Amber (Bow)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I have been overwhelmed at the support and offer of help for Amber today.... thank you everyone. She is going to meet Jay the greyhound tomorrow with dad Simon and fingers crossed she is a good girl! She met Tracy with Reubes and Blossom today too and Blossom put her in her place! The lovely Myrna may take her for some serious training for a few days too! I have left her this evening for approx 3 hours and she was settled all evening (we could see on the cameras and enjoyed her Kong). She is settling well, calming down and responds well to all we ask of her 🙂

Oscar (Cliff)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Just to report that Cliff - now Oscar - is currently laying on his back in his bed with his legs in the air. He adores cuddles and fuss, and is learning that not all food is his. He hasn't attempted the stairs so far, nor the sofa. He's not too sure about other dogs but we're going to take him to classes. We even managed a bit of recall yesterday. We adore him xx

Evi (Tippie)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I would love to attend a first aid course if there was one local . It must have been so scary for you all and it would be really helpful if this happens to anyone else to know what to do. So pleased EVI is well.The kennels now stock a vegetarian pigs ear(no joke) which the greys love and it melts a bit more than a real one so that might be one answer if you are worried about giving the real ones as treats.Not sure Tippie and Evi would be impressed though.

Aww, lovely. Nice name too! I've just counted 7 black boys (and 2 black girls) on the available dogs board. This MUST increase their chances of being snapped up rather than once again being overlooked for the brindles and fawns ?? :O)

Ruth, I'm working these days, so I don't think I could manage that long as it covers weekdays. But I maybe able to take her again on, say, for the weekends if you like (the Saturday-Sunday) - 19th-20th and 26th-27th.

Thank you Emma - First Aid for dogs does sound good as they're always picking up little injuries and things but this was the scariest yet! Definitely would love it if you could keep us posted on the course - it would depend if it tied in with work, but it would be good to know if you decide to go, so thank you for taking the trouble to post this! xx

I just love this girl .. if I didn't have a baggage of a greyhound Amber would be grabbed by me 🙂 ... I love dogs who are bright and intelligent cos I love getting out walking with my dogs, training them and generally having fun with them. My first lurcher many years ago was a Lab/greyhound and he was energetic and very quick to learn 🙂 Ambers still a baby in dog years so will learn very easily - as long as you teach her the right things .. all dogs pick up the things we don't want them to learn if we don't show them or teach them 🙂 Don't forget you get four free training sessions with her and it sounds like all she needs is some boundaries and lots of love.... but in the right balance 🙂 like all dogs.
