2019 Daybreaks Diary!
I’m Homed
Was lovely to be warmer today, and the promised rain wasn't as bad as expected so the doggies could enjoy a nice walk this afternoon. Morning sand run playtime was interrupted by a certain young lady and her new Mum!! Pretty little Genie and her new Mum had a lovey time playing in the run, Genie does enjoy playing with a ball bless her. Then her morning got even better as she trotted off to her new home - wishing her lots of happy times ahead. x Nerys was fine this morning following her spey yesterday. I was greeted with a waggy tail when I went into her kennel, but she is incredibly nervous and tries to squash herself as far into the corner as she can. She did eventually come out for her breakfast, which she polished off with no problem, but she is so very wary of people. As Kate has already said she will need plenty of patience and understanding but she is such a little sweetie who deserves that chance. It was a very quiet day so whilst the students got on with health checks and other tasks around the kennels, I had the opportunity to spend some time with my 2 favourite fellas - Jet & Treaty. It is still early days for Jet's new diet, but he has put on a little weight. I have adjusted his food a little and we will see what another week does. He was quite happy for me to sit next to him giving him a fuss - and lay sprawled out, pawing at me if I stopped stroking him!! I also spent some time with the lovely Treaty. After giving me hundreds of kisses, he lay down and was quite content for me to stroke him, pawing at me if I stopped. Both these boys are so affectionate and I really enjoyed being able to spend some quality time with them both. Well, another weekend is upon us - so that means I have wine and make a wish for forever homes for our boys & girls, especially those that have been waiting so patiently for such a long time. Fingers crossed it happens for them soon.x Have a great weekend all. Angie xx

Ruth and I took Nerys for her neutering operation this morning. She was such a scared little girl. She will need a very patient and understanding family to help her with the outside world. In her kennel she is is a happy little soul with a waggy tail. Hope she will feel better tomorrow. Xxx Thanks to Alan,Shirley and Declan for picking up our two latest arrivals, Debs and Velvet. They are both delightful. :)) We have finally moved into out newly refurbished kitchen! Thanks to the the boys, Dave, Declan and Lewis for cleaning out cupboards, drawers and washing cups, plates etc. :)) We now have somewhere for visitors and volunteers to make a drink or have lunch. :)) Richard spent most of the day painting doors and door frames! Didn't notice any "blue" dogs walking around the kennels this afternoon. Xxx We are so very grateful to everyone for everything they do to make the kennels a great place to be for our Greyhounds, volunteers and visitors. Xxx
