Jim
I’m Homed
Jim came with me to Elmdon Park today. We walked there, but I had to get something out of the car first. He was quite disappointed that we weren't going by car and did his best to try and squeeze past me to get in! Once at the park, we met lots of different breeds. He wasn't too sure what to make of them to be honest and will need a bit more practice with them. He is quite strong on the lead, but that was a great help going back up the hill! He loved having a good sniff around and gave me a lovely thank you kiss when we got back to the kennels. He also looks very handsome in his starry fleece. Hoping that he doesn't have to wait too long for his forever home xx

I met gorgeous Jess today. What a stunning girl. We had a new volunteer start today, who is also called Jess...We tried very hard to persuade her family that as they both had the same name she needed to go home with them! :))

Buddy
I’m Homed
Buddy was brought back this afternoon by his owners son. He told me sadly his Father had passed away earlier this morning. Xxx Although a little wobbly on his back legs Buddy looks great and has obviously been looked after and very much loved by his owners. I heard all about him and his life with them. Unfortunately as much as his owners family would have liked to have been able to keep him they have cats and Buddy isn't cat friendly. 🙁 He came back with his lovely big bed and his favourite spider man blanket. 🙂 Xx Later on this afternoon Ruth and Andy came to pick him up to go and stay with them. Sending our condolences to Buddy's family, very sorry for your loss. Xxx

Heartbroken for this boy and his previous owner, poor lad must be so confused to find himself back in kennels, and he must be so missing his owner, I really hope somebody finds it in their hearts to give Buddy a home so he can live the rest of his life in peace, keeping my fingers crossed for him, big hugs for you Buddy xxxxx

Erik, Irina and Sofia, I am heartbroken to see this news about Charlotte. She was indeed a true greyhound ambassador and certainly did put up with a lot from Barney and Caesar. She will run fast and free at Rainbow Bridge with all of our beloved hounds that have passed before. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. She is no longer by your side, but she is forever in your hearts. Much love to you all. X

Charlotte
Over the Rainbow Bridge
It is with great sadness that I need to inform you that our beloved Charlotte, passed away this afternoon when we were 2 minutes away from our vet appointment. The comfort we feel is that she passed away in the presents of her 3 humans as if we were going on a fun trip somewhere. Whilst we are currently very upset, we also want to remember the brilliant dog she was. She did fundraising for (now) Daybreaks kennels, awareness raising during road shows. Her kind spirit and wanting to be center of attention made her a real character. She was kind, patient with our baby, now 5 year old daughter. Charlotte was a great ambassador for the breed. We shall miss her dearly.

Mikey
I’m Homed
Had the pleasure of Mikey’s company again as we went for a walk to Breuton Park and Solihull town centre. As usual, he was well behaved in the car and was good as gold on his lead. We took him through the children’s play area to see how he would react to children playing. Although he was inquisitive, there were no negative reactions to the children. We walked into the town centre and he drew a lot of attention with many comments on how well behaved he was in such a busy environment. After a quick hot chocolate and water break we made our way back through the park and back to the kennels. Hopefully Mikey will find a lovey forever home soon. xx
