Alfie (Yardy)
I’m Homed
Very sadly, due to a family illness Alfie is back at the kennels. HIs family are heartbroken and hope a new home can be found as soon as possible. He is a very good boy and loves lots of fuss. He also loves going for a walk and will go out whatever the weather! He can be strong on the lead and can sometimes get very excited with other dogs. He is very loving and affectionate. His family say he is a very happy boy. :)) We are very sorry for all concerned. Xxx

Shandy
Over the Rainbow Bridge
This week we had to say goodbye to our girl…a total shock is an understatement but thank you Shandy for the wonderful memories including early morning garden sniffinks, showing us how greyhounds play fetch and hogging my chair in the winter and the sun in the garden in the summer, the games of hide and seek or kangaroo impressions before walkies and our Miss February Star ….. we’re going to miss you, go and run free over that rainbow until we meet again xxxxxx

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
It's been a while since we've had every kennel full - so today was a busy old day, but so lovely to have lots of beautiful doggies to look after. Jo was on the Vet run this morning as it was Rocky's turn to be neutered. Hopefully he will be off to his new home very soon now. I met our 3 latest arrivals - and have fallen under the spell of the adorable River! All 3 have settled well and are good out on their walks, and of course the pretty Sahara has found herself reserved already. All doggies enjoyed morning & afternoon walks in some lovely springlike weather - post op Minnie was not impressed at being left behind bless her!! We caught up with weighing & health checks, and then all our residents had a lovely groom and teeth clean in readiness for the weekend's viewings - fingers crossed. As I am typing this, the students are feeding the boys & girls, then we will tuck them up for the night with heaters on, as despite the lovely day, it soon starts to get chilly when the sun goes in. On that note, we are running very low on tinned meat for our boys & girls, especially as there are now so many of them, so if you can spare a tin or two we would be eternally grateful. xx It's another busy weekend ahead again, and lets hope that we see a red or green sign or two by Monday morning. I shall raise my usual glass later and keep everything crossed. Have a great weekend one and all- and as usual, stay safe and enjoy. Cheers! Angie xx

Max
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Wagga Max (Max) known to all as Gummers: 04/05/10 - 03/03/22 I am heartbroken to say that yesterday morning my beautiful Gummers made his way across the rainbow bridge. He was an amazing boy who loved everyone and lived up to his racing name, he always had a waggy tail, even at the end. We miss him terribly, his legs gave up so suddenly and combined with his nasal tumor it was the kindest last act of love I could give to him. Waiting for him would have been Sarah Scare Bear, Willow Pillow, Stevie and the rest of the gang. You are now young again, you can run fast and free and be free of pain. God has gained another incredible angel. Gummers, you may be no longer by my side but you will be forever in my heart. Until we meet again precious boy. XXXXX
