Thanks Liz_Beth for taking Kristoff to the park today. It's great to see that he was good with other breeds, I know he was good with Sara's border collie but lovely to know he was good outside the kennel environment. X

Lovely update on Tig, it must be very strange for them to be in a home for the first time with all the new sounds and smells, I'm sure it won't be long until he gets his paws firmly under the table and it will be like he's always been with you xxx

Kristoff came with me to Elmdon Park today. He is such a lovely boy. He travelled really well, settling immediately. Once at the park he wasn't fazed by other breeds. He walked happily despite the mud and rain. He's a real sweetie and I'm sure he'll make a great pet xx

Just an Update on Tiger, he was little disorientated yesterday afternoon when we got him home but he soon settled and was very playful and just wanted cuddles! He Had a fairly settled night except howling to wake us this morning to make sure he wasn’t on his own ????! He’s a great addition to our family!

Walked Kristoff today. He's lovely and walked very well on a loose lead. All of the dogs made us laugh today as there was a man mowing the rugby pitch with a push mower and you could see the dogs trying to work out what type of dog he was walking! He'll make a super companion. Hope he finds his forever home soon. x

Took Meena out for a walk. She was a little jumpy at first, especially when lorries drove past. Walked beautifully the whole time, getting on with her new kennel mate too.

Took this lad for a walk today. He walks at the end of his lead, but doesn't pull hard. Seems to be getting on with his new kennel mate.

Evie

Such a character! Took her for a walk today. Tail was high and wagging the whole way. Very, very inquisitive. Had a good sniff of everything. Love her little "bound" when we walked fast.

2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
It was chilly, grey & gloomy today - but it was a lovely day despite that working with our beautiful boys and girls. Jo was off early on the Vet run, taking sweet little Tatty to be speyed. She is such a gorgeous little girl and I'm so happy she has been reserved. She was quite bright on her return this afternoon and enjoyed her bowl of dinner before re-joining kennel mate Scruff to settle down for the night. x I met our 3 latest new arrivals - a lovely trio indeed. Roxy is such a pretty little thing - and has spent most of the day taking her coat off!! We pop into the kennel to put it back on her, but next time you look it's off again! Think she enjoys this game of "how many times can I get someone to come into my kennel and give me a fuss!" Quiet day for visitors, but this afternoon saw the handsome Tiger happily trot off to his new home. Wishing him and his new family lots of good times together. Many thanks for everyone's help today, doggies had 2 walks and some sand run playtime too. Another weekend is upon us - I seriously cant believe how fast the time is flying by. We have some viewings booked so fingers crossed that we see another red sign. Tickets for "Countdown to Christmas" are still available - come and join us for a great start to the festive season. A nice glass of red wine later methinks - to toast our kennel full of beauties and wish them all forever homes soon. Whatever you're doing this weekend, enjoy and keep warm. Cheers! Angie xx

Met Sparky yesterday for the first time. What a lovely lad he is too,calm friendly and his combination of black and white is beautiful. I could see the resemblance to Roy and Saddle. I have a feeling he won't wait too long for a home as he's a happy boy. His kennel mate Meena is lovely too,they make a greyt pair xx

Evie

I agree with rubytwoshoes, Evie is a funny little girl! She was great company at the vets today. We had to wait a while to see the vet, Evie spent most of the time trying to sit on my knee or looking out of the window to see what was going on. 🙂 She is a lively happy little soul who just wants to be loved and cuddled. She would bring lots of fun to someone's home! Hoping her forever home is just around the corner. Xxx

A busy day...gorgeous little Tatty was reserved this morning. :)) She will have a Greyhound brother and two Greyhound sisters! Xx Evie had the second part of her vaccination. She really is a happy girl! She travelled very well in the car to the vets only needing a little help to get in. All she needs now is her forever home. :)) We had several people come to meet the dogs. Thanks to Helen for introducing them to our current residents. Xx Richard and Declan had an exciting trip to the tip! It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it!! :)) Thanks so much chaps! Xxx We had another very pretty new arrival, Roxy is a lovely girl. She has had a long racing career, so now it's time for her to put her paws up on her own special sofa, eating biscuits! Her Trainer says she is partial to shapes biscuits. Xx Thanks so much to everyone for their help today and to everyone who brought in donations of food. Xx Alan and Paddy came in armed with donuts! :)) Thank you. Xx Sara's Dad brought Louis in for a visit. Kristoff was introduced to Louis, he was brilliant with him. :)) Xxx

Macca has also been losing weight and has protein in his urine. Our vets suspected kidney problems, but they checked his blood pressed and found it was quite high. Hes now on medication for it, and has put on 1kg in a week (hes also been eating loads of pasta, that may have something to do with it!). His urine will be checked again in a couple of weeks. I hope everything turns out well for your little girl
