Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
Oh my! What a day! I was not in last week so today I had a very busy day booked in the diary - three corn bookings, nails to trim, mountains of paperwork and the phone did not stop! I am unfortunately getting lots of calls about separation anxiety and today a 7 year old girl (homed direct from a trainer who had been in a home for 3 years) was brought in for rehoming - it is heartbreaking. I am very thankful for the offers of help with her and she has gone out to a foster home this afternoon. I am sorry for all the missed calls - I have tried to return all that I can. Running Daybreaks can be extremely busy, stressful and emotional sometimes - however the fabulous team I have with Kate, Jo and all the volunteers along with all the support I have, allows me to keep helping all the dogs that come to Daybreaks. We are now welcoming back our volunteers but we are still only having a limited number on site so please let us know if you would like to pop back to help. For all visitors we are still operating an appointment system and I am pleased to say we have plenty of new arrivals, viewings and homings booked!

I am desperate need of a foster or permanent home for a little girl who is coming in this afternoon - she is 6 years old. She was adopted directly from a trainer approximately 3 years ago. Please call me on 0121 782 7702 if you think you can help. Ruth

Russ does not like to get wet. So we thought he needed a bath. When you mention the word bath he runs off down stairs and it’s a battle to move him. So I came out the bathroom wetter then he was. It was funny but hard work.

Narla (Lisa)
I’m Homed
Lisa went for another short walk this morning and this afternoon a stroll around the sand run. Her leg is getting much stronger now, hopefully in a few weeks she will be almost brand new! She is such a happy girl and loves any sort of fuss. She would benefit from a home where there are other dogs for company....so if you are looking for a sister to you excisting dog or dogs, please give Lisa a canance. Xxx

A little dryer today! :)) George and his Dad came back for a visit this morning. Lucy gave George a bath, don't think he was a big fan of the hairdryer! He did look super handsome afterwards. 🙂 He had a good first night and this morning he went on the school run. 🙂 Today a visit to his Dad's place of work was planned. :)) Xxx Penny had a trip to the park with Norman. She had a great time and was a very good girl. Xx I managed to go out for a walk this afternoon and had the pleasure of taking Parker. What a super boy he is! Lucy took new photos of some of the dogs, aided by our lovely volunteer Jan. :)) Thank you so much to the people who brought donations of bedding and also stamps for our recycling scheme. 🙂 Xxx
