Caesar
I’m a Sponsor Dog
It has been a different time for Caesar. Because Charlotte (our old Greyhound) was getting poorly we were not able to do as much activities as we would like. Our daughter also had half term that meant I had to pay attention and do activities with her. We still managed to do training with him. He is really starting to walk nicely to heel. Although the table surfing is something he still does. Especially when I leave the room, haha. He is just such a clever boy and knows how to exploit a situation, basically what a good dog should do. It is the same at night he knows he should not jump on the bed but once we are asleep he will take his chance and jump on. I usually do not notice until I wake up and feel a warm body lying between my wife and I. My wife and I had the feeling his tumour seems to sometimes not be there. When I felt alongside his tongue I could still feel a small lump. Maybe it is my wishful and hopeful thinking, but it does seem a bit smaller. In discussion with Ruth it was agreed to contact the treatment centre and give them an update. From the photo’s it is not clear to see if it is reduced and they advised to keep monitoring and keep them up to date with progress. This week has been unsettling for both Caesar and Barney. The matriarch (Charlotte) who kept telling them off, especially Caesar, was suddenly not there. They were both somewhat confused after Charlotte had passed away and were being extra naughty to see if they could get away with more. Unfortunately for them they cannot, haha. I remain amazed with Caesar, he is such a care free spirit, sometimes a bit too much so. He has this tumour but he does not let that bother him. He is very upbeat all the time seems to be happy and have a smile ready for you. A very loving boy, he puts his front paws on the Sofa and buries his muzzle where he can, so to get a proper cuddles. As a behaviourist he helped me with a case which was amazing. Fingers crossed and lets hope he can continue his care free life.

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
Lots going on today! 🙂 The Pet Blood Bank team arrived bright and early with Mikey being their first donor. :))Followed by Joe, Pops and Jim...well done boys! :)) We also had some pet dog volunteers. Alan's Belle and Shirley and Richard's Drew and Frieda. :)) Xxx Sadly my lovely Cracker was too nervous to donate but he still received a toy and a bag of Gravy bones! For which he was very pleased! 🙂 It really is such a good thing to do, if you are interested in your dog becoming a donor, why not sign them up with the Blood Bank for their next session which will be 6th January 2022. Please contact them direct on 01509 232 222 for more information. :)) Gorgeous little Alice went home today! She is such an incredibly sweet girl. Her new family are lovely. Thank you for your patience as it took a while to do the paperwork. 🙂 Wishing you all lots of fun times together. Xxx We also had a new arrival. The very handsome Sam. He is a fabulous young blue boy. Many thanks to Richard and Declan for bathing him and carrying out his health check. Xxx Thanks so much to everyone for all your help today. I'm very grateful! Xxx I got some funny looks from Skip and Cracker tonight...had put them in the car ready to go home and then taken some rubbish over to the bin, unfortunately I managed to drop my torch in the bin! Had to get the ladders climb in the bin to retrieve my torch then climb out again! :)))) Xxx
