Ronnie
I’m Homed
Ronnie was such a brave boy today. As he has an auto immune disease of his eyes he has to have injections directly into his eyes (as well as eye drops). Andre the track vet has said that anyone considering adopting Ronnie can be assured that he will treat this condition for free which is beyond generous. I really hope this fella will be chosen soon as he is a fabulous boy.

Joey is a very poorly boy at the moment. He struggled coming round from his anaesthetic and Debbie the vet nurse took him home last night to keep an eye on him. His throat has swollen and we are awaiting for blood test results to see what is the next step with him. Until then, he will be stopping at our house where he will get ultimate TLC x

Goldie has been returned as she is still showing interest with the cats. As the family are upset at returning her, I would be grateful if there are no comments left about her return.

Don't worry you can get all of these things at the kennels... Blue and red look fab on the black boys! I've just ordered a blue blizzard for my fly! There are loads of lovely house collars and martingales at the kennels too.. Jack is handsome so he will look fab in anything! You should either fetch him sunday or come back sunday with your credit card ansd I will shop with you ha ha! I love buying for greys... They look fab in everything. As for treats, mine love pigs ears, liver treas, dentastix, basically in moderation. A fat greyhound isn't a good look and it isn't healthy. As long as they don't have chocolate or onion your pretty safe with most treats. I avoid bones cos mine get a funny tummy. If you feed him burns he will be getting everything he needs diet wise and you can add rice, pasta, pilchards, tuna etc. Oily fish is fab for a shiny coat. You'll soon learn what he loikes and doesn't like and everything I've listed above is available from the kennels. Don't worry you'll do great! Xxxxxx

I've only bought some treats and foodie things so far. Handsome boy collars and coats?? I might struggle with that one. I can barely buy things that look good on me, let alone my new companion! What would you class as a handsome boy collar and coat? I'm colourblind too so this could be potentially disastrous! I've heard about the kongs so I'll get one of those and I saw a squeaky toy in the shop today but it was that loud, everyone around me in the shop stopped and looked at me like I had a intestinal problem! Do greyhounds like bonio's and stuff like that? I'll get Dentastix and I've seen some cheesy treats but I don't know what greyhounds are intolerant to. I think your advice will be invaluable because I haven't shopped for toys, collars or coats yet. Thanks a lot Fi, it's appreciated xxx

Ronnie was the lucky one of the three boys being castrated today - he is off to stop at Ray and Val's house tonight where he will be guaranteed lots of cuddles.

What is on your list so far?? You need a handsome boy collar, handsome boys coats, one for rain, one for cold in the house and one for wet and cold outside....toys, the squeaky ones mine go mad for! its also worth investing in a kong (you can get these from the kennels)... as they provide lots of fun with a bit of peanut butter smeared on the inside! Also denta sticks, tooth brush, toothpaste etc. Whoever does your homing will show you everything you need. Have a look at my boys as i was boring you about them..the are on here Glynn and floppy on here or on the Perry barr rgt page on FB i put some pics on there the other day! They are all just too handsome! Let me know whats on your list and ill fill in the blanks...although not of the things my boys have are essential, i like to spoil them! xxxx

Hi Fi. I'll definitely be visiting with Jack. I was told that I could get his nails cut at Daybreaks as and when he needs (or until I'm confident enough to do it without)! Although I shall buy a lot of the stuff from the kennel to support the trust, I'm also writing a shopping list and struggling to know what goodies to get for him. Any suggestions?? xxx

If he said no then you need to try another tactic! Ask him if you can take her on a day trip with Iris, she is cat friendly too :o) xxxxx

This little lady is so like Iris in the second photo. I have asked my husband if we can have her but sadly he said ''no''. I wish her good luck in finding a home.
