Thinking about Marty made me wonder how Archie is doing in his foster home after he was returned in April? Hope all is OK. I love the older black boys x

Happy Birthday Marty. Surely a 6 year old should have a forever Mommy.? We only fostered Fat Neck Finlay for 2 weeks and just had to go for it in case someone else (who didn't know about his food fetish lol) snapped him up. A FFP tee shirt could be the incentive LOL x

2019 Daybreaks Diary!

Holly has found herself a home! 🙂 It was great to see her reserved today. She has been very down in the dumps since her kennel mate Hugo went home at the weekend. This was just what she needed. Xx Hugo's new Dad called this afternoon to let us know Hugo is doing really well. :)) Rose is a lot better...her poo looked great! It really made our day! :)) Four of us stood and studied it! :)) Bounty ate a little better today, which is great news. 🙂 She is such a very sweet little girl. Sharing with Nick who is a very tall lad makes her look even smaller! It wasn't quite so hot today and we were able to do morning and afternoon walks. I heard Horsey was a really good boy and didn't stop when it was time to come back! He is a very happy lad with real character. Xx Many thanks to everyone for their help today. 🙂 Xxx

Shani,most of the weight Archive lost was muscle waste. Now our vet says he is like a bodybuilder all big at the top and weedy legs !! As he uses his front legs more. His bad leg is better but not the same as the other. Stay brave. Xxx

It was lovely to be back to the kennels today and being able to meet the gorgeous houndies. Rose was unable to come for a walk today but was a lovely affectionate little girl who was happy to meet and greet anyone who wanted to stop for a moment. I think she is going to be a character. xx

I've sent Jack a hug and hope that he will soon be back to full strength. Our previous dog spent a very long (for us anyway) weekend at the vets after having a tumour removed and we couldn't wait to bring her home. As soon as she arrived home she went straight to bed and seemed to move on from the horrible experience much better than we did!

It must be so very hard to see your lad so poorly. He is being very brave and the vet sounds positive about his progress. I am sure being able to take Dexter to see him at the weekend will cheer you all up. Lots of love Kate Xxx

Hi Kate, after what has been a difficult weekend for us emotionally, I have spoken with the vet this morning. He says Jack had made more progress this weekend in how he is placing his feet (still supported). We went to see him Saturday and he seemed quite down, we tried to be positive but I think he picked up on our mood bless him, he seemed better on Sunday when we went, he is eating well but when the nurse and Ken carried him outside to see his progress I was shocked to see how thin he has become, he's a bag of bones, it's awful to see, the nurse and vet today explained that this is muscle he has lost and is normal and will return when or if he becomes mobile. He assured me Jack is going in the right direction and is doing really well after such a short time, we just want our boy back, we have to be positive for Jack's sake but honestly sometimes the enormity of it overwhelmes me. On a more positive note we can take Dexter to see him on Saturday, they will put him in one of the big consulting rooms so they have got plenty of space, we are all sure it will be wonderful for both dogs as they are really missing one another. The nurse did say that all the nurses are in love with Jack and even the Receptionist comes in every morning to see him, which is lovely for us to hear. Thank you for thinking about him, we really appreciate it Kate xxxxxxx
