Maisie
I’m Homed
Maisie came to the park with me today. It is lovely to see that she is far more relaxed around people who visit her in her kennel than she used to be. Once leaded up, we headed to the car. She needed some help getting in but was happy to jump out. I had the feeling that she was a bit overwhelmed by all the different sights and sounds in the park as well as the volume of squirrels and other dogs. She will need someone with patience, who can introduce her bit by bit to her new life. I'm sure she'll be worth the effort though. Good luck little lady xx

2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
Kate, So sorry to leave you with such a full diary today! But, so very pleased to see Ben and Wendy reserved. So sorry to have missed Lorraine and her gang. I had a lovely and unexpected visit from Ruth and Andy this evening, it is great to see Ruth looking so well. Onwards and upwards for her, she is hoping to be able to come and do a little and often at the kennels by the end of September. I am hoping for more visitors tomorrow and hopefully more reservations. Please don't forget our 'Let the stars shine again' night on 21st September. This was such a lovely evening last year, tickets are on sale at the kennels, you can book over the phone if you can't come in. If you cannot make it but still would like to have one of our remembrance candles you can either pop in or again order one over the phone. Tickets for the evening are only £5.00, this includes a jacket potato and a remembrance candle, or just £2.50 for a remembrance candle if you cannot make it on the night. We look forward to seeing as many of you as can make it. Hounds are also very welcome. X

2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
It was a very busy day which saw lovely Wendy and handsome young man Ben reserved. :)) There were several other visitors to view the dogs with lots of positive interest. Sorry to see Cindy unreserved but hopefully it will be her turn very soon. Xx We had visitors to use the sand run, it was great to see some old friends including Lorraine with her gang. Can't believe Norah with an 'H' is now twelve...still a very pretty girl. :)) Thanks so much to Liz for taking Razzle for a trip to the park this afternoon. Sounds like he had a great time! Fingers crossed his forever home will soon be his. Thanks so much to everyone for your help today with feeding, cleaning and walking. So kind of you all. Xxx

I'm so sorry sweetheart but I'm sure you wont mind being patient a little while longer. As you know Wendy has been waiting very quietly for a while and I was worried she was being overlooked. Your turn will come. Its very early days for you. Xx

Razzle
I’m Homed
What a happy lad Razzle is. He came out with me to Brueton Park today. He jumped in the car with little encouragement and I actually forgot he was there when driving as he was so settled. He didn't even get up once parked. He was totally chilled out in the boot and no problem whatsoever. Once we got walking he was interested in everything. He had difficulty keeping a straight line as there was so many sights and smells he wanted to explore. Bless him! We met several other breeds on our walk, including a 6 year old Jack Russell and a 4 month old Staffie. Both were greeted politely and he was a model greyhound. We walked right through the town centre and received fuss from quite a few children. He isn't fazed by anything. Such a lovely lad. He will make a great companion for someone x

Wendy
I’m Homed
Well Wendy, well done. Sometimes things work in mysterious ways. I know when you had a viewing yesterday that the lovely lady was so very torn between you and the dog she chose. She found it very difficult to decide. She made me reassure her that we would find you your perfect home. Job done I think!

So sorry for Cindy, but as Kate quite rightly says the dogs choose each other. So happy for Wendy being chosen by Jinky. But Cindy being a little blue girl with very pretty eyes will not have to wait long for a home that is just right for her. X

Sadly Cindy is no longer reserved. The gentleman who had reserved her brought his Greyhound Jinky to meet her this morning. They were fine together but then she met Wendy and it was obvious they felt very comfortable with each other. Its always best if the dogs choose each other! 🙂 Cindy is a lovely girl so I am sure it wont be long before she finds herself reserved again. Xxx
