So very heartbroken to hear this, I know how devastating it is to lose your beloved hound, I have lost two to Rainbow Bridge since Christmas. You are in my thoughts and in my prayers. Please take some solace that you gave her the best of lives. Jo x

LILAH (HONOUR LASS) 14 May 2011 – 8 April 2021 Our beautiful Lilah has gone to Rainbow Bridge. She was off colour for a couple of days and then, after a visit to our vet, it was confirmed she had liver problems. She declined very quickly after that. Thankfully, we were able to say goodbye to her in the quiet of our home, and she left us gently and peacefully. We are heartbroken. Although a nervous girl, she came on in leaps and bounds over the years. It was so rewarding to see her grow in confidence and trust, coming out of her shell and responding shyly, but well, to people other than those in her family. We regularly visited the local care home, where she was adored by the residents and staff, and enjoyed attention in a calm environment. She loved her walks, but from time to time she would refuse point-blank to go further than the post box at the end of the road and point her nose towards home! Her greetings were like no other. Even if I popped to the shops for ten minutes I would so look forward to her rushing to the hall for kisses on my return. She loved her bed, her food and her ball and was quite a playful character. We had some fun games in the garden and made such lovely memories together. Thank you to Daybreaks for bringing her to us. Our sweet Lilah, you were so very gentle and loving. How we miss you and look forward to seeing you again, together with Grandma and Granddad, at Rainbow Bridge. Mama, Papa, Chloe and Lily. xxxx

Finn (Phoenix)
I’m Homed
So many lovely hounds looking for their forever home don't know how Fat Neck Finn is going to choose. He is currently trying to lose a little off the hips (if he has as much luck as me in this department, no chance) as he had put on 4kgms over the year. Cutting down the size of meals is going well, and less treats, but I have to change the route of walks as if he meets Dave an old chap with a pocket full of Gravy bone treats, you can forget the diet, equally, we cannot go past the chip shop early evening as anyone eating outside throws him a few chips, and passing Greggs has to be a military operation in case there is a sausage roll dropped on the pavement. At some angles when I look at him I think maybe he is a bit slimmer, but it's maybe the way the light falls on him or wishful thinking, or maybe I should have gone to Specsavers !!!

I came in to use the sand run today and had a lovely cuddle with Phoenix. He is just a beautiful gentle soul. I do hope he finds his forever home soon x

Popped into the kennels this morning to drop something off, and met this gorgeous boy. Well - I am in love again!!! What a stunner - he lapped up all the fuss & cuddles I could offer, and is one of those souls who looks directly into your eyes, and captures your heart. I know he was quite stressed and overwhelmed on his arrival on Tuesday - but he is now a happy chappy to be at Daybreaks whilst waiting for his lovely new home. xx

Tessie
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Thank you all, Tess has had problems before and she had a scan which showed no problems. After that she stopped for a while but the last week she has been moving from bed to bed and she had always wet so it was getting to be a problem for her and us. The Vet has prescribed Incurin Tablets 1/2 a tablet each day and we have to phone him Monday and if it is no better we can up to 1 a day. So we will see how things go , hopefully the tablets will work and Tess will be more comfortable. She has gained a nice new bed anyway. Thanks again.

Hi Tessie's Mom, my Twiggy also had a blader problem. The vet prescribed Incurin Tablets and Propalin Syrup for her. They were really successful and she had no side effects. Do hope the medication will help Tess. Xxx

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
A very different day today, much quieter than Sunday when you didn't get a minutes break in the busyness, but still felt quite busy. It was lovely to get updates on the recently homed hound, all are doing amazingly well. It was great to see Caesar today, Erik came in with him and Charlotte to collect some food, he is doing well (apart from a little altercation with Barney this morning). Thanks as always to Denise, Dave and the Wednesday walkers for their help today. Our new arrival from yesterday is the gorgeous Phoenix, he is such an affectionate lad. Hoping you are all staying safe and well. X
