Fudge
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Jen, the food plays a MAJOR part in any dog's behaviour. He is an oldie now and should be on a good quality senior food such as Burns - you will notice a massive change if you do this. He was fed on Burns whilst at our house and most of the time he was relaxed & quiet - please give it a try. I can put you in touch with the Burns nutritionalist who is lovely and will help you loads especially with the quantity to give him to ensure you are feeding the right amounts. Foxy will steal anything going if it is left out but it is not good for him so please be vigilant with other food and discipline him so he knows it is not right to steal off plates especially from the children!

Fudge
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi, quick update n another plea 4 help as Fudge is starting 2 become a problem. He is as good as gold while on walks etc n is very friendly n loving (except 2 the cats lol) but he will eat anything he can get his paws on, eg loaf of bread still in the bag, food off the kids plates, this evening he snatched 3 naan breads out of Deks hand while he was prepping dinner, he will also eat the cats food and the cat litter and poop out of the litter tray. What can we do? He gets the same amount of food as Mystic & Cally n more often than not he helps Mystic in hoovering up any food that Cally leaves. He is starting 2 cause Dek 2 have 2nd thoughts about us keeping him, is there anything we can do 2 try n change his behaviour? He is now getting on really well with the other 2 n I really wanna keep him but I agreed when we took him on trial that if Dek said no 2 him staying then that was that. Please help xxx

Colin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi there all Colin fans! just a quick line to say Colin is settling in very well so far (of course this will take time, but so far, so good) - he has been a couple of nice long walks today in the woods with little ellie, followed by some sunbathing together in the garden! He has been a very good boy and is quickly learning the ways of the household, loves his bed and spends lots of time in it! but is always excited when its "walkies!" - will keep ya all posted and will send some photos when we get chance - Colin sends his love and wants to thank everybody at Daybreaks for looking after him so well! and a big thanks from us too!

This little lad is so full of character he is just adorable! I'm working so so hard to get my other half to let me have him but my pleas are falling on deaf ears! He's actually ignoring me when I mention floppy now :o( charlie seemed to like him too and they were lovely together at kingsbury! How can I change his mind... This is so so frustrating! Sorry for the rant xxx

Melissa has just been reserved by two of my very special friends; Marcella and Alan. Last night their precious greyhound Matey who was just 7 years old died suddenly. They are understandably devastated, as both Rob and I are and Foxy who was Matey's best friend as they used to run around together when Foxy stopped with Marcella and Alan. Melissa is Matey's half sister, sharing the lovely Icemaid Mindy as mum. I hope she brings as much joy to their lives as Matey did as he was a very special boy who will be really really missed by many people. Run free Matey - with many tears and much love from Auntie Ruth xxxxx
