Thanks DuleekDandy - she is doing so well, it's lovely to see the change in her in such a short time. Here's hoping that her forever home is just around the corner, she really deserves it.

hi Caroline, i was with Nellie when she met Sara's dog Charlie and she was as good as gold with him and he is not even a greyhound, she has met all my 4 greys and she was fine...sometimes dogs get labelled by trainers as not other dog friendly and it does them a real disfavour. My McKenzie came with the same label and he came to live with us when we still had our old boy Monty ( a non grey) and also Rossi and Toby. since then we lost Monty but have got ~Daisy, he has also had Ruth's Joe staying for his holidays and has had other dogs in the house and has been no problems....i would imagine that Nellie is much the same...why not just pop over with Max aand see he likes her and she likes him, its the only way to find out for sure. good luck...Ina and her four rascals 🙂 xxx

What a lucky girl to be staying with you for a bit - I'm sure it will help her enormously to find a new home. She sounds like an absolute star. Special xxx for Freda

Max (Jose)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
HI have you thought of trying Max with a harness I am sure Julie would be able to advise on which would be best.Max is a bit like a couple of boys who have been training and they seem to be easier to manage on a harness.

So happy to report that Freda continues to go from strength to strength. We had a "mini awareness roadshow" up at Blooms Garden Centre after people spotted her sitting like a star whilst we had our morning coffee at the Patio Cafe! She met next door's yappy Northumberland Terriers this morning and the only reaction she had, when the female made a barking lunge at her, was to look suprised, step back and sit down! She is really beginning to listen and respond so well to instructions, and has been clean every night since arrival. She is shaping up to be a truly beautiful companion for some lucky person. x

I have been told that she needs to be kennelled on her own, so her trainer said,I'm a little concerned about Max, wouldn't want him to be hurt. Can Ruth or any of the regular helps tell me if she is ok with the bother
