BeckyB-F sell the kids buy the volvo and put the seats down? Not really!!! We were looking at a mercedes vito loads of room for everyone. Similar to what Emma has said about her hubbies van, they do a version which just looks like a big MPV.

My heart is heavy at just seeing you back on the homing page sweet girl. I am desperately trying to think with my head & not my heart & so I have to let you go little one. I feel so incredibly guilty for opening our home & hearts to you, only to take it from you again. I would dearly love to keep you, but i have to consider Ellie & the 5 children, who were absolutely terrified to witness the horror yesterday. We all know that it wasn't your fault & I will always blame myself - I know that Ruth will find you a very special forever home princess. I will never ever forget you Fizzy Pop & the bond we already shared in our short time together - be happy & be lucky baby, I will love you always sweet angel. XX ps. miraculously, Ellie is on the road to recovery & has no serious injuries. She is very bruised & very sore, but is out of danger thankfully. This makes things a little easier to bare - I would really like to thank you all, especially Ruth, for being so kind & understanding, and for supporting me through this incredibly difficult & heartbreaking decision. You are all very special people.

Hello Deb there is no need to apologize for having sent Fizz back, yu have to do what is right by Ellie cat as she was there first and hopefully she will be better soon and so will you. All dogs, not just greys have the instinct to go for cats, it can lie dormant but when you have a pack of dogs it can easily resurface....Fizz will find a new home, she is a gorgeous little girl and you have given her a start by having her in your home. i wish you and Ellie cat a speedy recovery and hope that your heart ache stops soon as well. much love Ina and the boys. xxxx

Hi Deb. On holiday and just read your message. My heart totally goes out to you because I know how bad you feel when something happens that you feel responsible for. I once trapped Gent's tail in my electric window on my car. It took 3 months to get his tail back to normal and I will never forgive myself for what happened. We all do the best we can for our Greys and no-one could doubt your commitment to them. Greyhounds are animals first and foremost, whose instincts can get the better of them whatever the circumstances and even the most experienced of Greyhound owners will recall a tale of some sorts during their time as owners. Please try not to be too hard on yourself and I hope that you feel better soon. Lots of love Mand, Gent & Emily xx

I agree with Ina....Tony and Will could be my choices too. Saw them both in our fleeting visit on Saturday morning. Those grey faces with their soft eyes just melt my heart. xxxx

Hi Deb, having read your comments on Fizz so far it is clear how hard you have worked with her and along with your help with Maisie, no one can question your dedication and commitment to giving these greys the best possible chances. I can totally empathise with your feelings as Roxy once got my cat after he ran in the front door as she was waiting to go out for a walk. She'd never shown any interest until then but as soneone else has said instinct kicks in and you couldn't have done any more than you clearly already did. Fizz will appreciate all you've already taught her which will help her find a new home. I hope you feel better soon both mentally and physically. Love and hugs, Laura and Roxy xxx

A Seat Alhambra or Ford Galaxy or similar, with the two back seats removed - there's still plenty of room for 5 inside as well. Sadly we traded ours in for a smaller model before we knew we were having greys...

Hi Deb, I hope it helped when I phoned you..... I know how heartbroken you are.... Fizz will find a home soon I am sure. It is always very difficult in the early days in homes with cats and nothing can be worse than going through what you did but you are doing what you feel is best for you and your family x
