Marco
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Something happened yesterday that made a stronger bond with me & Marco yesterday. I took Henry & Marco for a walk yesterday lunchtime & got caught in that horrible wind & snow. We arrived back home & I realised I'd locked myself out. I had no keys, no phone & my parents who live very near were out. Eventually I walked to my children's school to ask them to call my husband. We had, by now, probably travelled over 3 miles in very cold weather. Both dogs had fleece & coat on but I was still anxious. They coped very well at the school, didn't make a sound & walked so well back up a steep hill of about half a mile to home. We then had to wait 45 minutes until my husband arrived back from work. I tried to keep the boys out of the direct wind & it was Marco who stood with me-his face on my face, curled around me, to keep me warm. Henry stood, ears up, keeping watch whilst Marco & I spent the entire time together. Marco is such a loving dog &, as I've said before, if you don't stroke him he will bop your bottom with his snout or nudge your tummy until you tickle him. He is still nervous in the evenings, Henry & Jasper snuggle up &/play & Marco pops in & out but is still prefering to sleep in a more quiet area on his own. I wonder if Marco would prefer a more quiet home to mine & one without a puppy. That said, its all about a perfect match with the right person. Yesterday I saw something in Marco that tells me he's got a certain extra special something & will make a very loyal companion who will lie at your feet & put his head in your hands. I know he isn't at kennels & so you're missing him but if you call Daybreaks I can bring him to meet you. Personally, I feel, he will like his bed in a cosy corner & live with a female greyhound or by himself but, again, he may well meet a perfect doggy match-its amazing when it happens. I can't stress how much people need to meet Marco-you'll understand when you see him. Helen x

Bert
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I shall have to give the lovely Bert an extra special cuddle when I see him tomorrow. I can't believe he's being overlooked as he is such a poppet. As Clare said, he was a treasure at the Mell Square Roadshow, and I can confirm what a busy, noisy and overwhelming place it was! At one stage he took himself into the gazebo, snuggled down onto the duvets and had a nap! Keeping my fingers crossed that this special lad gets noticed soon. x
