they are putty in my paws. Well, sometimes!!
