Daisydog here......well it seems I am moving my pink sleeping donut to a new house. Mum is very excited today because she has exchanged contracts on our new house by the sea. We are moving on Wednesday and I am staying with my chums Lola and Lena while mum runs around like a mad thing for two days! Mum is sad cos she will miss helping at the kennels with auntie ruth but I am so looking forward to sandcastles and icecreams. What a lucky girl I am! xx

maxsmum Zeus came out of hospital last night. We are having to feed him by hand or through a syringe at the moment, but trying to tempt him with all sorts of things, ice cream seems to work but unfortunately it doesn't feed him. Zeus sends thanks to all who wished him a speedy recovery. Will keep you posted on his progress.

Ade
I’m Homed
Hello Ade I have given you my cuddle today, as I can see that you haven't found a lovely home just yet. I am sure that you will find a home soon as there are sometimes lovely dogs like you that are just waiting a bit longer than others. Just to reassure you that our James who is now 9 was at the kennels for six months before we went along looking for a buddy for our Rose. We are so happy that we adopted him and you can see that you will be worth the wait. Wishing you finding a lovely home for Christmas.

What a shame, its always dreadful when there are accidents and our dogs are hurt- hopefully Zeus is recovering well in hospital. The problem is that rarely are attacks unprovoked - its just that we may not see what caused it and/or the provocation may have been so quick that you/we missed it. My lurcher would attack other dogs so he was always on a lead - I watched for his signals and I was sure he didn't give a warning just piled in 🙁 Then I realised that his signals escalated so fast that they were over in a blink, now he's lots better and even gives a warning growl. Greys can get very excited by lots of things .. usually things moving - that's why they are muzzled when they race ...lots of adrenalin, lots of dogs close together and all it needs is one to bump another and that dog takes exception to being shoved and suddenly you could have a fight and we all know how delicate greyhound skin is 🙁 My greyhound gets very excited when she sees a cat and has bitten me and my lurcher in her excitement ... she doesn't mean to it's just that she's completely beside herself so I used to muzzle her when we did our road walk. I never run my grey and lurcher together either cos without the focus of chasing something they may just decide each other are chaseable - no malice in it - just their instincts .. plus I'm fed up of them crashing into each other and having to go to the chiropractor to be fixed 🙁 I think you did exactly the right thing bringing Den back,I hope Zeus is home soon and back to his old self. Regards Julie
