Ruby (Pixie)
I’m Homed
Hi everyone, just a quick update on ruby. She seems to be doing very well and is now only on a daily low dose of antibiotics. She is enjoying playing with her toys even more and is now managing to do things like walk forward and can look what's going on behind her without losing her balance. She can also chase her tail now where as before she just didn't have the co-ordination. We are all so pleased that she seems like herself again and seems to enjoy her life to the full. Got our fingers crossed that she will cont to stay well and happy. Xxx

Harriet it would be nice if you could pop down to the kennels from time to time and as Ruth says they always love a cuddle and a treat. We have had a dog for 2 years now and it took my daughter 10 years before her dad agreed to a dog and he loves dogs! He is now totally besotted with our little lurcher and hopefully when the time is right for you all you may be able to have a dog one day.XX

I am really very sad for the lady concerned, as I know she will miss Derry very much even though he was with her for only a very short time. Having fostered him, though only for a few days, my wife and I know what a lovely boy he is and how well he would have settled.

Harriet, I know how gutted you are.... I told your mum you can come and visit him and all the greyhounds at Daybreaks any time. This is always good for those of you who can't have a dog but you can make a difference to those here who haven't found a family yet.... your hug will make their day and hopefully yours too xxxx

You'll meet her in a kennells on the Coventry Road Where they love their greys and the planes fly right over. She'll walk up to you and she'll give you a wag. And if you ask for her name she'll tell you her name is Lola L.O.L.A. Lola. Well I'm not the world's most poetical sole but when you look in her eyes I know you'll fall for our Lola. L.O.L.A. Lola
