Alfie! It took me a while to gain his trust but i took baby steps with him and he soon showed his gentle nature. He loves corned beef, thats how i won him over :). Watching him progress from being shy to being able to take treats from my hand and letting me groom and clip his nails was amasing! he likes to lean on you (as you can tell by the photo, they are my legs) to feel safe and loves a nice gentle stroke behind the ear, he will stand there for hours. His a gorgeous looking boy aswell. His a little shy with the lead going over his head, but i make it out as if its not a big deal and his fine with it, he troots along next to you very nicely with a loose lead, i always walk in front when i go through doors etc as he doesnt like people behind him! i know he will make a fantastic pet, and can only get better with the help of the daybreak staff 🙂 if you need anythink just ask! xxxx

Star

Still being a star, woke up and she had sneeked up on the bed in the night (without waking us) and looked really funny with her legs in the air xxxx Still occassional nervous when meeting people in the street etc but soon relaxes. She is very much a pet, and really loves her runs, its funny watching our lurcher try and keep up with 3 greys. 9 times out of 10 she ignores the cats, but occassionally is v v interested, but not aggressive, so we are working on it. xxxxx We adore her xxxx

Hiya hmmm as a big sister myself I'm with Sid LOL ... my grey is just 3 and very annoying ooppps I meant a delight to have around LOL She's very playful and eventually my lurcher just did a little snap at her .. and she sulked for hours- ever seen a greyhound's bottom lip tremble 🙂 but it was what she needed to understand that she can't go on and on and on. It sounds like Sid is doing the same - just nicely putting her in her place 🙂 so as long as she doesn't keep pestering him I'd just keep an eye on them but I would stop her if she does pester him. Yep I'd take all her toys up whilst you're not there .. I'm not saying my lurcher is miserable and a spoilsport but my Lucy loves flinging the squeaky ones about and is very annoying - and then I'd find Charlie had got them all in his bed and Lucy was looking bereft (again LOL) so if the toys aren't around they can't fall out over them. I'm sure you'll get there with the toileting especially when you can take her out for nice long walks. J x

Quick update on Perdi : Other than being a little knobbly in the right shoulder and occasionally walking with a bit of goose-step, Perdi is practically back to normal! We walk together every day and she can do up to 45 mins with no ill effects; the vet is astounded by her and is encouring us to walk her further each week to build her muscles ready for her knee op (if it's still needed). She's so happy and bouncy and I'm sure it's her happy disposition that pulled her through xxx

Seamus has just been returned by his owner who is distraught as she has health problems and he has started getting separation anxiety as she has to go to the hospital frequently.

Hi Julie, she is trying to get Sid to play, but not as much as i thought she would, she is more interested in me at the moment. She is nibbling at his neck though, and Sid seemed to enjoy it at first, but i told her 'No' as i thought she was trying to bite him. She has done it a few times since and this morning Sid barked at her and she stopped. Is this normal as i'm not sure if its aggression or affection? We are muzzling them both at night and during the day when we are out, and for now we have put the toys away and just get them out when we play with them. With regards to toileting still no change, but i'm sure we'll get there! It's all fun and games in our house at the moment...lol :)xx

Hi Sue .. all crossed this cunning plan works 🙂 and once she understands what's wanted they usually try to please - as they've been able to toilet when they need to as they've lived in kennels it can take a few days for them to 'get it' 🙂 Is she trying to get Sid to play? She's only a baby but you need to be careful he doesn't get very fed up and it all ends in tears .. good alternatives to use up her energy are Kongs (for both her and Sid and only when you are there to supervise) plus I'd be watching them carefully and telling her leave him before I think he's had enough. See you soon at class 🙂 J xx
