Hello Friends. It’s my first gotcha day after being adopted from daybreaks kennels , who took care of me after I retired from racing. I’m really happy with my new family and and I think they are really happy with me. This is my furever home; I’ve got space, choice of 2 sofas, 4 coats, 2 leads and the garden to walk around in. Occasionally I run for fun in the garden, but I’m too fast so am careful. I have 2 bowls, water and food and get breakfast and tea. Fish is my favourite. Fit and healthy and happy. Being a greyhound is great! So what have my adopted family got? They got me! A companion, happy to walk anywhere, happy to travel anyway (but not share the driving), happy to just be there, but never in the way. Someone who’s happy to wake up early in the morning. They got someone who brings smiles to people they meet. They got a bigger family. Today I thought back to kennel life and so had a walk with some of the hounds currently staying there, telling them to look forward to their furever homes and their first gotcha day

What a difference in the weather today from last Saturday! It was back to winter, cold and wet. :(( We put the cool coats away and got the fleeces back out again! We had two new arrivals, Susie and Bolt. Both lovely happy dogs. Thanks to Jayne and Lucy for giving them both a bath and checking them into the kennels. Xx Pretty little Cara was reserved by a lovely family this morning. 🙂 Her tail is healing well. We are so grateful to Shirley and Richard for fostering her after her operation. She will stay with them until her new family are ready to take her home. Xx Hector came in for the day. He really is a fabulous lad. He spent some time in the office and also met Lucy's Ellie and sat with her in the kitchen. He was absolutely no trouble at all and was very calm when meeting visitors to the kennels two and four legged. Jayne did change his name to "Horace" on several occasions!! If you would like to meet Hector or Horace :)) he will be spending the day at the kennels again tomorrow. His foster Mom and Dad are happy to speak to anyone who might be interested in offering this handsome boy a forever home. Xx Thank you so much to everyone who came left a message in the Memory Book for Sara and gave a donation. Her Dad came in this morning and brought Louis for a play in the run. 🙂 If anyone would like to join Sara's family for a drink after her funeral next Tuesday, you are invited to the The St Bernard's Grange Pub, Barrows Lane, Sheldon, B26 1QJ. Xx Xxx

with heavy hearts and many tears we have lost our Beautiful Breeze - she entered our family like a hurricane and left us with a sigh. She became very poorly very quickly and we made the best decision for her and the hardest for us and on Wednesday curled up in my lap she slipped over the bridge. Sleep tight little lady. Xxxx
