Hi Kate, nice to hear from you too! 🙂 I have found daddy's bin again! I found it after barking at him to take me out! He was sleeping so I made sure I woke him by taking the bin. He knew it was me as all the rubbish fell out and I left a trail... whoops Russ Xx

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
And then there were 5!!! We started off with 7 lovely boys & girls this morning but by the end of the day Delux had bagged himself a new home and the lovely Molly had gone off to her forever sofa. Wishing everyone many happy times ahead. x Our boys & girls had 2 walks today in some lovely sunshine. I enjoyed taking Harry, Polly and Zeb - after initially pulling to get going both Harry & Polly settled into the walk and happily trotted along, Polly doing an occasional little skip and a jump! It can take some of these boys and girls a while to realise that they can walk for pleasure. Zeb as usual walked like a dream. Many thanks to Elizabeth for taking Big Mike on another trip to the Park today. He is a real charmer, and these trips will help him to learn all about the outside world and its inhabitants. The nice weather meant I could get 2 lines of washing dried and put away, and as there were so few doggies they were treated to grooming and cuddle sessions!! As another weekend approaches I shall raise a glass of nicely chilled white wine to the few remaining residents and wish for their forever sofas - and hope that the newcomers on the list to join the Daybreaks family soon will also enjoy a short stay. Stay safe one & all - cheers! Angie xxx

Mike came with me to Elmdon Park again today. He is such a sweet boy and he always greets you with such enthusiasm. He walks really well and is a great companion. He really loves walking through the long grass and enjoys a good sniff. I think he is enjoying exploring everything that a post racing life has to offer. I really hope that he gets his own family very soon xx

Mike
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Mike had an adventure today as I had the privilege to take him to Sutton Park for an nice long walk. He travelled really well both going and coming back. In fact on the return journey I had to stop to check if he was ok as I did not see or hear him. Turned out he was lying on his side relaxing, good my panic over 🙂 As it was Mike's first time out and about in the big world it was initially a little stressful with all these new impressions to take in. I was impressed with how quick he is taking things on board. He was initially pulling but I corrected this a couple of times and he soon realised what I needed from him. We even had the lead in a relaxed smile shape, well done Mike. Mike was not fused about children or ducks. He very much enjoyed the smell of vegetation. Other dog breeds he finds interesting but is also a bit unsure, specially small dogs they are unusual to him. With some more socialisation I am sure he be great. It needs time and some patience as is with all dogs. Mike I am really proud of your achievement today. You have a really nice manner about you, very attentive and alert and quick on the uptake. Whilst I would love to walk you more, I prefer it that you to find your forever home soon.

Miserable weather today, but the day was brightened up with the lovely Tango being reserved :)) We had a gorgeous new arrival by the name of Deluxe!! He is a very happy friendly lad. Big thanks for everyone's help today. One of our resident cats Socks had another trip to the vet today, her water infection has not completely gone, so more medication. The vet said she was very good and enjoyed her treats. Hopefully this will sort the problem. Thanks for the donations of bedding and towels, and to Simon who came in to do some painting and other jobs, my Arry closely supervised the painting of the door in the top kennel run, such a good boy, don't know why he gets called Asbo (Arry not Simon)! Take care all, stay safe. X
