Magic
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hello! (First big mistake) I keep looking at the Daybreaks website and I keep looking at Magic, she looks so lovely I can't believe she hasn't been snapped up yet. My second big mistake was looking at Magic's family tree, turns out she and Willow have the same Dad! ... I wonder if Willow would like a little sister ... ?!?!

Barney
I’m Homed
hi ruth and everyone at the kennels, just thought i'd update you on how barney rubble is doing. he has settled so well and hasn't made a sound from day 1 and has had no toileting accidents either from day 1. its like hes always been here. we had my mums dog over for 5 days and he was a perfect gentleman with her. she however was a bossy little madam but he just ignored her completely when she was in one of her "bossy moods" and left her to it! he loves his food, has put on over 5 kilos and his coat is lovely. he just loves his toys and flings them all over the place. hes very often found surrounded by them completely crashed out! he loves to sleep upside down with his teeth out and manouvers his way around the wall to get comfy! he hasn't attempted to get on the sofas at all although he is more than welcome too. hes alittle shy like that. give him time!bet he'll be on them before we know it! out and about hes generally very good and has plenty of doggy friends, hes still a little excitable around the smaller furry ones, hes fine until they scoot off and then he tries to chase after them, hes getting there though, hes very responsive to his training and will listen. he said a very nice hello to a westie yesterday. with time and training he will come on, we are sure. hes a good lad and he will be off on his hols very soon to skeggy! hes a dream in the car. so all in all hes a loving, funny, happy go lucky lad who really loves life and his home comforts, hes very loyal and a big fusspot! him and floydy are best buddies and he looks to floyd for guidance. floyd is an excellent role model, hes fab around all dogs and very calm and relaxed, barney definately looks up to his big brother!

Toby
I’m Homed
thanks so much for asking how my little man is, he's fine, always was, just his silly mum panicking, bless him, he's got such a pain threshold which just confirms how awful his life was before he came to Daybreaks. he is doing wonderfully well, weighs 35.5 kg now and absolutely loves every dog he meets, he played with a 12 weeks old cocker spaniel pup yesterday and you've never seen anything so sweet and gentle in your life. Toby seems very happy and contented and he is slowly losing his fear of people. it'll take a little while yet but he's getting there. he is most certainly a much loved boy and i simply an't imagine my life without him.

I hope Toby is feeling better now. You were obviously meant to be Toby's guardian angel and I can't think of a better person. To hear that he is off lead and enjoying himself is wonderful because I remember the petrified Toby. Now he is content and amongst friends. Thank you.

Rocket
Over the Rainbow Bridge
My mum fell in love with Rocket, but he is way too big for our house. If it was possible, she would have reserved him right away! Hope he's doing okay and nothing was wrong with him when we saw him. x

Ellie (Kelly)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Kelly is the most gorgeous little girl, but has a massive personality. If i was allowed another dog, she would be the one for me. When she left the kennels this morning, I cryed! But i know coming here is the best for the little lass, Hopefully she will find a great home really soon. Good Luck Kelly x

So pleased Wolfy has found the right home. He deserves it. Thank you for taking him into your family and giving him the love he deserves. He can now enjoy his retirement after a top class racing career, over 100 races and running with the best. Pam

Wolfy
Over the Rainbow Bridge
by ann and kya 18th April 09 Wolfy what a star he is now finding his feet he is very loving and has so much character and he is slowly being introduced to all my friends dogs outside then they come to the house no problems he just needs time and patience i am very careful in the garden and outside as he wants to chase cats and small furry dogs . He likes to have the covers over him at night or he wont settle lots of treats for good behaviour and a chilled approach is what he needs and lots of love he follows me in the kitchen for grub and has started to put on weight he likes to lie in the porch and watch the world go by and he still likes to wipe his mouth on me when he has eaten his grub and sits with me on the sofa and puts his head on my lap he loves to be stroked and will then fall to sleep his kennel coat has now gone this boy is not aggressive with other breeds he needs time he just wants to play and sniff what a star

He looks beautiful - pity Jack won't be with you in time to meet him - I'm sure he'll be grabbed well before the end of the month.

Penny Girl
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I love to check out the RGT websites and see what great work you are doing. We have a greyhound from the nottingham branch and he's the best ever. Such a sweetie. Would dearly love another one, saw Penny and had to have a look so checked out her family tree and guess what they both have the same dad!! How spooky is that? Hope she finds a new home soon, she looks like a lovely, lovely pooch!!! P.S, our Sid's racing name was Airmount Giggs.
