So happy for Phantom! He is such a super lad. Will miss my cuddle tomorrow but looks like lots of cuddles will be coming his way. :)) Xxx

Wow....another busy day today. Lots of sand run bookings, viewings, Ruth's corn and crusty pad clinic, all of course socially distanced with plenty of time between bookings. Phantom had a viewing and found himself a home, as did Sabby, now Don (after the Godfather or Dogfather)! Wishing them a their respective families many happy times ahead. Scotty was reserved, I am so happy for him, he will have another grey for company. Thanks to everyone who came in and helped, and wishing Lynne a very happy birthday for today, what better way to celebrate than coming to the kennels (and bringing cake)!!! We are hopefully, fingers crossed, having more new arrivals this week so watch this space. Hoping you are all staying safe and well. Xx

Oh my goodness - the kennels are almost empty again!!! So lovely to see all the red & green signs - I am really missing being "hands on" at the kennels & being around all the beautiful doggies. Fingers crossed it wont be for too much longer. In the meantime, stay safe one and all. xxx

Despite only having a few dogs at the kennels it was a busy day. 🙂 Dave, now called Spirit happily went off to his new home this morning. Xxx Jess had a family of three for pampers. Xxx The sand run was very busy. :)) Lyra didn't get to have a quick race around until 4.50pm...it's a good job she has lots of white spots, it was getting dark very quickly! :)) Thanks so much to Patric, Lynne, Simon and Jess for all their help today. Xxx

Over the Rainbow Bridge
Great to see Spirit go home today. :)) He jumped into the car with no problem, eager to start a new chapter in his life. Xxx His new owners are fab...so excited to be welcoming a new member into their family 🙂 Xxx I'm sure they were pleased to get home . It was very chilly having to be outside to fill out his paperwork but the safest way to do things due to the current circumstances. Spirit was fine he was sitting in his cosy under bed heated kennel waiting for us. :)) Lots of happiness to you all. Xxx

Phantom hadn't been cat tested so we decided to try him today. He showed very little interest from outside the cat room so we took him in. Patric had Socks securely on his lap and Tykes was hidden away. Still no lunging or particular interest. The same went for when Socks was put on the ground. He needs to be tested again but the signs are promising. He's a lovely boy who is just waiting for his well deserved forever home. Good luck sweetheart. x

I've just been out to see Sammy and drop off some more treats and his metacam (pain relief following his operation yesterday). I think he though he was coming home with me and sadly started barking as I left.... it was heartbreaking but he has just got to get used to a new environment.... I am only across the road so I'm on hand to help if need be!

I think Phantom will be the next one to accompany me home if Sammy stays in his home. I really love him and after spending time with him yesterday during a viewing, I'd love to give him some extra TLC!

I had the pleasure of introducing Spirit (Dave) to his new family yesterday. They were so excited and had already prepared nearly everything for his arrival. Me thinks he will be a very happy and very spoilt boy. Wishing you and your family many happy times ahead. Jo x
