Rosie B
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Poor Rosie has been bitten and is now at the vets being stitched up as we speak. She will come home with me tonight for a bit of extra TLC until she is better.

That is such sad news and my thoughts are with Marty's owners right now.It definitely sounds like he had a loving home though which is everything that anyone could have wanted for him. Sleep tight Marty. x

It is with great sadness that I have just heard that Marty has gone to Rainbow Bridge. The vets found a large tumour which was inoperable and sadly they let him go. He was a fabulous character and I will miss him very much. Run free fella x

Jack
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I have spoken to Jack's new owner Nicky today and he is doing fantastic! Despite one of the Bengal cats almost screaming at him on a regular basis, he is taking everything in his stride and is the perfect house guest. Nicky seems to even think he is clever enough to recognise certain areas as his first home is not far from where he is now living. I am really pleased things are working out for this fella.

Joe
Over the Rainbow Bridge
My Jojo Very handsome boy. His a lovely grey, who loves attention and fuss. Will stand there and let you groom him and clean ears/teeth. Walks well on the lead, doesn't pull 🙂 . Once he settles down he won't be shy, his true nature will come through. He does bark when its meal time but settles down once his being fed. He was an excellent runner and really loved his racing so he deserves a loving forever retired home 🙂 I'm sure you won't be here long my boy xxxxxx

Breeze (Rita)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Little wiggler Well shes a lovely friendly girl. Rita got on with all the greys, she's hyper as she's still young but she does settle down and is a quiet kennler. Very playful so will suit a family that can give her attention and plenty of play time. She'd always rob my glooves out my pocket, and would get very excited when i'd put them on, loved playing fetch and tug with them. When she would get excited and wag her whole body would wiggle 🙂 . Very pretty little madam, and will be an asset to any house hold. Enjoy your retired life xxxxxx

Fudge
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hello, thanks for asking how I am and sorry it’s taken me so long to reply but you see I lead a very busy life and don’t get much time to surf the net. I have settled in well and have 2 greyhound friends, I tried to boss them around quite a lot when I first arrived here but they won’t have any of it and I’m not even convinced I’m top dog! I have a lovely large garden to run around in and play, I get regular walks where I get the opportunity to shout and swear at every other dog we meet, I have to shout at the little dog next door every time I hear him and also the 2 large dogs at the bottom of our garden they shout back which is great fun! Along with all that I have to keep an eye on what’s going on outside through the front window, shout at the hoover and printer, check out what’s on the kitchen worktops and still have to sleep, eat and get cuddled. So all in all a busy but very rewarding life. Love Fudge XXX

Freda
I’m Homed
All is going really well with Freda, she was quiet and clean overnight. Eating well (with no barking!) and every time a packet rustles she's there with raised ears & expectant looks!! She must have one of the loudest sniffs I've ever heard, it's so funny to hear. So far so good, she is settling well and has developed a very waggy tail bless her.

Norris
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Norris is absolutely loving his little walks. He's mainly doing twice a day for 10 mins. As long as he's not accompanied by Lola (the sniffer dog) we can get round a little block at a very steady walk pace in that time. It might sound weird, but I'm so happy when he cocks his leg up one of the trees in our road !! It's just really nice to see him allowed out and doing what boys do best! Quite annoyingly (speaking as owner of 2 girls who go mental....) he doesn't seem to react to cats when out walking. We saw one on a drive on Sunday afternoon so I deliberately crossed the road towards the cat. His ears went up in the air as if to say "Hm.. how interesting... you're not a greyhound" and then he just looks away. We'd better not walk him too often with the girls as we don't want him to learn any of their more undesirable cat-spotting habits! x
