What a very chilly day!! We had three gorgeous new arrivals today, Georgie, Clocky and Toby. We had the heater on in the treatment room so they were nice and warm to have their health checks and baths. Georgie missed out on her bath as she had recently been flea treated by her trainer. We will catch up with her in the next few days! Thanks so much to Lucy and Lauren for carrying out the health checks for them all and thanks so much to Lucy for the fabulous arrival photos!! Xxx Alan and Declan went on a warehouse run, thanks so much. They travelled back in a snow storm! Xxx Thanks you to everyone for your help today. Xxx We have nearly a full house again....please give us a call if you would like to meet any of our boys and girls. :)) Xxx

Millie (Annabelle)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Dear Shirley and Richard, I am so sad to hear you have had to let Millie go today. Xxx What a lovely happy life she had with you and her Greyhound brothers and sisters. I know how much you loved Millie and I remember what a sorry little soul she was when she arrived at Daybreaks all those years ago. It was thanks to Norman that you found yourselves with her on the Stratford Walk and that was it, she had her forever home! :)) Xxx It was so good to have seen her last week, always a lady. :)) I can see her now happily running free at Rainbow Bridge. God Bless your sweet Millie. Sending lots of love to you all. Kate, Skip, Lyra and Cracker. Xxxxxxx

So today Joe has done another short walk with the oldies and a BIG 5 miler with the piglet. He’s seen geese, sheep and more small dogs and not shown any interest. He chilled in the van for an hour or so while I browsed (and failed to choose) new curtains at a well known soft furnishing outlet. But the big news is he was left for 2 hours today. Whilst he didn’t totally relax (we have doggy spy cams) there was no damage or mess. He was left behind a tall stair gate in the room he sleeps in with the Tv on in an adjacent room. Maybe he didn’t like the repays that were on?

We had to say goodbye to Millie this afternoon. Her back legs finally gave up on her. Run free Millie, go find Guinness and Cello and have some fun together.

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
ROADSHOWS/AWARENESS EVENTS As life starts to return to something approaching "normal", we are keen to get our Roadshows and Awareness events up and running again, and are now recruiting members for the Roadshow Teams. Do you love to talk about your Hound? Are you keen to promote Greyhounds as pets and share your experiences with the public? If so, and you are in a position to commit some time at various weekends and various locations throughout the year, then please get in touch - we would love to hear from you. We are initially just gathering names to gauge numbers and areas - owning a hound is not a requirement, although hounds with a solid temperament are most welcome & will act as great ambassadors for both Daybreaks and the Greyhound breed. These events have proved very succesful in the past, not only for raising awareness but also for finding homes for our boys & girls as well as raising the vital funds we need to continue our work. So please - give the kennels a call on 0121 782 7702 or give me a shout (or text) on 07963 988883 for further information, or to sign up - and let's get back out there and start spreading the message again - Greyhounds make great pets, and Daybreaks is a great place to home one from. Angie xx

Little Molly was neutered yesterday. She travelled well in the car and walked beautifully on the lead on our short stroll up the road to the vets. She has been staying with Ruth for some tlc after her operation. Xxx
