Ben went off to the vets first thing this morning for his neutering operation. He spent the first five minutes looking out of the back window of the car, then settled down and went to sleep 🙂 He was a little wobbly when I picked him up this afternoon. I had chance to go for a couple of walks today. It was lovely walking weather and the dogs enjoyed getting away from the kennels. Thanks so much for everyone's help today. Xxx

Happy Birthday to Bobby! He is twelve today. :)) He spent the day at the kennels and was very spoilt..he had a card from his mates and a lovely pilchard cake made by Lucy which her shared with Skip, Ellie, Cello, Millie and manic Murphy! :)) There was enough left for him to bring home for Fletch and Lyra. After lunch he had a stroll up the lane. He also managed to find a bag of doggy donuts in my bag when I left him in the office before going home. He ate all of them! He is now crashed oit on his bed. :)) Sending him all my love and more, he is a very special gentleman. Xxxx

Bless you Florence. So pleased you just had stitches. Flloydy says thank you, we don't know how he lost part of his tail, probably due to happy tail. My Naughty Norman also suffered from happy tail, he unfortunately had 8 inches of his tail removed. The vet said that he had a kink in his tail which was what he thought was a fracture, he had that when I got him! Hope you will be a good girl and not mess with it. Take care, Auntie Jo and the furry five. Xx

Thank you for thinking of me. Back home feeling very sorry for myself. Only had stitches, mom is so relieved, pray that no breakdown or infection sets in please. Ffloydd, you’re perfect as you are, think mom is more worried I might need some tail amputated than me. Lubs to all. Florence xxx

Sending hugs to you Klaire, TC and of course Florence. Hope all is ok and no amputation is needed. Flloydy says there is nothing wrong with having a shorter tail. Love to you all, Jo and the five furry monsters. X

Please pray for Florence this afternoon. She cut her tail on Sunday evening and we had managed to control bleeding and keep it bandaged. At 1pm today she started bleeding through the bandage - she couldn’t resist wagging that tail- she is in surgery at the moment. They hope to stitch it but she might need the end amputated. Xxx

It was a quiet day for volunteers and visitors today. I guess most people are back to work and school this week. I hope all the Greyhounds who have been homed during the summer holidays soon settle into their new rountines. Xx We had extra help this afternoon so all the doggies had a walk in the late summer sunshine. I had the pleasure of walking Tommy. He walks beautifully on the lead and is very interested in everything around him. :)) Maisie made us laugh at feeding time. She had finished her dinner and decided she would like to share some of Cleo's who was next door to her. She put her paw through the bars and was trying so hard to grab Cleo's food bowl...Cleo wasn't too impressed! 🙂 Thanks so much to everyone for your help today. :)) Xxx

I'd like to share this from Canberra connection A Doberman, a Poodle and a Greyhound died and are standing in front of God at the entrance to heaven. God askes them, all three what they believe in The Doberman says 'I believe in discipline, training and loyalty to my owner.' 'Good 'says God 'you may sit on my right side'. 'Poodle what do you believe?' asks God. The Poodle replies, 'I believe in love and care from my owner as well as peace in the world' 'Ah says God 'You may sit on my left side' Then He looked at the Greyhound 'And what do you believe?' The Greyhound stood there, looked at Him and answered 'I believe you're sitting in my seat'
