Lily
I’m Homed
Just thought I'd update you on lily. She is simply perfect in everyway!! She loves lots if cuddles and attention, loves her walks and she loves my little boy as much as he loves her. We couldn't imagine our life without her in it. She has learned commands very quickly and does exactly as i ask. Ruth was worried she would chew things but so far she hasn't, she loves her toys and is so playful. I took her to a training session after only having her 11 days and people there couldn't believe she'd only been with me 11 days as we have such a good bond. They thought she'd been with us years. Thanks you for letting lily have her forever home with us. She is our spoilt baby with more lily peeps coats than she can wear in a week. Thank you to Ruth and heather for all the info and training tips. Lily loves to chill on my bed when im at work and when im home she is never from my side nudging my hand for attention. She is total perfection and we love her unconditionally. I hope all the other greys get the loving home they deserve. Xxxx

Spotty has arrived at the kennels and her photos will be on soon. I desperately hope she can find a home soon after being in a home for so long. Her teeth need attention so I will take her to the vets tomorrow. Grateful thanks to Tina and all the volunteers who are covering the kennels today while I am at home with really rotton asthma :-((((

You could smear some on the outside as well so he gets to realise what treats are in store for him.

Tina is such a pretty little girl. Still a bit sore from her op, she was quiet today and didn't come out on a walk, but she is an affectionate little thing. xxx

It was lovely to see Nora today and see how much better she is. She was back to bouncing and wagging her tail and demolishing her dinner in a very short space of time!! Bless her, she really is on the mend now. xx

Jelly
I’m Homed
Had a lovely time with my Jelly today. We had a great walk in the sunshine and I feel part of the reason she pulls is because she is just so interested in absolutely everything around her! There was a match on at the rugby club and she was immediately attracted by the noise of the whistle and the shouting - she stuck her head through the hedge and was so reluctant to leave this very exciting event! She really is so precious, I just hope she finds her forever sofa very soon. Big cuddles my pretty little girl. xxx

Left Buddy on his own with the run of our dining room while we were out today, he was fine. He has been with us to visit friends and to meet their cocker spaniel, that went well. I did buy him a "kong" type toy and put treats in it for him when I go out of the room but he isn't interested in it. I will keep trying him with it.

I do not understand why this beautiful boy is still in the kennels. He is quiet, gentle, well behaved on his walks,loves a fuss,wags his whole back end in greeting,in fact a good dog all round.

Flash
I’m Homed
Flash is the dog I would be adopting (if I was in the position to do so) he is the best behaved grey we have at the moment. Walks well on the lead, quiet, friendly without being overwhelming, tail wags in greeting, loves a fuss without being too pushy,toilets appropriately, in fact I cannot think of anything adverse to say about him. I love this boy and hope he finds the loving home he deserves very soon.
