Robbie is so quiet, sweet and gentle albeit massive! He intently sat with me last night watching Titanic - the TV seems to have him fixated! He has been totally clean in the house and quiet all night. His bruising and swelling following his castrate is starting to go down but as we are so full at the kennels, he will keep coming home with me until he finds a home - he is gorgeous!

Oh no ! exactly the same thing happened to us. We'd only had our greyhound 2 months and a big airdale terrier came bounding towards him and tried to bite him. Phil managed to back out of his collar and run off (i think i aged about 20 years that day !) I bought a harness off the internet - i chose a mekuti balance harness. 2 years later and it's still working really well and gives me peace of mind, whatever's going on. Best wishes.

Hi Sharon, websearch 'Mekuti'. We have just bought dog harnesses for our two younger newer greys to help stop them lunging at cats and other dogs. Marty, our newcomer is a powerful lad but when wearing the harness is much more managable and very secure. I'm not sure that we put the harness on exactly as shown in the blurb but it works for us. You can also use the lead as a single one attached to the harness which is adjustable around the shoulders. I ordered on line and it came within two days.

Agree with Ms Schnauzer (I am sure there's a "c" in it!) She's boootiful. Couldn't settle with Derry. Hopefully she can snare busy family.

hi was wondering if someone could give me some advice? Lily got out of her lead today which was tight as a dog was being aggressive to her the guy said keep your dog under control but she slipped her lead. is there a suitable greyhound harness we could use for her and are they suitable and safe. Thankyou Sharon

That's really good news, i did wonder how they would ever be able to part with him after all that time fostering and caring for him when he had those awful injuries, he must be so well settled now. Agree the Jones's are superstars!

I have had a lovely letter and photo of Stevie in his new home. He is now called Finlay and I am told he never seems to stand still and gets into lots of mischief running around with his toys!
