Katie

Did a bit of training with this really clever girl today and she soon realised that if she left the fluffy toy and came when called she'd get a nice piece of sausage 🙂 Like her kennel mate Cornelia Katie was very bright ...they are both such lovely girls there must be someone out there who wants an intelligent greyhound to have lots of fun with ?

Isla (Cornelia)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Well I'm not sure that the lovely Cornelia had an ideal birthday but she did have lots of hot dog sausages 🙂 I took her out for a walk with Amy and Paul and two other greys .. we'd done a bit of Clicker training before we set off and Cornelia was wearing a nice harness made by Mekuti with one of their double ended leads (we use them all the time in TTouch) When she does something really good like look away from a bouncy dog or from a scarey thing .. like the loose labrador in the lane 🙁 she gets a really nice treat to show her that was just what was wanted :). Cornelia was very quick to understand and I used the word 'here' when I wanted her to look at me or come .. she stared at a squirrel but didn't do anything else then I asked her to come 'here' and she walked off with me so got a reward. She was quite worried by the loose lab and was panting as he headed our way but then he stayed by his car so she walked past him tho couldn't eat a treat 🙁 on the way back we just walked a bit quicker past him and she made no other reaction so she got a nice treat for being such a brave girl again 🙂 She's very bright and picks things up quickly so hopefully someone will love to have such a clever grey as a pet 🙂 Julie x

Barney
I’m Homed
Barney Blog.. He just loves be around you and will follow you in acticipation of anything remotely interesting happening! Barney is such a happy boy and he greets you with a 'smile' and a waggy tail. We have discovered over the weekend that Barney likes a cup of tea - he's obviously helped himself to someones cuppa in the past! He also has enjoyed a raw carrot and a banana of all things! Barney had a sleepover night at my friends house with her hounds and behaved really well the other dogs. He showed no sign of dominance or aggression towards any of them. He is still aware of other breeds but hope that we can work up to introducing him when he's not quite so excitable. He's a real 'lounger' and loves to cuddle up to you on the sofa, although his psacial wareness seems to be lacking sometimes as he'll endeavour to fit in a space you'd fit a toy poodle! He came the kennels Sunday with me and he still doesn't like walking past the farm. I walked him on a harness and that has helped to get him 'moving' when he needed a nudge. He's really progressed well the last few days, as he's a clever boy. I'd love to see him re-homed with someone who can continue his training, your work I promise will be made more than worthwhile! If you want to meet Barney, get in touch with the trust and I can arrange via Ruth, alternatively he'll be back at the kennels next weekend. Tina x
