Ged (Zion)

We have walked and fostered Zion for the morning, he has been a dream to look after and has got on very well with our grey James! They are both snoozing at the moment 🙂

My hubby (who either ignores me or shuts me up with a stern "NO!" when I talk about a kennel dog, which I admit is quite often) actually agreed that Gemma could have a holiday here! Triumphant for all of 5 mins, I then realised that we're away for one of the days so she can't come afterall :0( Nevermind, it seems that there's already lots of lovely people offering her a restful recuperation elsewhere :0) Em x

I had great fun yesterday officially adopting Storm and doing some serious 'girly' shopping! Thank you all so much for the love & kindness you have shown to both me and Storm and for letting me go home with my precious girl after the attempted switcheroo and dognapping!! Love to you all, Tracy, Storm & Glen XXX

Oh little Gemma, hope someone can give you a little holiday! I would love to help and know Roxy would love the company but we're moving out over that week so know it would be too unsettling for a gorgeoous girl who just wants some rest. I'm sure you'll be no trouble for whoever opens their home, no matter how briefly. xxx

Gemma
I’m Homed
I am appealing for a short term foster home for Gemma whilst Daybreaks are closed from 4th June for one week. Gemma has a previous hip injury which means she has to have very limited exercise at the moment and a low bed. I am trying to prevent her from being transfered to Barkinn Kennels (where all the Trust dogs are going whilst Daybreaks are closed) to help with her recouperation. She is an adorable little girl - great with other greys and clean in her kennel. She is happy to be left and is very quiet. Please give me a call if you think you can help. Ruth 0121 782 7702

I have seen Storm and her new mum a couple of times at kennels and they clearly love each other. Storm is so laid back and affectionate. Happy retirement.

Bless him.... guess I am too used to having dogs after an op.... don't worry Fi, he will be ok. Best not to bother him too much - let him rest, try him with some food tomorrow and by tomorrow he will be bouncing back to normal..... give me a call if you are worried x Wrap him up, keep him warm and as quiet as possible x
