Mikey
I’m Homed
As Jo said, I took Mikey to the park yesterday. We were out for 3 hours with a quick stop at my house for a drink (which he turned his nose up at) and some gravy bones (which he didn't turn his nose up at!). He is truly delightful and no trouble to take out. Once again, he was brilliant with other dogs in the park and an excellent ambassador for the breed. I really enjoyed my time with him xx

It started off as a chilly day and progressed into a bitterly cold day! Thanks to everyone for their help today, all dogs had morning and afternoon walks, massive thanks to Liz for taking Mikey out for a three hour walk, he still wasn't worn out! Lovely Boss man had a viewing and was introduced to his soon to be brother, this came in the shape of Bear, a Saint Bernard, they were great together, for those who want to cuddle Boss before he goes home you will need to do this before 11.00 am on Wednesday. Thanks to those that came in with donations, it is very much appreciated. We left tonight with the residents tucked up with cosy fleeces and their heating on, I'm still trying to get warm. Stay safe and well everyone. X

I too am upset to read this I know how committed you are and all your team. I was so grateful for the advice and help recently even driving over an hour and a half to do a home visit.

I feel very privileged to have reserved to beautiful Poppy. How could we say no to those beautiful eyes?! She will be known as Rosie due to Poppy being the name of a former family dog. If anyone is considering a greyhound I would encourage you to visit Stan. I saw him yesterday and he is a true gent, very calm and good with my 2 year old. I was very impressed with the set up at Day Breaks and Ruth was fantastic, taking lots of time to support me in finding the right dog for our family. Can’t wait for her to come and see her new home tomorrow xx

Oh Boss I met you just over a week ago, and you gave kisses and was so friendly and happy. If I could have sneeked you into my car I would have done, but already have Billy & Sam xx. Someone give this adorable boy a home, he is sooooo gorgeous xxxx

I am sorry to add this post. We spend an awful amount of time with viewings, matching people to the dogs, a lengthy homing process and offer support and advice. We say that we are available 24/7 to support those that need it. When I hear that someone feels that they have been unable to receive help this makes me extremely upset as we are always at the end of the phone. We care very much about every dog that is adopted from Daybreaks and do our best and that is all we can do.

Oh my goodness, what an absolutely crazy day that was!! Ruth was tied up with viewings & phone calls about viewings and a new arrival - whilst I found myself tied to the desk ploughing through the paperwork!! Both morning and afternoon walks were managed for the boys & girls, amidst all the comings & goings that kept us flat out all day. This morning the lovely Poppy was reserved, well done beautiful. Then the fabulous Bertie arrived on site - he is the brother of Tess, Jess & Bess and bounced through the gate with a welcoming smile! He is a big lad, but such a friendly happy soul. This afternoon the beautiful Ellie found herself reserved, so happy for her as she is finding kennel life a bit difficult so we are delighted she will be off to her new home very soon. Huge thanks to the many visitors who called in with lovely festive treats for both humans & doggies, donations of bedding and food, Lorna was kept busy with pampers and, as ever, the sand run was very popular. Well the weekend is here again, and looking at the diary it is going to be a very busy one - with so many viewings booked that we may well run out of dogs!!!! I shall keep everything crossed that there are some red or green signs come Monday morning. After such a full on day it's definitely time for a relax and a nice glass or two of red wine later on to toast our residents, and all our foster doggies, and wish for forever homes to come their way. Whatever you are doing this weekend, please stay safe. Cheers! Angie xx
