Henry
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Good afternoon! Well, its been a week (yesterday) since Henry came to stay & its been lovely. He's been a very good boy but he does have quite an unusual habit! Almost every day, I walk into the kitchen & find the floor awash with water & the dogs water bowls in Henry's bed! I assumed this was for attention, possibly a thing he started to do at the kennels to prompt someone to come in & talk to him whilst giving him fresh water. Poor Henry we all thought.....until today. I saw him today boldly run up to his water bowl, pick it up in his mouth, showering water everywhere, & run to his bed where he tosses bowl into the air & watches it clatter onto the ground. Hmmmm. I'll be having words with Henners about this I think! In the last few days, he's really come into his own & is utterly bonkers (not helped by the influence of a cheeky whippet). The two now bark & play fight with eachother, chase eachother in the garden....& house & had to be reprimanded yesterday for jumping from one sofa to another during play. He's still as good natured as ever but barking mad! Next week half term, this is the true test to see if all is well with him & family life. I'm not anticipating any problems but we must make sure. That said, my husband & sons had a meeting over breakfast this morning & decided he's definitely ours forever. Ruth, you'd better get those adoption forms ready then! My best wishes to all at Daybreaks. May see some of you for Henry's first free running this weekend. Helen & family x

Thank you again for all your good wishes. We are completely heartbroken but still getting daily joy from our beautiful boy who is a real character and cuddle monster. His pain relief is currently very effective and we are hoping he will still be well in two weeks when we are off to Padstow again. I will be forever thankful to Ruth for allowing us to rehome him, I just wish he could have been with us for years instead of months. J+J xx

Fearne
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Fearne Just explain to them that you're still worried about your new world and just need to stay near familiar people and they'll understand that you're only a little girl - and only 3... you'll get braver over time though it may be you'll be happier with another greyhound friend to hold your paw when your hooman pets are out .. aunti Ruth can let your hoomans have another greyhound or two 🙂 then you won't have to cuddle up to your hooman pets for comfort 🙂 Love Charlie lurcher who has most of the hooman bed at home 🙂

Fearne
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Oh fearnie you are a little minx- my latest boy rick was a bit like fearn- I think it,s just a case of settling espec as like my rick she was a returnee- rick followed us around constantly at first and we found that leaving him for small amounts of time at first and then longer and longer he got the message you may have to put up with the bed situation although I found if you keep coming down and giving reassurance then eventually they stop whining at night I don,t know what to suggest about gate jumping though mine were n,t clever enough to try that one- best of luck

Zac
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Well, Zac has had a busy day today and is now crashed out in his basket snoozing away! This handsome boy attracted a lot of attention up at the garden centre this morning, and stood quietly and patiently taking all the cuddles whilst Michael conducted a mini awareness roadshow! We then took him to the kennels whilst we did our afternoon volunteering and he was quite content to sit cuddled up in 2 coats in the kitchen run, watching the world go by. Such a shame the weather was so dreadful as there were no visitors to admire this beauty sitting so quietly and patiently. xxx
