Flash
I’m Homed
I had the pleasure of walking with Flash this morning. After an eager start, Flash walked very nicely by my side. On our return leg, we passed by a young Beagle and took the opportunity to make his acquaintance. After initial enthusiasm on both sides, Flash decided that he was not particularly interested and pulled back, disinterested. I think Flash is going to be fine with other breeds.

Penny
I’m Homed
Ohhhh Penny - what can I say?! At the kennels she is such a monkey! Growling at the other greys, barking, leaping around...... at ours - the exact opposite - great with all of ours and never muzzled now - doesn't bark, might get excited when we are preparing her dinner but spends all her time on her fav chair asleep! She is beautiful and hope someone can see through her naughtiness when she is at Daybreaks! She would be a permanent fixture at ours if we had room - I love her very much and hope someone will too very soon.

Jack hope you are rehomed soon,I have read some of the previous comments and feel that with time ,patience and commitment you will be a fantastic addition to anyone family. All greys can have the odd forgetful moment and can overcome this ,we found that obtaining a citrus (lemon works best) air freshner, nearby to the favoured toilet spot obviously dont leave for the dog to lick could harm if consumed.The dog avoids that spot .also let the dog know and praise him when he goes outside.I am sure your forever home will be found very soon.

Use dial a dog wash for bathing and grooming greys (www.dialadogwash.com). They were fantastic dealing with my very timid grey Lady (Gypsy) I was even allowed to watch the whole process. They groomed her in a heated van on my drive, she loved every minute of it. She looked and smelled gorg and even licked the lady goodbye .

Santa
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Just to add an update on Santa who is an absolute sweetie. He is still quite nervous when out but nowhere near as bad as he was. He is getting used to the regular dog walkers that we meet and will even let some of them stroke him. He is also starting to show his personality and runs around the garden with the other dogs and around the house, usually with one of our shoes in his mouth, which he them leaves in anyones bed or in the middle of the lounge. We are so glad we decided to take on this "unhomable" dog to give him a chance to be a dog and not just a commodity.

Marty (Mars Bar/Sprout)
I’m Homed
Just to let you all know how Marty is doing. He has setteled in really well, is eating like a horse and generally enjoying life. I tried leaving him by going out in the garden to clean out our chickens. Although he watched me go out and could not see me (but I could hear him) he didn't make a sound. He obviously needs the company of at least one other dog - here hes got four!!! We have tried our special balm on the sore spots he had ( on his neck, ear and the top of his tail) and they are clearing up really well. If anyone wants to try it, it is called Comfrey and Calendula balm from Dorwest veterinary - Dorwest Herbs Ltd - they are on the internet.
