Dexter
I’m Homed
Shani, Ken and Douggie, I am heartbroken to hear you have had to let Dexter go. :(( Xx He was such a character and I know how much you all adored him. He had a fabulous happy life with you and I loved hearing what he had been getting up to! Thinking of you all, lots of love to you and to Dougie who has lost his brother. God Bless your lovely lad. Kate, Skip, Fletcher and Lyra. Xxx

Dexter
I’m Homed
It is with a very heavy heart that I'm saying this, but yesterday we said goodbye to our beloved Dexter, at 12 1/2 we know he had a great life with us and up until 2 weeks ago was still the feisty, bouncy boy he had always been, a bit wobbly at times but mostly ok for a handsome boy of his age. His legs finally began letting him down to the point we had to make that awful decision to let him go to join his beloved brother Jack over the bridge. No matter that he never liked other dogs, not even Greyhounds sometimes, but he was a gentle soul who loved people and was oh so gentle with the grand children, he absolutely loved his food and walks and was a real snuggle monster that could lean for England. Thank you Daybreaks for letting us adopt this very special boy, he has brought us so much joy over the years, we are utterly devastated but at the same time know that we have made the right decision to let him go. We will miss you so much, you will be forever in our hearts, goodnight Doodles, sleep tight until we meet again. Love Mom, Pops ad Douggie xxxx

Prince
I’m Homed
It was great to see Prince and Bocko today. They get along so well together. Bocko can sometimes get very stressed and his owner says Prince has been so good for him. It's obvious how much much Prince loves his new brother. Several times he stood resting his head on Bockos back and when they went into the sand run Bocko was jumping up and down at the gate....Prince studied what he was doing and decided he would have a go too, his legs were not quite coordinated and he looked very funny! Wishing them both lots of happy times together. Xxx

A very busy day wchich saw three new arrivals. 🙂 First to arrive was Topper a very happy lad who knocked me over in his exuberant greeting! :)) Next was the tall and handsome Zac. He really loves to lean! Finally pretty girl, Molly arrived. A little timid but she seems a very sweet natured young lady. In between Prince popped in to complete his adoption paperwork! He and Bocko get on so well! :)) xx Thanks so much to Shirley, Richard and Declan for bathing them all and carrying out health checks. Xxx Xxx

Well, back to just chickens and the puddy cats this morning! :)) Laddie spent the night with Ruth and Andy but will be back at the kennels tomorrow. We are also expecting three more new arrivals. :))) Had the pleasure of spending some time with our good friend Sue and her four fab Greyhounds in the sand run this afternoon....you can't beat seeing a Greyhound running at top speed and having fun! Xxx Yvonne and I tried to sort out some of the items we have in our little shop...Yvonne is far more decisive than I am when it comes to getting rid of things! :)) We had several visitors to use the sand run and to buy food, Calendars etc. It was great to see some old friends and to hear they are all safe and well. 🙂 Xx Xxx
