Really looking forward to taking Artie home next weekend. She is such a sweet soul and I’m sure her and Marty will get on just great. She will be moving to a farm so we hope we can give her a super retirement with plenty to explore.

2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
We had lots of lovely volunteers today, so the residents had morning and afternoon walks. We had several viewings too. All prospective homers went away to make some difficult decisions as to who the lucky hound/s may be. It was very cold again, I felt it more so as I forgot to change from my trainers to thermal socks and my boots before setting off to the kennels this morning. I blame being tired after last night's Countdown to Christmas event. It was very late when I got home, not because of clearing up but more to do with chatting (and drinking) with the bar staff and manager of the rugby club! This brings me on to..... Many thanks to everyone who gave up their time to come and help. I won't mention individuals as I don't want to miss anyone out, however, I would like to thank Louise who got stuck in with cooking the food for the hot element of the buffet with me. Thanks too to the stall holder's. Angie as ever put on a fab mini show, not that I got to see it (I did see the run through though). Most of all, thank you all for coming and supporting Daybreaks and for the kind comments regarding the night in general. It was a hit of a different theme but it seemed to go down well. As Angie posted earlier, when she has a total of takings we will let you know. The staff at the ruby club were great, hopefully we can work closely with them in the future and put on some more events. Once again, thank you all so very much for supporting us, it was a greyt turnout . Jo x

Pleased to hear Tommy has settled in. I gave him a cuddle on Friday with instructions to behave! As if he wouldn't! He was so chilled. He knew he was going home. x

Sally is really settled now . She has started playing slot more and running round the garden . Sally and Bobby are always together. At night they sleep together on the sofa . Sally also likes to take items from around the house to put in her bed . The draft excluder seems to be her choice at the moment . Sally loves her walks and is such a joy to have in our house . Sally is our beautiful princess .xxxxx

Penny (Roxy)
I’m Homed
Roxy was reserved twice today!! Her new family visited her last week and were coming back to see her again at lunchtime today. First thing this morning a member of the family called on behalf of the lady to reserve her as a surprise for her husband. Xx Then a little later the gentleman called in to reserve Roxy for his wife! Both were worried if they didn't reserve her she would be reserved by someone else before they came back to see her! It was confusing... but so lovely, she was obviously the right girl for them. :))) Xxx

I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along tonight to support Countdown to Christmas. We had a great evening, and the Daybreaks Got Talent cast were fabulous in the floorshow. As soon as we have totalled everything up I will let you know how much we raised for our boys & girls. Thank you again - we are truly grateful for your support. Angie xx

So pleased to see this boy is reserved- we had just about decided that if he was still in on Monday we would offer to foster him until he find a new home. Xxx

Drew
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Drew had a great trip out this afternoon to the Mell Square roadshow. He did really well, coping with all the people, the attention and the occasional passing dog and pigeon. So many people complemented him on his looks, his condition and his size! He was especially good with children. He’s earnt his tea today! Hopefully his efforts will be rewarded soon.
