A little improvement in the weather today, thanks so much to everyone who walked the dogs today. At least they were able to get out for their two walks without getting too wet. Xx I took Zoey to the vets for her neutering operation this morning. What a lovely little girl she is. She met Harvey the Basset Hound and a Schnauzer in the waiting room and was a very polite young lady with them both. She was a little taken aback when Harvey barked! :)) Her prospective new family are hoping to come and visit her tomorrow. 🙂 Thanks so much to Rosie and Paul for taking Holly home and then to the vets for her neutering operation today too. Xxx Xxx

We have the lovely Holly with us for a couple of nights and took her to be speyed today. She isn’t wanting any food yet tonight which is the opposite of how she was last night - paws up on the work surfaces in the kitchen to see what there was to snaffle! And so inquisitive!! She had her nose in every corner of every room and even climbed over the double bowl stand in the corner of the utility to get INTO the recycling box under the sink :))) She is such a pretty girl and her tail didn’t stop wagging last night. Not so much tonight but I’m sure it’ll be on the go again tomorrow.

After so many races this delightful, friendly girl deserves a sofa of her own although she happily shares a kennel with Beano so maybe she could share a sofa too. Lots of cuddles xxx

Carly is doing brilliantly 🙂 She had a bit of a scary first night out of kennels on the day of Storm Ciara; but had a lovely second night and is very settled already. Had a few nice short gentle walks while recovering from her spay, eating well, and having lots of cuddles and fuss. Thanks everyone for looking after her so well at Daybreaks xx

Hey auntie Kate. I promise I’ll try to make friends with the fish but they are teeny teeny tiny. I know mom keeps trying to get a TC to agree to a friend for me, I’m such a good girl and I try to show him how good it could be. Mom is doing well, she’s healing well and the operation doesn’t hurt at all but she is in a lot of pain with her fibromyalgia as the funny boot they make her wear is putting lots of strain on her muscles. Lubs to you. Xxxx

Dear Florence, I am so sorry your Mom misled you and built your hopes up thinking a puppy friend had at last arrived! You could always try and make friends with the baby fish! :))) Never give up hope! Lots of love to you. Xxx I do hope your Mom is starting to feel better. Xxx

I got soooo excited today! I heard mom say to TC “look there’s a baby”. At last the puppy I’ve been looking for - yeah. “Where?” Asks TC. “In the fish tank, there’s 2”. Say what? What are they doing in the fish tank? “I’ll get the fry net” says mom. Oh good chips! Will I have to share with the puppies? Turns out they are fish, fish I tell you, what good is that to me? Lubs to all Florence xxx

So we took Trebles home for the day to see Amber. We had no idea whether she would even let him in the house, so it was a meeting that could have gone either way....(and she has rejected all of the other dogs she's met) Very pleased to say that it was extremely positive - she didn't growl at all, but was very happy to sniff and follow him about. She even let him sniff her, which is absolutely unheard of! We all got soaked this afternoon on a bonding walk (he doesn't mind the rain). He is a super boy (and he has ears like K9 in Doctor Who). We are very excited. Fingers crossed!

Trebled has been reserved, yay. This really brightened up what can only be described as a foul, awful, dreadful, wet, windy...Well ok you get the picture. Many thanks to all the brave souls who braved the elements to come in, I really appreciate it. It was so bad that all walks today were cancelled for everybody's safety. Instead all our residents enjoyed playing with toys in the outside runs, some took to it better than others. They all had extra cuddles in their kennels, not sure who enjoyed that more, the volunteers or the hounds! They each then paid a visit to the treatment room where they all had a lovely groom and more fuss. When we left they were all curled up and warm oblivious to the conditions outside. Thankfully the forecast for tomorrow is much better so hopefully they will get to have walks. Once again, thanks to everyone for their help today. X
