Welcome to Daybreaks Talk
Welcome to the Comments Page! Here, you’ll find a chronological collection of all the comments shared by our community about the greyhounds looking for their forever homes, our events, and other updates. It’s a wonderful space to see what others are saying, share your thoughts, and be part of the conversation as we work together to find loving families for these amazing dogs.
This page also highlights the incredible efforts of our dedicated volunteers, whose love and commitment make everything we do possible. From caring for the dogs to organizing events and fostering a supportive community, our volunteers are at the heart of Daybreaks. Their passion and hard work ensure that every greyhound receives the attention, care, and second chance they deserve.

Toby
I’m Homed
little monkey did climb on the sofa today totally unaided and got off as well, second time he tried to get off he lost his balance and crashed into the radiator....sofa is now totally out of bounds as he has bruised himself.....he is trying to do too much and it's hard to stop him hurting himself, he has little vision in his left eye now which is causing the problems as he obviously can't judge distances and objects too well at the moment....apart from that he is doing brilliantly.....A very Happy Christmas to everyone from all of us in Derby 🙂 xxxxxx

Bob

poor little man, it's not easy for any dog to live with small kids and its up to the parents to monitor the kids' behaviour....obviously better for Bob to come back then an unfortunate incident happening and him getting the blame. we shall find you your forever home as you are a super boy. xxx

Reubes
I’m Homed
Reubes Update: First thank you for all your best wishes, I was gutted I had hurt my boy but he has most definately forgiven me. Its healing well, still on antibiotics as a precaution. Staples out next Friday all being well. Reubes is only occasionally trying to lick at the wound now the dressing is off, so I'm muzzling him when out & about. He cried a bit getting the dressings changed so I'm relieved thats stopped. My vet was worried that R would damage his tail further bouncing around, but my boy is truely retired and doesn't move for 98% of the day and very reluctantly walks for more than 10 mins!! Ha Ha!! Thankgoodness its just a tail injury and nothing like what poor Toby has gone through. luv t

Smooch
I’m Homed
Hi 'IloveFoxy!' Smooch is still on trial but doing so well so far! She tricked us into believing that she was a grump at the kennels who preferred her own company.... she loves her new greyhound friend Bella and her new family - not one grumpy moment so far :-))))))))
