Morgan
I’m Homed
Very sadly Morgan has come back to the kennels today. The genetlman who took him home says he is a lovely dog and has done nothing wrong. He is so sorry to have let Morgan down and hopes he will soon find his perfect home. Unfortunately things don't always work out how we would like them to. Xxx BUT...Morgan has someone coming to see him tomorrow morning! :)) Xxx

Sadly Gorgeous George is no longer reserved. He is an absolutely fabulous boy so hopefully he won't have to wait too long for his special home. Xxx

Russ
Over the Rainbow Bridge
We have had Russ over 6 months now and his confidence is fantastic you could say too confident. He wants fuss all the time and once he has had his late night walk you can’t shift him till lunch time the next day. He can’t be bothered to even get up for breakfast because he knows it will be still there when he gets up. He never forgets anything and chasing cats and squirrels are a hobby of his and he know where they all live in the area and looks for them when he goes out. He is a born leader and he tells us so everyday. He is always telling us what to do and wouldn’t have it any other way.

Wow what a busy day... I did Morgan’s home visit by WhatsApp and then spent the day at the Swan office which looked like a bomb had gone off as we were clearing with the help of Dave, Simon, Ian and Tina - clearing and being totally ruthless!!!!! Angie and Michael started clearing our ‘show costumes and props.... such a lot has been accrued over the years. At the kennels I went in with little Belle who unfortunately had ‘trashed’ her kennel overnight (scream) but is getting so much braver already and when Kate spent time with her in the run, she kept going back for fuss... so pleasing to see x I’m doing George’s home check via WhatsApp this morning - he is such a gorgeous boy and we are looking forward to our new arrivals hopefully soon.

We have an extremely busy day ahead of us as we starting to clear the office we have been using at the Sawn for the last five years! I carried out a WhatsApp home visit for Belle yesterday... she has a wonderful new family and home waiting for her. We have new arrivals in this week and Blue is off to the vets for his post op check following his dental. Looking forward to another busy day x

Lyn, found recipe for muffins.....plain flour, baking powder, bicarb soda, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, plain choc chips, butter, castor sugar, soft brown sugar, sour cream, milk, eggs, instant coffee If they are xmas ones they had cranberries & orange zest. If they are March ones they had hotel chocolat caramel flakes so I am worried about those as I have just looked at their warnings on packet......it says For allergens, including cereals containing gluten, see ingredients in BOLD. May contain traces of tree nuts, peanuts, gluten wheat, egg, sesame. Why there would be traces in chocolate flakes I dont know. Please be careful. I know the Betty Crocker carrot cake didnt have nuts in & I am sure I only added extra carrots. You would see if I had added nuts as they would be good size pieces. I was very short on time so dont think I even added raisins.

Message for Lyn Have you frozen them from xmas???? I did make some back in March but I thought Jo had taken them home to freeze & when when lockdown happened I told her to keep them & eat with her family!! If they were the March ones there are no nuts in them...I remember you are allergic....this time the carrot cake was a betty crocker mix as I was very short on time but the muffins were mine. I wld have to dig out the recipe but the usual flour, butter, sour cream, eggs, choc chips etc but no nuts. Hope to see you & Simon soon. I dont know when I will return as have taken on extra work since lockdown & Mel is now starting his journey towards leaving me so it is a question of each day is an unknown & I am trying not to spend very much time away from home so I can be with him as much as possible. Am still praying to get to his 13th birthday end August but for him that is a long way away at the moment. Enjoy the yum yums. I have just made a lovely fruit cake which is done in 1 pot on hob then popped into oven. Will have to make again soon & bring to kennels for everyone but will leave nuts out so you can try it. Take care hun Xxx
