Lilly
I’m Homed
Poor Lilly has been back to the vets today as she has some swelling following her spey yesterday. She has been given a B12 injection to help with clotting but is very bright in herself. She is very interested in our chickens and was quite excited with the small dogs in the vets but is totally housetrained and great with our dogs. I left her downstairs for about an hour whilst I was upstairs doing paperwork and she settled down and slept. She is so lovely! All she asks for is a home to call her own as soon as possible as I will struggle to take her back to the kennels tomorrow 🙁

Bobby spent a while on the window seat this afternoon watching everything that was going on in the park! He is a fabulous boy - I hope he can find his own forever home very soon.....

Nikki

Nikki has come straight to our house following her spey today with her sister Lulu. Nikki is a little shy but she has been wagging her tail and Tina has just been round to visit and she took treats from her 🙂 She is just like a teddy! She is a very dark brindle and is so small and adorable..... heart is melting.......

Lulu

Lulu was collected straight from the vets following her spey and brought to our house this afternoon with her sister Nikki. They are adorable! To keep them resting they are in giant crates and will be at Daybreaks tomorrow - I don't think it will be long before they both find homes.....

Charlie had to have twenty teeth removed today, poor lad. He has a very sore mouth, but is still managing to wag his tail 🙂 We have him at home with us tonight, hopefully he will feel better tomorrow. Xxx

Bobby
Over the Rainbow Bridge
When we have a returnee I am always asked why they have been returned. I am really hoping that my comment does not cause any upset to his owners if they read this but just hope that this will help Bobby find the right home and help avoid future incidents happening with any of the dogs we rehome. I have had Bobby at home with me since he was returned to the Trust on Monday. Unfortunately he bit his owner quite badly resulting in the owner having to have surgery. This occurred whilst Bobby was on his bed. It is a horrific and awful thing for the owner to experience and they are upset at returning Bobby who has been with them for 3 years. Bobby has also bitten other family members on other occasions - usually whilst on his bed but on other occasions when frightened by a football and tennis raquet in the garden and also once when trodden on. He has been absolutely golden at our house and we are just taking care to not disturb him on his bed or when he is asleep. This is something I endorse with every dog of every breed - they need to feel safe and unfortunately the only way they can tell us they are feeling threatened, frightened or unhappy is to growl or bite. He is totally clean in the house, been great with all of our greys and good with other breeds. I feel he would be best suited to a home with just adults that ensure he has strict boundaries. We have a crate up in our front room for our post ops to go in and he has taken himself into the crate to sleep a few times so I could lend a crate to a new family if it helped. He also likes to take himself upstairs so likes his own quiet space. It is a terrible thing that has happened to this family but equally sad for Bobby who has lost his home 🙁 If anyone needs any information about Bobby, please give me a call.

Lilly has had a very settled night and is bright this morning. However she has some fluid on her tum so I will be taking her to the vets just to be checked on when I take Charlie for his dental today.

Champ

Hello Champ. Isn't it a busy week at the kennels! Rosie is going this week and Nina has a new family too. Just a couple of days till you come home with us - I think we are ready - a new quilt bed, lovely coats and collars and a bowl stand. To be honest Daisy and Roxy aren't impressed with the bowl but they'll come round. Looking forward to picking you up - just need to make sure the car is comfy for you. Lots of love and kisses waiting for you xxxx
