Blue
I’m Homed
Blue is so funny. I was tasked with the job of cleaning his teeth. I chose him thinking he'd be easier as he doesn't have many teeth! Well, how wrong could I be. He thinks it's a game so he had me chasing him around his kennel trying to catch him. I did manage to brush them. When Kate came in to see him he started rolling around on the bed whilst chewing and licking the toothbrush but also inviting belly rubs! I really hope someone gives him his forever home soon. x

Daisy
I’m Homed
Daisy is adorable. She's so petite and overwhelmed by her arrival at kennels yesterday. She's clearly not sure what's happening but I'm sure she'll soon settle into the routine. She went out on the morning walk but froze so she was brought back to the kennels where she got a lot of fuss (and treats!) to build her trust and confidence up. Myself and another volunteer took her for a little walk around kennels and into the sand run. She was ok walking if treats were involved! She's clearly food orientated but that should help with training. She made us laugh as she refused SAUSAGES! She loved pilchard cake and would eat sausages if the smelt of it! She's paired up with little Pixie in kennels and they make such a cute pair. I'm back at kennels tomorrow so I'll be able to see how she's settled in after having had a full day and night there. She gets my cuddle today. x

What a lovely boy Ed is, he was a pleasure to walk today. After a little excitement when going into the kennel, he then stands nicely for you to lead him up. He walks nicely by your side at your pace and then when we returned to his kennel we had a cuddle and then he fell asleep!

Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
Angie normally does the Friday diary but she had matters of very great importance to see to. So this is what happened today. The dogs enjoyed their walks even if it was chilly. Angie took Paddy for a gentle stroll around the sand run before she left as his leg is a little sore. Kenny paid a visit to say goodbye as he is off to live in Chester with his mom, he made himself at home in the office. Then pretty little Charlotte came in with her dad bearing gifts of sardines for the dogs and goodies for the hoomans. Her and Kenny seemed to really quite like each other! We had a gorgeous new arrival, Daisy. She arrived very late in the day so unfortunately we couldn't bath her (sorry Kate), and as we were feeding when she arrived she came into the office to wait for her dinner and to be allocated a bed for the night. After moving Paddy to a single suite, and introducing her to her new room mate she and Pixie got a twin room! They decided which bed they each wanted and seemed very settled :)) Thanks to everyone who came in to visit, buy food and walk. Volunteer Dave went on one of his mad 'lets see what i can tidy' sprees, I don't think he could find much. I'm sure much more happened and if I remember I'll let you know!! In the immortal words of Angie, I will raise my glass for a good week ahead. X

Paddy
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I had the pleasure of taking Paddy for a very gentle, short stroll this morning. His poorly hock is giving him some gip in this cold, damp weather, so he is on restricted exercise at the moment. Am thinking he needs some doggy leg warmers to keep the joint cosy & warm! Will make this my next project. xx

Drew you have been with us for far too long!! Don't get me wrong, I love to see you and you are such a good boy, you are taking very good care of your pretty kennel mate Zoe, but you really do need a sofa to call your own now. To that end you are now my latest phone screensaver - fingers crossed! xxx

Well Miss Kylie, it must be something in the genes!! This shy and quiet little soul is definitely a cheeky monkey waiting to emerge!! When I popped her back in the kennel this morning after being let out for a wee - she jumped up onto the bed, plopped down onto her back with her legs in the air - and promptly rolled & squirmed for ages, wrapping blankets all round herself and making such a cute sound! Kennel mate Rose just looked on in amazement!! Bless you my sweet little girl. xx

A cuddle for Kylie tonight. :)) If after reading Jeff's comments about Celia today you think you would like a real character like her...why not come and meet her sister Kylie! They do seem very alike, she is quite shy and oh so tiny but I am sure there is a BIG, bright, cheeky girl inside waiting to escape! :))) Xxx
