Very smart logo!! Only four houndies to walk today. All were very well behaved. Drew walked beautifully, he is very happy to be with the other dogs. Blue was super, hes a lovely boy. Russ likes to be in the front and walks really well and Knight who is quite lively in the kennel is a delight to walk.. Virtual hugs to go with the real hugs xxxxx

Trebles, I will sell my children and we can stay at home together all day under a blanket, watching television and eating cheese.

We are heartbroken to have taken Trebles back to the kennels today. Unfortunately it just didn’t work out. We feel he would be more suited in a house with no stairs and people that don’t really go out often and have a lot of time to be able to help him with his separation anxiety. We are gutted as we loved him and he was a great lad. I’m sure the right home is out there for him. Hugs for you beautiful lad! Xx

I've absolutely loved reading this story and how you and Trebles seem to have rescued eachother! It all seemed to happen at the right time. Archie is such a good name for him.

We have started calling him Archie short for Archibald because of his bottom being bald because he never answers to trebles and we are not stuck on the name. We also don’t think he will be going anywhere else soon. Very please with him. A true champion in our eyes.

Well Trebles, from all I’m seeing and hearing you are making a good impression on your foster family. Keep it up and be a really good boy when you meet Florence soon and you might have landed sofa! Xxx

I expected it to be very quiet for volunteers today, how wrong I was, we had solo much help! We had five dogs at the start of the day and only four at the end. Gorgeous little Harley found a home with an older brother, they got on really well, good luck to her. As we had so much help a lot more sorting and tidying was undertaken. We had serveral visitors to use the sand run, buy food and have a look at the current residents (those who are still here)! Lovely Robbie came in for sand run fun and to stock up on food, toys, treats and a new house collar. It's always great to see ex-residents and hear how they are getting on. Lorna had pampers and mini pampers, she was very busy this morning. Thanks to everyone for their help today, very much appreciated.

Day 3: we went to Sheldon Country Park today and had a lovely walk. He is great on the lead and no pulling at all. We saw a few dogs and was good with them. Little dogs he is interested in but still doesn’t pull just staring. As we were leaving the park two little dogs came up to him which were off lead. They were very intimidating and wouldn’t leave him alone however Trebles stayed very calm during this but when it got too much he did a little bark to get away but nothing aggressive. We are proud of him for coping so well! When we got to the car he waited patiently while we wiped his feet. Very good boy! Can I just say he travels amazingly in the car and we don’t hear a sound off him just lies there until he realises we have got out of the car. Loves his food and was trying to pinch my chocolate buttons and foster mommy’s crisps. He races upstairs if you have food! Slept through night again great. We watched back the tape from when we left him for bit which wasn’t long. There is definitely signs of separation anxiety but we are not giving up and will definitely be working with him through this. It will just take time! He is a lovely boy! Xxx

2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
My mind runs riot when I am not at the kennels and I then take this to bed with my dreams and spent a night of stressing last night! Aggghhhh...... it has been such a big decision to go independent and a heck of a lot of work. Due to still waiting for another operation I am still unable to work full time at the kennels so although I am only at Daybreaks for a few hours here and there, I continue to work at home. The response I have had has been so positive and even with the news of returnees this has not put a damper on anything. I am just so grateful that due to the support we have we can continue to help find homes for the greyhounds we are lucky enough to help. A returnee is not a failure but just not quite the right home for different reasons. We are there not only to support the dogs but the people who come to us too. Thank you to everyone who helps Daybreaks continue. Ruth x
