Update on
the 8 plus 1!
After
a really magnificant homing start to the
year we are pleased to report that all
seem to have settled in their new homes
and are giving their owners no end of
pleasure.
Helen
and Phil, can now have those long walks
again with Casper after the awful loss of
Basil their greyhound just before
Christmas at the grand age of 15.

Casper
making the most of retirement.
Cleo
who is really still a puppy at just 19
months old gives no end of pleasure to
Wayne, Sandra and their little lad Kyle
who can't wait to get back from school
and play with his new friend.
Peppi
now Dax shares the sofa with Jen's
lurcher Sandy and is such a gentleman.
Maisie
- Maisie is doing really well, she was a
little shy and is taking a bit longer to
trust but an update today (Sunday 10th
Feb) informs us that she has turned the
corner and coming out of herself.
At a dinner party given by her mum and
dad, Michelle and Keith, she even managed
to charm a guest who isn't a doggy person
- well done Maisie!!!
Smartie,
well what can we say, Jehanne reckons
it's like they have always had him - his
tail never stops wagging and Jehanne,
Roger and Frances can't believe what a
character he is turning into. Long
queues of family and friends are
periodically arriving to view the famous
'Smartie'.
Then
we have the new sanctuary girl
Dilly. Bless her she is no trouble
at all has just slotted in. She is
like our Paris in a lot of ways and at 13
spends a lot of time just laying in a
sunbeam snoozing, but equally enjoys a
little walk on the beach. She is
not the best eater in the world so we are
attempting to discover what suits her
palate - hopefully not caviar!!!!!!
Her little world has been turned upside
down since found lying beside her owner
who had died on Christmas Day, she then
went into foster and now she has come to
live with us.
Next
week, weather permitting, will see the
arrival in Guernsey of Sammy. Poor
Sammy is not the Hollywood version of a
greyhound but we know Tracey and Chris
will love him to bits and he is a very
lucky pooch who will be sharing food
bowls with Anna the red setter and Ellie
and Retriever.

Anna
and Ellie chilling out waiting for their
new brother.
Keep
logging on for news of Sammy's arrival.
Here's a little teaser - not the clearest
of photos but we'll soon have some larger
close ups!
