Well, so far: - the cat has told him who is in charge - the rat told that the cat was wrong and that the rat was in charge - he went straight outside and went toity - then went for a short walk to show off his new coat - had his tea - now relaxing with in front of the fire. Anyone got any bed time tips?

Toby, you adorable pooch. Not snapped up this weekend? Do you need a foster home for a while I wonder? I'm sure there would be somewhere in our home for you to sleep & crinkle your nose up on!

Like has been said - we all at Daybreaks pride ourselves on offering help and advice .. we take great care to do thorough homechecks and point out the pitfalls as well as the joys of greyhounds, Ruth and all at the kennels go through a lot of it again when the dogs are viewed to double check the prospective owner understands what they're taking on and after the dog is rehomed our home checkers call again regularly to make sure all is well and call until the new owner and dog are settling together. Ruth, the home checker and my phone numbers are in the comprehensive rehoming pack which goes home with every new dog, the phone has an ansaphone which is on 24/7 and checked by Ruth almost 24/7 too. We are all happy to speak to new owners and give help and advice over a wide range of issues as we've all had greyhounds for many years so have usually gone through it too. The free training classes we offer are to encourage people to meet other owners and to help train their new greyhound as greys are very different to any other breed so need a special approach. I'm disappointed that Patricks owners didn't think they went home with much information but at least he's now back with us.

Dingo
I’m Homed
Took Dingo to Sutton today didn't find him a permanent new home but the next best a lovely foster family. Dingo is just lovely and ideal for someone who is looking for their first grey or has other dogs or cats.In fact he would probably fit into most homes with ease. He is friendly,house trained,cat tolerant,has lived with little dogs and is easy to walk on the lead.His tail hasn't stopped wagging all morning,he seems a happy laid back kind of a guy who loved to be amongst all the other greys who were out for their morning stroll.He is quite a big boy but such a softie he likes to curl up in his bed with his own little rag doll. I hope he finds his new home as soon as he can.He has certainly been loved and cherished by his former family.

Gave this little girl a cuddle this morning before I went to the Sutton Park walk and when I got back she was gone-not surprised she is tiny cuddly friendly little poppet.

I just can't foster Miss Lilly any more....I have to keep her forever. I think it is the thought that she was found as a stray and to think that no-one was looking for her because no-one cared enough that she was gone. She is the most affectionate and gentle creature and I cannot bear the thought of handing over her care to someone else. She will have the most lovely life here with us. She is loved and will have everything she needs.

Rory
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I love this new picture of Rory! I have met Rory the day I brought my 3 year old son & 8 month old whippet to Daybreaks to find an older companion for my whippet. He really was a super pooch & will make a wonderful life long friend for someone or a family. He was great with my son & didn't bat an eyelid over our tiny whippet. He was on my very short list but Henry seemed to bond better with our pooch than with Rory. By no means am I saying Rory was anti social though! He's a lovely boy & will make a super companion. A really nice dog. I hope he finds the right home soon x
