Well done to everyone who organised Saturday evening. Lots of money raised to help our lovely Greyhounds! Xx It was a very damp day at the kennels. However the dogs did get two walks.:) Scruff went off to the vets with Sue this morning. She was having the first part of her vaccination. Sue said she was a really good girl. Poor little soul cried when she had her injection. 🙁 She has to go back for the second part in a few weeks time....hope she forgets her trip today! Many thanks to Sue for taking her for us. Xx Thanks so much to everyone who helped out today. It was a quiet day for visitors, Bella gave the kitchen a good clean and sorted all the food out. Dave unpacked the boxes of goodies I collected yesterday. 🙂 Thank you to Myra and Alan for bringing in a donation of bedding and coats from a lady who recently lost her Greyhound. Sending her lots of love. Xx Xxx .

Exciting news! Today I made a big decision which will change the future of Daybreaks. With much thought, after 13 years of being a branch of the Greyhound Trust National Charity, I have decided that from 1st January 2020, Daybreaks will become its own independent charity. By taking this step, it will allow me personally to make decisions directly affecting the kennels for the best care of the greyhounds in my trust. An official launch party will be announced in the next few months and hope you will join us to celebrate our independence. Thank you for your support so far, I really hope you will continue to support Daybreaks on our journey forward. Ruth xxx

Well done all for a fantastic amount raised you're all brilliant! Have you tell you about my boy last night, our baby girl decided sleep wasn't for her last night and while daddy carried on snoring all the way through as normal, mommy was incredibly tired and back and forth like a yoyo which as im sure some of you know is vile in the night and gets you down, but god bless jet must have realised as for the first time everytime i got up and sat in her room feeding her, i could see this little face appear round the door and in he'd come and lie by me as if to say its ok mom, we'll do it together! Really touched me just how loyal he is (as are all greys!) And how he always knows how to pick me up when i feel abit down! Mia loves him too and feed him a biscuit the other night, now normally he is abit quick taking food off us but he was so gentle with her and took it out of her hand like a dream...that's going to be a fabulous friendship as she grows up! Love him sooooo much xxxxx

Ooooo my Mags litter sister, Mags came to live with me last year after refusing to chase (she's making up for it now), I'm sure that Shelly will be as lovely and naughty as Mags, just watch your TV remote - Mags had 3 before I remembered to always hide them 🙂 xx

I am absolutely over the moon to be able to let you know that Saturday night's Countdown to Christmas raised the incredible sum of £1015.62 - THANK YOU!!!! Huge thanks go to the stallholders, everyone who helped out on the door, selling raffle tickets, sorting the food, my cast for a fab floorshow but most of all to you - our supporters & friends - for making it such a successful evening. We are so very grateful, and are looking forward to bringing you some more great events in the future. It may be a bit early, but Merry Christmas one and all! Angie xxx

I visited Rio and Ella's Mom and Dad today. They very kindly had boxes of goodies for me to collect. Rio and Ella looked fantastic and were very happy! Ella obviously thought I needed an extra wash as she made sure I was licked clean! :)) xx A huge thank you to Phil and Sylvia for all the fabulous donations of food, treats and all sorts of things for the Greyhounds and volunteers! You are both so very kind. Lots of love Kate Xxx ,

Great to hear Tommy is being a good boy and his new sisters love him so much. I wouldn't want to go to school either if I had to leave Tommy behind. :)) How lovely to hear you all met Chloe! She is a very pretty and sweet girl. Xxx

It was a lovely eve last night at the Fayre. I would just like to thank every single person who bought all of my crackers, cakes & gifts. I was so touched and truly appreciated the nice comments about my marzipan & icing. Although I have made Christmas cakes lots of times this was the first time I have attempted my own marzipan & icing so was a bit apprehensive & therefore appreciative of people's comments when eating the samples!! As no one genuinely seemed to think I should do anything different with the recipes for them I will make some again next year hopefully!!! I was grateful to have 2 muffins unsold as it meant I could actually try my own efforts today and I thought it was quite a nice recipe so would make those again....chocolate cranberry & orange....they might appear at Santa Paws on 8 Dec. I was delighted with the monies I raised for DB so hope it helps in some tiny way. A real pleasure to be a tiny cog in the ever large wheel that helps keep the kennels turning. Thank you again to all of our truly wonderful supporters!!! X
