Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
This morning started out bright and sunny, it almost seemed tropical (ok not quite but you can hope)!! This afternoon was a different story, we felt like we went back to the ice age. Many thanks to the Wednesday walkers and our volunteers. The dogs all had morning walks, as we were short of people this afternoon the inmates that could go had fun in the sand run. The ones that couldn't had a lovely groom in the feeding runs. I left tonight with the dogs all tucked up with their heating on and their fleecey coats on. As always stay safe, warm and well.

We said goodbye Ivern today. He woke up at 6:30am this morning stood up and went into a seizure which he didn't come out of. We took him to the vets and they tried everything they could, but a suspected inflamed lesion in the brain had left him in constant muscle tension and unable to recognise his surroundings (which was a blessing). A big lad, who always wanted affection, you leave a very big empty space. xxx

We have just been out to fetch Winny from a home where she has been for three years due to her owner being unable to look after her anymore.

I would like to thank everyone for their kind comments about Gummers (Max), like all of our hounds he was one in a million to us and always will be. Your wings were ready but our hearts were not. Xxxx

So since Buick got home I think he has sniffed every corner of the house downstairs and garden and already showed us he likes a bit of Bally fun. He has decided the kitchen is his favourite room and worked out that’s where the treats live….gobbled his dinner and been on a walk where as much sniffing was done as walking……….the toys are now scattered across the living room and he is curled up in a corner (I am sure he will work out the big bed is actually his)…….oh and to our surprise all toileting has been in the garden and he hasn’t christened any furniture just yet haha. So far the only thing we need to work on is dinner manners as he found daddy’s diner very exciting and thought his nose should be allowed to go in it.
