Well....today....summed up was very cold and very quiet. A couple of sand run visitors, food collection, donation of blanket and doggy Santa chocolates and doggy christmas stocking. Thanks to Denise for coming in to feed the cats and chickens. Chris and greyhound Molly came in this afternoon. The calendars are proving very popular, so get your orders in asap! Please remember even though lockdown has been lifted that you still need to book an appointment to visit the kennels. The online auction finishes tonight at 10pm, winning bidders should be notified tomorrow, hope you all got what you wanted. As always...stay safe and well. X

Happy 3rd Gotcha day Nifty! We cannot believe it's been 3 years since we bought Nifty home. He's seen a lot of changes & just adapts to everything. He is so gentle & polite towards Cilla & Flo (unless treats are involved & then hes first in line). We cannot thank Kate enough for that first introduction to Nifty & Ruth for allowing us to take him home. Nifty loves coming back to Daybreaks as he is quite popular with everyone & he loves the fuss he gets. Xxx

Hi Jetlucy, I'm disappointed Santa can't come to the kennels too! My three will just have to send their Christmas lists in the post this year! I think the photoshoots are advertised on Facebook....But when there is another one we will pop it on the Daybreaks Diary page. Xxx

Penny is at Ruth and Andys tomight. Ruth is feeling a little better and Andy very kindly collected Penny this evening. 🙂 She had a nice day at the kennels and enjoyed the company of Skip and Lyra. Penny loves her food and will eat anything you give her! She had a great time in the sand run with Shirley and loved playing with toys. She joined in with all of our activities this afternoon 🙂 She "supervised" the cats while Shirley and I were sorting the dog coats. She then made sure the Rich Tea biscuits were up to scratch by sampling a few! She is a really special girl. :)) Thank you for the very kind offers of a foster home for Penny. 🙂 Excitingly she has someone coming to meet her on Thursday! Xxx

Penny has come back from foster today. She was going to stay with Ruth and Andy for a few days but sadly Ruth isn't too well and not able to take her. If there is anyone able to look after Penny for a while so she doesn't have to stay at the kennels on her own please call us on 0121 782 7702. Many thanks Xxx

Hearing from Eagle's Foster Mum to say she would like to adopt him certainly brightened a dreary day! :)) So happy for him and for his soon to be forever family. Xxx We had a visit from Father Christmas this morning! He says his name is Mick but I know he really is Santa! We were remembering how lovely it was last year seeing so many Greyhounds queuing up to meet him at the Christmas party. Sadly he won't be able to visit the kennels this year, but fingers crossed next year will be different! :)) Sharon confirmed today the phtotshoot at the kennels will still be able to take place this coming Sunday. Unfortunately it is fully booked but sure there will be more opportunities next year. 🙂 Many thanks to Gloria for her help this afternoon. Skip was happy to see her. 🙂 Xxx

I knew I had him , but now I know for sure I've caught that fish , today Daddy Jeff was letting me jump front feet on his shoulders and he was actually encouraging me to do it , Dad says he knows its normally unsociable but I cant jump at anyone else as they have to keep 2 meters away so I thought I would train Silly Celia to do the same as me and she's getting it too ,spin around once, proper fast though and then jump at Dad and put your feet on his shoulders and hug him so tight whilst wagging your tail and whoever hugs him closest is the winner which is always me because Celias not so sure about the game although she tries to copy me,she often ends up bashing Dad in the nose and then Dad gets miserable and sometimes a bit angry but as for the game Im the best at it, Damn it ..in the time it took me too write that hes just finished his crisps and salsa and I got none and Ive not met this new dog yet , Dad won't let me or Celia in the Kitchen , but actually I don't care because I'm going to win the hugging game and its so nice he has given me and Celia a bed with a quilt and pillows I just cant understand why he has to sleep in our bed every night you Humans are weird

A tree has appeared in the house! Tree in a house? They are supposed to be outside! Silly hoomans. They have told me not to pinch anything off the tree. Very strange who puts things on a tree? I have helped dad with the dinner recently. Not sure how appreciative he was though. I got in the way, stole to empty packets, jumped up the surfaces, tried to steal daddy’s dinner and best of all hit daddy with the washing up bowl every time I stole it. I think I was very helpful. Lubs Russ Xx Note from hooman: we have decided to declare the spare washing up bowl Russ’ Christmas present! One of them anyway. He is very spoiled.
