2019 Daybreaks Diary!

After a cloudy start today turned into a bit of a scorcher! We were very short on volunteers this morning so doggies couldn't go out for a walk, but as it had got quite warm by then I don't think they were too bothered. And after a very quiet start - the day went absolutely mad!! We had plenty of visitors to use the run, buy food, have nail clipping, make donations of bedding and - best of all - a viewing which resulted in the lovely Betty being reserved, yay! x I met the very handsome and friendly Ringo today, he is lovely and while I was doing my prior to going home checks this evening, I spotted him lying upside down with his legs in the air! Quite a few of our boys & girls were lying on the cool stone floors, and we left the fans on to keep them cool overnight. Ah, the vagaries of the British climate!! Well, I cant believe it's the weekend again, and as Kate said yesterday, it's August too - just where is the time going? It is a definite chilled white wine kind of evening, so I will raise my glass and toast our beautiful boys & girls - all so lovely and all waiting so patiently for their chance to show what a great addition to a family they would make. Don't forget tickets for Let The Stars Shine Again are on sale now. I know the event is in September, but I hate to remind you - that is next month!! It will be a lovely evening where we remember friends both 2 & 4 legged who are no longer with us but are always in our hearts. You can light a candle in their memory and tuck into a jacket potato whilst chatting and sharing stories and precious memories. Have a lovely weekend one and all - cheers! Angie xx

A strange day with hot sunshine one minute and torrential rain the next! Thanks to everyone who came in to walk the dogs. They all enjoyed two walks. Alan and Declan did a warehouse run for us while Richard did more repairs around the kennels. 🙂 We saw little Cara today as Shirley and Richard are looking after her while her family are away on holiday. She looks fantastic with a lovely shiny coat! Can't believe it's August already...where does the time go!? If you are looking for something special to do during the summer, why not give a Greyhound their forever home! :))) Xxx

Popped in today & met the lovely new arrival Ringo. What a soft kind & affectionate boy he is. Thank you Ringo for giving my ears a good washing....I must have not done a good job in the shower this morning. My little girl Bell was a bit jealous when she heard my voice so then insisted on nibbling me & giving my face and mouth an even bigger wash!!! I love all the residents but my little girl is very much a baby at 3 & desperately needs to be someone's Mummy or Daddy's girl. I wish I could have her but my current situation would not be right for her or my boys. Please people.....if you are considering a new dog, come and say hello to all our wonderful residents with their individual characters and quirks. They are waiting soooo patiently for just a chance to show their love and loyalty.
