Rocky (Pan)
I’m Homed
As Kate has previously said Pan is a very friendly lad. Today was his first visit to Elmdon Park. He did have to be lifted into the car but settled down well. On arrival in the park he did get very excited and vocal at seeing other dogs running free off the lead. He did then become very strong on the lead.. As the walk progressed and he became used to the surroundings he became more settled. He met other breeds with curiosity but no aggression. Although an affectionate friendly boy he can become quite strong on the lead if seeing other dogs running free.. Prospective adoptors should be aware of that..Hopefully that permanent home will not be too long arriving and what sometimes happens to black male dogs getting overlooked won't happen to him.

A great day for Bessie, she met a lovely couple this afternoon. They were just, 'coming to have a look' and ended up falling head over heels for her! She will have a lovely home. Xxx We had lots of donations of bedding today. Thank you so much to everyone who thought of us. One lady drove passed us twice before arriving....we are very grateful she persevered and found us! 🙂 Xxx The rain stayed away for most of the day, all the dogs had two nice walks....in between breakfast, lunch and dinner. :)) A big thank you to everyone who came in to help today, especially Jayne who did a lot of extra cleaning and sorted out all of the donated bedding. Xxx I can't believe it is the 1st of October tomorrow, where has this year gone? Do hope that Rocky, Robbie and Gal will all have happy forever homes before the end of the year. Xxx xxx

A very busy day today...The Pet Blood Bank were at the kennels. Current residents, Gal, Gracie, Pan and Special were all donors. :)) Lovely Bessie was more than happy to jump into the mobile unit and meet the vet and her assistants but was a little too scared to donate today. Xxx Pet dogs Shadow, Star, Betty, Freida, Sammy, and Nadia were donors too. Well done to them all! Xxx If you are interested in your Greyhound becoming a Blood Donor, please call The Pet Blood Bank on 01509 232 222. Cath came in with her little dog Pod and we introduced her to Gracie, Special, and Bessie who were all very good with her. Xxx Cath has Fostered Gracie for us! 🙂 She is going to help her lose a little weight as she is rather well rounded at the moment. :)) And hopefully find her a new home...Fingers crossed. Xxx Alan and Declan went off to the Warehouse for us. Thank you. Xxx Thank you to the visitors who brought in donations of bedding and food. We are very grateful for your support. Xxx Thanks so much to everyone who helped at the kennels today! Xxx

Today I saw Robbie go off to foster. Next was Dukey to go out to his new home and followed swiftly by Tegan now called Bella. We have taken in Lola today on respite and have new arrivals booked to fill the kennels. It has been non stop and inbetween this I have been trying to learn how to claim gift aid! This is normally Jo's task but with her still off sick, I am trying to take this over. If anyone has experience of this and is willing to help, I would be more than grateful!

Robbie
I’m Homed
ROBBIE HAS LEFT THE BUILDING! Ok.... don't get too excited - he has only gone out on foster but this is to assess all aspects of his behaviour which seem to have improved massively since his return at the beginning of the year when he pulled his owner over when a dog off the lead ran by him. He has gone with my dear friends Maggie and Paul who are looking after Roman. Robbie had a play in the sand run with Roman and even gave kisses to Roman through his muzzle once they were both in the back of the car. In the sand run, they both chased after a toy and played really well. Let's hope he finds his forever home soon and I will keep you posted with updates.
