Ben
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Ben looks so adorabale, that I can't help feeling so sad for him. Is he the sort of doggie that would benefit from a greyhound companion ? We have had our female greyhound for about 4 months now, but she hates it when I have to go out and leave her alone in the house. I would like our greyhound to meet Ben to see how they get on .

Hi Jenny, Ben is getting lots of attention and has been home with me a few times where he has been a perfect gentleman - so well behaved and not at all stressed. At the kennels he is quiet but that is his nature - a real gentle Ben. We have had quite a few enquires - I am sure he will be picked soon. He is getting extra cuddles from everyone as he is so adorable. Please don't worry about him. We have put him in the big run with Ashley and he loves laying on the sofa in the sunshine! Ruth xx

Glen is just so lovely, i really have taken to him, he spend some of the afternoon sharing the run with Rossi and Toby and he looked so at home with them. he then had a little play with me in the yard and went to lie on a makeshift bed in the store watching the world go by, so cute. xxx

Hi everyone! I finally went home today and so far so good! I have done all my business outside (apart from one accident when my reflection in the mirror made me jump!) I have been following my new mum, dad and human sisters around, and have had some great fun playing with my grey brother Kevin in the garden. He's a bit boring though as he only wants to play for a short while then goes inside to have a snooze. I'm too busy nosing around to snooze! Mum says I'll definately sleep tonight as I must be worn out! Wishful thinking... I've had a walk around the park, scoffed all my dinner and even had a bath with Kevin this afternoon and my tail hasn't stopped wagging yet! I met one of the cats who didn't look very impressed when I barked at him, but that was only because I wanted to play! I heard another cat hiss at me from beneath the bed, but I haven't actually seen her yet. Anyway, gotta go, have people to check up on... Love and licks Sadie xxx (Shiran)

Ben
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I cant reitterate enough how i am willing to answer any questions anyone may have who is thinking about rehoming Ben. Im so glad he is able to get some affection at the kennels as he really deserves it. If it was just us at home Ben would still be here with us but it wasnt fair to seperate ben from the rest of our manic family when he enjoys company so much. It simply was a case that our children were too fast and noisy for ben and it was becoming stressful for him. I can honestly say there was no problems with ben at all in any other area-in fact he put our yorkie to shame with his dignified persona. Please, please, please contact me if you have any questions about him. xx

had a big cuddling session with Ben, he really is a lovely dog and anyone who might be interested in him would probably benefit from getting in touch with Jenny who had him as she will be able to give a better idea how he behaves in everyday situations. my problem is not enough room and having to work full time other wise i'd have an extension to Daybreaks kennels in Derby with lots of permanent residents and Ben would be one of the first to come home with me. x
