What a delightful young lady Mari is...she arrived this afternoon. She was happy to give out kisses and soon discovered where the treat jar is kept in the treatment room! Her trainers says she is a lovely girl, who loves to play. Xxx

Absolutely gorgeous. Don't be frightened. Ruth, the staff and volunteers will look after you. My Sam had only just turned 2 when I adopted him. My Sam didn't race. I see you've done 5 so you had a go but maybe decided it wasn't for you and that you just want to find your forever sofa. Good luck. I don't think it'll be long. x

Sadly Mr Rocky Rockstar has been unreserved this morning. His potential new sister took a dislike to him and it was felt best to not take the risk in them living together. His new home is out there somewhere...... he is always clean in his kennel and despite being a very big boy at 40kg, he is a cuddle monster!

Wow! 3333 hounds rehomed is phenomenal. Well done to Ruth and everyone who's played a part in the rehomings. Long may it continue. I love volunteering at kennels and helping to look after the dogs but one of my favourite parts is viewings. I love meeting prospective adopters and showing them the dogs who ultimately adopt them as we all know it's the dogs who choose. There's something the dogs do to make the humans fall in love with them. Skip, my first greyhound from Daybreaks and the start of my becoming part of the Daybreaks family, decided he would just get into our campervan after his introduction to our other greyhound Bert in the sand run. He wouldn't get out so that was it. He became ours. He was 4 then and is 9 now. Since then we became failed foster parents with Sam and then adopted Nadie in lockdown. "No we're not having a third" were famous last words after seeing this pretty little girl. So I don't doubt that 3333 will very soon start climbing higher. Keep up the good work Ruth and everyone. x

Wow! We had lovely clean kennels yesterday morning so I had refreshed them all by 9.45 and then mayhem started! It was such a busy day and I saw Babe go off to her new home. I opened the doors of Daybreaks on 1st July 2006 and yesterday marked our 3333rd home found for these beautiful greys. Running Daybreaks is immensely hard work and emotional but the joy of seeing these beautiful dogs go to loving homes is worth it. Just before we closed up I had big snuggles with Robbie one of our long stayers - total therapy! Thank you to all our volunteers who make this all possible too x

Thank you so much to Laura for taking such good care of our precious Sparky today - she was lovely with him! He's had a lot of pampering and is now very soft and clean. Thank you!
