Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
Today can only be described as sheer madness!!!! I would like to thank Denise, Dave, Kitty, Carol and Alison for the I help today. We had a viewing at 10am, Molly was a firm favourite, they took her on the morning walk and made a lovely donation to be allowed to take her out, but the family had two other dogs to view elsewhere. Sadly for Molly another grey took their dogs fancy so they have taken the other dog on trial. They were so apologetic and thanked us so much for our time and will recommend others to us. Sad for Molly but has to be right for everyone concerned. After all it is another grey going to a loving home albeit not from us. Well, Warrior (Steve) and Harry have both gone on trial to their respective families with existing dogs. So very happy for both of them, good luck kids, hope all goes well and you get your forever homes! It was lovely to see so many ex Daybreaks hounds today, always great to have a catch up and a cuddle (with the dogs that is, don't think the owners would object if we tried to hug them, lockdown is easing)! Well the message as always is stay safe and well all. Xx

Also met Barney today. He was wagging his short tall for all he was worth. Such a happy friendly boy who from I have heard has become much calmer and well behaved. He even took an interest in Finn who by this time just wanted to get home for his dinner. His wonderful foster family so want a loving forever home for him, and he really deserves it. xxx

Loveheart, it was an absolute pleasure finding Fat Neck Finn a companion today, no patients needed at all, it was a total pleasure. Again how funny that you were looking for a different type of dog and Finn and Warrior (Steve) seemed to be so comfortable with each other. Hope all goes well. X

Harry
I’m Homed
What a lovely update already, I confess I got rather emotional when I heard you were taking him home (in a good way of course). His foster dad was so very happy, I do think he had mixed emotions but really wanted a lovely forever home for Harry. So very happy as I know when you came in on Friday you were looking for a younger dog, after meeting several Harry seemed to be the one Sadie was most comfortable with. Isn't it funny how things can take a different path that you don't expect? Hoping all continues to go well. Thank you so very much for giving this special boy a chance. Xx

What a sweet happy boy Mikey is, and his soulmate Molly is a sweetie. I would have taken them home in a heartbeat, but Finn is 9 and I don't think 2 more plus Warrior would have been fair to him in one go ! I pray they will find a home together, Surely someone wants a "ready-made" family to support each other? fingers crossed xx

Molly

Finn met Molly & Roxie today in his lonely hearts search, but neither of them "swiped right" lol They are both lovely and happy girls so I hope they find their forever homes soon. I think they were looking for a younger boyfriend as Finn is not into playing, just eating sleeping and a nice walk. Just like me lol. Good luck girls x

Well within 10 minutes of getting in the house Warrior (Steve! my husbands idea for a name!!! lol) had tried to get in bed with Fat neck Finn, and Finn was having none of it, and also stolen the end off my chicken & sweetcorn sandwich that I stupidly put on a plate on a coffee table unguarded !! Finn never steals food now so I was off my guard, the lesson was learnt. He has enjoyed his meal tonight and is learning what is OK and what is not. At the moment Finn is his usual laid back self, and Steve is asleep on the bed I have told him is his., but now Finn won't lie by him so all is quiet, early days so fingers crossed. Thanks to Joe for her patience in helping to get Finn a friend, who by the way he enjoys his food will soon be known as "Big Steve" lol Thanks Ruth for pointing us in the right direction, as I said fingers crossed. x
