Mikey
I’m Homed
Took Mikey out today. What a pleasure he was walked so well on his lead we went to Sheldon Country Park. Wasnt phased by the cows. Met a lady with a Beagle they got on so well and we all walked together for about 20 minutes. A couple of people commented how lovely he looked in his coat he's such a handsome boy. He was tired on way back couldn't keep his eyes open lol. He really deserves a lovely forever home he's fabulous.

Tiff
I’m Homed
Tiff has just been with my daughter for a couple of days post surgery. What a poppet! She settled immediately with her two greys and was a lovely house guest. During her stay we took her out and about both on her own and with the other hounds and she was perfect. Yesterday we went to the riverbank and then on to a farmers market where she charmed all the students at Sutton Bonnington Campus, really she was a star. We feed both her greyhounds and my terriers on a wheat free diet just in case they eat each others food on house visits, its so easy to do this we no longer think about the "wheat free" thing. Once you have read a few labels and know which brands have not added wheat to their product ( why would you?) you just shop accordingly. It's no more trouble that picking your dogs favourite brand. I want to add this because Tiff's diet should cause no trouble whatsoever. Anyway, please consider this girl for your home, you will love her!

What a fantastic day today. Crazy busy. Thanks to our Wednesday walkers, Denise, Bella, Chris and Annie for all the I help today. Firstly, Wanda now Molly was homed, this was followed by Star. Little Tina was reserved, such a busy day. Denise and Bella cleaned the chicken house, I looked at the monitor with the camera views only to see chickens in the top kitchen run waiting patiently to return to their nice clean home! Ruth was in and had lots of Christmas stuff out in the back kitchen! She did leave a little early to take Simon and Lynn's Skip and Sam to visit Simon who is sadly very poorly. For those who don't know Si is now in Marie Curie hospice in Solihull. He has been tremendous supporter of Daybreaks together with Lynne. There is a just giving page set up that he asked Ruth to do, he wants to help secure the future of the kennels which are currently rented. If you can please donate via the link on Facebook, we understand not everyone can donate, if you can't please share this information. This would be true legacy that Simon is so passionate about. Thank you x

IIt was little Star's turn to be neutered today. She travelled very well in the car and was a very good girl at the vets. The nurses loved her. :)) I was able to pick her up quite early and she was happy to eat her dinner. Bless her. All being well she should be going home tomorrow. Xxx The weather was chilly but nice and sunny today so everyone got a walk this morning. Sadly, this afternoon we didn't have any walkers so Charlie our work experience student took each of our residents into the sandrun for a stroll. Thanks Charlie. Xx We have started to put the heaters on at night in the kennels and all the dogs have a fleecy coat on. 🙂 Dont forget we do have some really nice fleeces for sale if you need something to Keep your Greyhound nice and warm. Xxx We got the Christmas Trees out of the shed this afternoon! They don't have any decorations on yet but sure it won't be long! :)))

Star had her neutering operation this morning. She was such a good girl in the car. It took us 40 minutes to get to the vets due to roadworks!! Star slept the whole time. 🙂 All the nurses loved her! Xxx

Steve (Warrior)
I’m Homed
Well, Steve is back from holiday in our bungalow in Cornwall and we have learnt some new things about him again. We discovered he does not like thunderstorms when we had a sudden enormous storm in the middle of the night and he charged our bedroom door throwing it open and landed on our bed ! so not much sleep that night. having found that if a catch was loose on a door he could get in a room he shouldn't have been in, we arrived back one day to find we had had a 4 legged burglar take a large bag of "goodies" we had packed to bring back home out of a bedroom and scatter them around the living room. Mainly just wrappers left from sweets and biscuits (luckily no chocolate ) and Fat Neck Finn covered in cocoa powder because Steve had ripped up 6 ready filled cardboard hot chocolate cups, didn't like the content and so just scattered it everywhere poor Finn included who looked like a Brindle hound and Steve just wagged his tail at me. No ill effects just a sugar rush and a bit of loose poo which probiotics cleared up. All catches on doors are now checked and tightened. lol Never a dull moment xx
