Great to hear how Lola is getting on, and that it's not made her afraid to be around our dogs, what a poppet xxxxx

I have Sams big half sister Lottie and she too was a little anxious to start with but now you would not guess this on the fund raiser days she now will happily go up to strangers and do the famous greyhound lean. In the right environment I am sure Sam will thrive and gain his confidence and some luck person will have a fabulous grey.

I last saw Lola a week ago and she looked stunning. All that's left of the wound is a small red patch the size of a 2p coin. Its hard to imagine how bad the injuries were. Lola is still a very bouncy happy girl, she thinks she's been fixed for some time and wants to have a run. Fortunately she is still very friendly and continues to improve towards other dogs even after suffering such a bad attack. I will be seeing her next week, I get searched by a pointy nose whenever I visit as she knows I come with a treat in my pocket. She is much loved by all especially her owner who thinks the world of her xx

Great news for Noddy! Xxx Klaire, it it's any consolation he isn't cat friendly, so he wouldn't have been able to have come and live with you and Florence....But never say never Xxx 🙂

Hello Daisydog!! Michael & I remember you well, both from the kennels and also meeting up with you at the garden centre when we were fostering Sparky back in 2013! Good to hear you are still managing to potter about and see your pals - and we hope you have a lovely 14th birthday on 1st August, I bet you will get some very cool presents fit for a mature and pretty Princess. xx

Daisydog here just ambling by to say that I will be 14 on August 1st. Yes, and I only look 8! Being fawn I don’t have a spec of grey! I am to have a zoom birthday party and a few chums in the garden and of course a cake made by aunty Tina. I am so blessed with my seaside life and manage a little walk to the common most days. I am very wonky now with a back leg that I think belongs to someone else but am very happy and much loved. Mum adds ‘ the girl amazes us all - she has such spirit and determination - she’s isn’t able to ride comfortably in her beloved car any more but enjoys her garden and seeing her chums. So for anyone who remembers us - she has been with me now for 8 years - we are sending a special seaside hello - each day now an even bigger treasure. Xxx

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
It was very quiet today, no visitors apart from two bookings for the sand run. As it started to get quite warm, the dogs had a walk down the lane in the shade this morning. This afternoon it was a stroll around the sand run in the shade and then toys and playtime in the paddling pool. Sam is still quite nervous, he wants to come and see you but is still hesitant. He does now wag his tail when he sees you whilst in his kennel. I sat with him for a while and gave him some pieces of ham... don't tell the other residents. He would only eat it if it was put on his bed, bless. We are expecting a couple of new hounds during the week, so keep your eyes open and see if any of them grab your attention! It is so very satisfying to see these deserving greys get their forever homes. Xx We did however have a new arrival, Noddy! He is lovely and very affectionate. Thanks to Lynne and Simon for bathing him and getting him settled.

Sam, sounds like a big adventure in the sand run for you yesterday - well done! The big scary world is getting a little bit better every day isn't it, and sounds like a furry friend would help you even more. You get my virtual cuddle today - and a real, gentle one on Friday if you are still with us. xxx
