Daybreaks Diary!

All in all a fantastic day, extremely busy first thing, in fact it was manic for want of a better word! Finally ate at around 6.30 this evening!! Little Chloe had a viewing with a family with two small fluffy dogs, she was greyt with them and consequently found herself reserved, so very pleased for her. Lorna had several pampers and there were lots of sand run bookings. The highlight of the day was another viewing, the gentleman has two greyhounds a boy and a girl and had sadly recently lost a lurcher just two weeks short of her 18th birthday. He wanted a girl and looked at Trudie, Penny and Lisa. He had been told that two males together was not a good idea. However, handsome Samson came out and all three got on really well to the point that his male dog rested his head on Samson who showed no reaction whatsoever. We went and had a chat in the office whilst Alison kept a careful eye on them. Fantastic news, he was reserved and will have a fantastic home. I am so very happy for him, just goes to show you can have an idea of what type of hound you want and end up with quite the opposite! Thanks so much to Dave, Denise and Alison for their help today, all dogs had morning and afternoon walks. As always stay safe and well. X

OMG!!! This is just the best news, we will be opening a bottle of wine later to celebrate (we don't need much of an excuse really, lol!!). Samson it's about time my gorgeous boy. It's uncanny but Michael & I were just having a discussion about bringing you home for a few days to give you a break from kennels and see how you fared in a home environment! We are over the moon. xxxxxx

Another busy day.... Beautiful Parker arrived this morning and was reserved this afternoon! 🙂 He has a lovely family waiting to take him home. Xxx We also had viewings for the girls, but not quite right this time. However we have more viewings tomorrow. :)) Our fabulous Alex went off to his new home this afternoon. We will miss him but so happy he has been given the chance of a wonderful home. He jumped up into the car and was ready to start his new life with his super new family. Xxx We had several visitors for food including handsome Stanley and recently homed Yoda! He looked fab. 🙂 Xxx Our morning walkers spotted a little wood mouse near the top of the lane, obviously in distress. when Jess arrived, as she is now a vet nurse we sent her to investigate. Sadly he was quite poorly so Jess took him to the veterinary surgery where she works and he was pts . (: Thanks so much to everyone for their help today. Wishing everyone a very Happy bank holiday...can't believe it's May already! Xxx Xxx

I am so sad that Samson is still in the kennels. He is a lovely gentle boy, walks beautifully on the lead and has been to the park with Liz_Beth and had a glowing report. Please don't be put off by his size, my biggest greyhound curled up into the smallest dog, much smaller than my small girls!! Yes he is a big black dog, but no matter what the colour they should all be given the chance of a loving forever home, it's their personality that counts, not the colour. Please will someone give this boy his forever home. X

Our little Kylie has amazingly reached another milestone today; 15 years and 10 months old, and now as an only-dog. She's managed a little sniff outside the front garden and I'm just about to do her some pasta. We're taking it day by day with her due to her age but she seems happy and bright enough, even if a bit wobbly.

Ha ha Jetlucy I am exactly th same, our boy Douggie doesn't suffer separation anxiety at all but I certainly do, the longest he is ever left is 2 1/2 hours on a Wednesday morning when I volunteer at our local PDSA shop, but I can't stop thinking about him and I rush back home, I walk through the door and he doesn't even get up and greet me, I know that's a great result but I can't help but feel a bit sad sometimes lol, little tinker xxxxxx
