Bill was returned today after over a year in his home. He has been returned due to no fault of his own.

Daybreaks Diary!

After almost needing a lantern to guide me through the fog this morning, it turned into an absolutely beautiful Spring day - we all enjoyed the feel of the sun on our faces. Jo was off on the Vet run first thing, this time it was Johnny's turn. He had a waggy tail on his return, and apparently everyone at the Vets had fallen in love with him (quite right too). River, who was neutered yesterday, was as bright as a button today and we enjoyed lots of snuggles as, being post op, he can't go out for walks. I had to smile at Joe this morning, I was obviously taking too long to clean the kennels while the dogs were out having breakfast, so he pulled the dog bed down that was hanging over the bars of the feeding run, and promptly sat himself down on it!!! It was a fairly quiet day for visitors, just a few sand run bookings, so we could get health checks and grooming done, as well as 2 lovely walks in the sunshine. I actually managed to hang the washing out on the line - and get it dry too!! The residents spent another day without coats on, nice for their skin to have a breather and a break from being covered, but as they finish their supper it's coats back on ready to snuggle up in heated kennels as its forecast a chilly night. The weekend is on us again,and the diary looks packed for both days, so lets hope for some red or green signs by Monday morning - I shall raise my glass (or two) later. Whatever you're up to over the weekend, stay safe & enjoy - and let's hope this lovely weather lasts. Cheers!! Angie xx

It was a much better day today. It was nice to be able to take the dogs coats off for a while. Sure they all enjoyed the sunshine. :)) Sue very kindly took River to the vets to be neutered and have a dental this morning. He was very lively when Richard brought him back to the kennels. Such a very happy lad. :)) Xxx Timmy and Bee came in for a visit this morning. It was lovely to see them and their owner. Xxx Timmy loved everyone he met and decided to sit on Richard's feet so he couldn't get out of the office! Xxx Many thanks to Shirley and Richard for collecting a donation of food and treats from Pets at Home for our boys and girls. Xxx Capri, now called Sophie was officially adopted this afternoon! She is such a polite young lady and sat in the office very patiently whilst her paperwork was completed. :)) Xx Thanks so much to everyone for your help today! :)) Xxx

I logged into the website to do my Daybreaks Diary post and saw Daybreaks Ruth had already posted. I don't know if she mentioned how cold, wet damp and miserable it was, but it was flipping cold, wet, damp and miserable. Congratulations to Pauline for her reservation today, something good to brighten the day. Xx

Eeewwwww - what an absolutely miserable afternoon we have had weather wise but despite feeling damp and cold, we saw the gorgeous Pauuuuuuuline reserved. She is off on trial on Monday and most of you will be pleased to know she has got a planned name change! Thank you to our Wednesday walkers who also helped line up the dogs for me to weigh and nail clip all in turn. Alex spent time pottering about again and I drenched his skin with the aloe vera solution in a bit to help his bald bits. Still no results on the skip scrape......

Joey joined me to Elmdon Park today. He travelled well in the car and settled in the boot. He was a joy to walk, we passed lots of different dogs of all sizes and he behaved impeccably! He loved being out of the kennels, lots of different sights and smells. I would for him to find his forever home, If I was in a different position he would be home with me! X

A big cuddle for Alex tonight Xxx He spent most of the day in the office in his pyjamas! He looked so cute. :)) He seems more settled now and he has his special "shake" back that I remember from when he first arrived at the kennels. If I didn't already have three beautiful Greyhounds I would love to take him home. He is a very happy, friendly lad. Adorable! Xxx
