Alex joined me to Elmdon Park this afternoon! Alex decided jumping into car wasn't happening so instead I lifted him in, he also wasn't too sure about getting out either - bless him! Once we arrived at the park he was rather strong on the lead, this was most likely because it was all new and exciting too him as he is quite a good boy on the lead at Daybreaks. We passed three very calm large non greyhounds, in which he showed an interest in but no aggression. However once we saw a few smaller dogs both on and off lead it was clear that Alex would need some help in socialisation. He becomes very strong and there is quite a bit of vocalisation. I'm sure after a few trips he will start to understand that other dogs are all okay. He is such a sweet, happy boy xxx

Daybreaks Diary!

Kate was right, it felt like winter had returned today, it was so cold! As always thanks to our Wednesday walkers and to Denise, Dave and Chris. I somehow managed to lock Denise in the chicken house, a completely innocent accident, honest. She wouldn't let it go (wish I left her in there, lol). Nice to see Jill who delivered lots of items for us. I got to meet lovely new girl Adele, she is so very sweet. Big lad Locky had managed to decorat his kennel overnight, he has had a case of 'happy tail' and managed to get his dressing off. Don't let that put you off, it is because he is such a happy boy he cannot stop wagging his tail. In a larger area he would be just fine (speaking from previous experience). Ruth had nail cuttings and teeth scrapings. Visitors for the sand run and highlight of the day Yoda went home, good luck mate xxx Got home, started doing dinner when I received a call from our fire alarm company, there was an alert from the kennels, thankfully not an alert involving a fire. I headed straight back out to find there had been a power cut affecting the area resulting in a fault notification. The inmates were all still tucked up warm and happy and seemed to be oblivious to my late visit!!! Technology is wonderful, its so good to know that we have a system that let's us know of any problem, the safety of our dogs is paramount. As always, stay safe and well everyone and we hope to be able to see you soon.

Sadly Lee is being returned from foster due to a change in circumstances and we are desperate to find him a home to go to rather than coming back into kennels. If you are interested, please give us a call on 0121 782 7702. Thank you so much.

Beautiful Adele arrived at the kennels this morning, she is a really lovely girl. :)) Thanks to Lucy for taking the great photos of her. Xx It was a little warmer today and the dogs enjoyed their walks this morning. We met a genetlman from the Building site up the lane and he was very taken by our handsome Locky :)) Sadly he already has two dogs. Locky absolutely loved all the extra attention and would have been very happy to go home with him! :)) Many thanks to Lucy and Yvonne for all their help today and to Jan for popping in to do some walks this afternoon. Xxx

Locky

Lucy is right about Locky he does love people! He is so sweet and just a happy puppy who is no trouble in his kennel. He is a very big boy who weighs nearly 40Kg! He is strong and would need to go to a home with someone who is confident with handling a lad of his size when out and about. You would also need a big sofa! :))) Xxx

Adele arrived at the kennels this morning. What an absolutely gorgeous little girl. Lucy and I took her out into Bob's garden to take her photo, she was more interested in giving cuddles. :)) Such a pretty girl. Xxx
