Ritchie
I’m Homed
Ritchie had a great time today. He is still very stressed in his kennel so we let him out! He investigated every corner of the kennels....the office and all the treats were very exciting to him and when I opened the food storage cupboard he tried desperately to chew a hole in a bag of Burns! He stood very patiently while Yvonne and I gave him a groom. :)) He is a super affectionate lad loves life and has so much love to give. Do hope his forever home will soon be his! :)) Xxx

Thanks for asking shanishoo.... Cora is doing really well. She is being reviewed every two days so was seen Saturday and is being reviewed today for dressing changes but so far (touch wood) she is healing well - phew! She has got a gigantic cone of shame so she can't do any damage!

If you are a member of our Facebook group you will see the photos and videos.... On Saturday I did some socialisation training with Coffee and his new owners. I showed them techniques of how to introduce to other breeds - he was fantastic at responding. Yesterday after heading home from the kennels I bandaged a poorly leg on Stella the greyhound who had degloved a section of her front leg! It was then off to Willows to collect Keeley who has been in all weekend. She was extremely bright and had been very well looked after by Tom the vet. We are waiting for biopsy results to decide the next stage of treatment. Thank goodness for Petplan! Momma, Tiggy and Tony had been left quite a bit yesterday and I’m so pleased Tony didn’t stress... we kept a check on his movements on the camera and he liked looking out of the window bless him!

Richie is such a nice lad, he would love a home either with a doggy friend or where there is someone at home most of the time. He is very inquisitive and likes to watch what's going on and what everyone is doing. :)) Xxx

A bit warmer today, Ruth was busy with corn removals and nail clipping. That included my Arry with his corn, turns out he has an infection in his toe (in addition to his corn) and a fractured nail! Sarah Scare Bear had her nails cut, she will not let me anywhere near her, thanks Ruth for sorting both of them. The sand run was completely booked today and is increasingly being booked well in advance. Liz_Beth took Ritchie to the park, he had already just had a walk but was up for an outing, thanks to her for taking him, he was very quiet when he returned for dinner!!! He really needs a foster home or even better a forever home, if you can help please give the kennels a call. Hawk had a visit from his family, he will be going home at the end of the week. Little Sarah has gone to spend some time with her new brothers. She will have a fantastic home with them and her mom and dad. I have some exciting news, well for me it is, I am now fully mobile again with a new car, well not new, new but a replacement for my previous one, it's great!!! As always, please stay safe and well, hopefully the current restrictions may be eased soon and we can welcome more of our lovely volunteers back. We have been working with far fewer volunteers with our own little 'bubbles' since lockdown, so it will be fantastic when we can open the doors to them. We will of course be following the government guidelines as necessary.

Ritchie

Ritchie had a walk around Elmdon Park with me again today. He was notably more at ease than last time and rather than his ears being up and alert, they were floppy and relaxed for a lot of the walk. We walked for about an hour and saw quite a few dogs. We didn't stop to say hello to them though, but walked past briskly. Whilst Ritchie did want to take a closer look, he was easy to manage. When we got back he flopped on his bed in the run with his head hanging off the raised bed and his nose squished against the floor. He looked quite content with life. He is a lovely boy xx
