Read Wizard's story last night and feel absolutely heartbroken for him. I said that if I'd been at the kennels yesterday, I'd have had to have brought him home with me- no question! Thanks Gracie's Mum for looking after him for the timebeing, please keep us updated on his progress and let us know if there's anything you need for him, I'm sure we can put together a little SOS box for him. Hope everyone who was at Daybreaks yesterday feels a little brighter today - you all do a fantastic job and our family are eternally grateful to you all for introducing us to the most wonderful dogs in the world. Mand, Gent & Emily xxxx

Gypsy
I’m Homed
Just an update on Lady aka Gypsy. She's having a great time playing on Cannock Chase in the spring with the cocker spaniels. Unfortunatly we took her to the vets as she was drinking excessive amounts of water and had incontence issues. The real sad news is that she has been diagnosed with kidney failure therefore on medication for the duration of her life. She is fit and heathly at the moment and still runs round like an idiot, we will just have to keep an eye on her. We love her to bits and so happy we have got her.

After a good tea Wizard had a peaceful night and slept well. He is up and breakfasted, has had a quick play with a toy in the garden and is now snoozing again. He has been calm and sweet, got on great with the other dogs, enjoyed some love and fuss, and is quickly showing what a true gentleman he is.

Hi, I can get Tippie to Daybreaks tomorrow no problem if you or Daybreaks could give me an idea of time. She is the sweetest lady, clean in the house, quiet at night, playful, gets on great with Gracie and Rowan, fancies Wizard, fine with other breeds, loves fuss and cuddles, has the prettiest face, good on the lead ...... Can't think of a bad thing to say about her xxx

Cookie is soooo adorable and pretty, I think she would fit into our family lovely 🙂 I'm working on the other half letting us take you on a trial!! He's abit reluctant having another as Davey and Lucy are so settled together!! (He was like this about having two though, and the boys and I got round him lol) Davy and lucy are your auntie and Uncle too so I think you'd be a perfect new addition!! I'm working on it cookie!!!! xx

Before choosing a dog people should really consider if they are ready to commit a 100% to them and not give up at the first hurdle!! If you are the slighest bit unsure then you shouldn't offer a dog a home in the first instance!! It's unfair to take a dog out of kennels, put them into a home, and then return them because you've changed your mind!!! A dog needs time, love, and commitment, and the rewards are endless. I would never consider returning my two lovely grey's, weve worked through issusses they've both had and it's been worth all the hard work. After all none of us are perfect 2 legged or 4!! xxx

Will Tippie be at Daybreaks on Monday by any chance? We'd like to come across then if we can. We feel so terribly sorry for her, and so upset and shocked for Wizard whom we remember very well from when we came across to find a dog and settled on Mia.

So glad Aimee (Linda) is doing so well although am not surprised cos she is gorgeous. We took her to Solihull riding club when she was at the kennels and she was so lovely - she attracted some attention and a couple she met went on 2 adopt 3 greys (good on yer Sarah and Mark)!! And I was so glad 2 meet u and Crufts - oh I love happy endings x

Wizard is now where he belongs and we must now concentrate on his future and not dwell too much on his past, I am absolutely sure that a loving home is out there for him, thanks to Alison, Ruth and all at Daybreaks he will soon be back to the beautiful boy we know and love.

We are very proud of girls, Aimee came 5th in the Junior Handling Class at a charity dog show yesterday, she was so well behaved even when the owner of a minature long haired chihuahua came and stood by her in the show ring (Aimee did start licking her lips!) Her big sister Bonnie came 4th in the prettiest girl class. Both girls get on very well, Aimee has helped Bonnie to become more confident, we wouldnt be without our girls now, they are both a much loved part of our family.xxxx

A quick update on Wizard as there is obviously a lot of concern out there. Ruth has given me a lot of high nutrition food and advice on feeding Wizard to bring him back to full strength. He has already settled well, renewed his friendship with Rowan and Gracie, been flirted at by Tippie (who is a darling) and played with some toys, which was marvellous to see. He is following me around quite a lot and is asleep at my feet as I type. I see this as an good sign that he has not lost faith in humans despite his experience. As has been said below, thank goodness for Ruth and Daybreaks being there to take Wizard back and give him the chance to be cared for and found a more suitable home. The 5 cuddles he has received today have been passed on and more xxx

another story that breaks my heart, why do people not care for their dogs? we make it totally clear to them what their needs are and yet we see more and more of our gracious beauties returned in terrible condition,...it's simply unforgivable, good luck gorgeous little Tippie when you get your teeth sorted and lots of love to you. xxxxx
