Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
You never know what a day will bring. Sadly a call this morning that Polly was becoming too strong on the lead and her owner felt she was too difficult to walk, cats seemed to be a big problem, and she felt the best thing for Polly was to come back to Daybreaks and find a home that could accommodate her needs.....Well this afternoon a lovely couple came in, and whilst initially they fell for Flash, they really liked Polly. They took her around the sand run and sensibly went away to chat about whether she was the right girl for them. A call after I got home said yes! They have reserved her. Sam had a visit this morning too. Another lovely couple with 2 older greys (sorry kids, their words not mine, 8 and 9 is not old)! Sam got on really well with them and so off he went, so sad to see him go, but also so glad. I called Rosie who had kindly fostered him to let her know he had gone home before I updated the website. Thanks to her and Paul he had turned a corner and is less nervous. Mixed emotions as they really feel in love with him (as did most people) but they couldn't go up to 4 and I wasn't going up to 6! It was very warm this afternoon, so with only 3 dogs in the kennels they had some fun in the sand run, apart from little Flash, who had a gentle stroll due to recovering from a broken hock. She is beautiful but still very nervous, I spent some time with her in her kennel, I think as she gets to know and trust you she will be a fantastic little companion. We will hopefully have 2 new arrivals tomorrow. Can't wait to meet them on Wednesday if they are still there!!! Take care all, tomorrow promises to be another hot day, keep those hounds cool. Jo x

Sad to hear Polly has been returned today but so happy to hear she has also been reserved today!! I'm sure with a little help her exuberance on the lead can be sorted. :)) Xxx

Looked an hour ago and you were still looking for a home. Now it says you're rehomed. That was quick work. Must be because of how lovely you look in the paddling pool and Rosie's glowing reference. Good luck in your forever home. x

That's such a shame, Polly, for you and your owner as I know how excited she was to take you home. Sounds like you'd benefit from someone stronger and/or someone able to do some lead training. You're such a sweet girl and it sounds like you've been great in the home so I'm sure your forever home is just around the corner. See you next Sunday if you're still there. x
