Kevin
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I can't quite believe it but we've had Kev for one year today - and what a year it's been! We first met and fell in love with Kev on Valentine's Day (how apt) and had a manic week dog-proofing our garden and home. We didn't expect to reserve a grey so quickly seeing as we have 2 cats and were labouring under the misapprehension that we'd have to wait for months for a cat and child friendly grey?!? We were so lucky to find Daybreaks kennels, and even more lucky to find our beautiful Kev! Seeing him blossom into a magnificent confident boy proudly strutting his stuff with his two grey 'sisters' has been wonderful. I might have mentioned this once or twice before ;0) but we love Kev utterly and completely and can't thank everyone at Daybreaks enough for helping us find him. We've made some fab friends along the way, but our thanks go especially to Vicky who fostered Kev when he became depressed at being in the kennels for so long, even though it broke her heart to hand him over to us. Thank you for trusting us with this wonderful boy! Em xxx

Oh guys! I know it can be a nightmare, but do persevere. Our cat was not at all impressed as we have introduced our greys into the home. She is most definately the boss and the dogs have been great, just learning to keep away from her. They can all happily sit int he same room now, although Ellie Cat is most definately top dog! I was warned to be very precautionary with the greys around the cat at first, bur actually i feared more their eyes and noses than i did the cat!!! Keep at it! X

Just an update on Lucy - her face has gone down loads but the drain is still draining and we are still mopping up blood everywhere! She has settled in a treat and is totally house trained and chilled out! I am taking her to the vets for a check up today and hopefully we will have the histology results soon.... fingers crossed that it is benign......

Maddy is settling in very well. She is very attached to her new bed in the lounge, has a very good appetite (when we are not looking)!! & is doing brilliantly with her toilet training - we haven't had a single accident yet. She is still sooooo timid and quiet but we are sure she will come out of herself as her trust grows. Great to have her home at last xx
