love tanya julie xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Fi, sorry to hear Charlie has had to have more treatment on his pad; I hope it will be ok this time. He was obviously not impressed about going back to the vet and left a little message or two or three...! Twiggy has also done a wee on the vet's floor, she just couldn't resist that big plant they have by the door! Please give Charlie a hug from us. xx

Hi kate, it was lovely to meet you and twiggy too bless her! Charlie has had no ill effects from the bone but he has been back in the vets today to get another op on his pad cos it isn't healing very well :o( my poor little lad out of spite he did 3 little wee wees on the vets floor when I picked him up this afternoon bless him. He's a bit wobbly and sorry for himself but seems ok xxxxx

Hi Fi, it was very nice to meet you briefly at the vet's last week. Sorry Twiggy was not very sociable with your two lovely hounds which is a great pity as I would love to have met them. I do hope Charlie's paw is better soon and he has no ill effects from eating the bone. Kind regards Kate and grumpy pants, but my little angel Twiggy! xx

Thanks everyone, so far he seems ok so far. He's at the vets twice a week with his leg at the moment anyway so an appointment is never far away xxx

Fay is one for finding food while we are out. One time she walked all the way home carrying a Lamb bone. Another time she picked up a quarter of a orange. I am becoming an expert at getting tasty scraps from Fays mouth before she has a chance to enjoy them.

Ha, ha Julie, yes, why is it that Grey owners examine their dogs' poo so much. I remember the first time I walked Gent, I had to extend my arm to the fullest length to pick it up and boy did I wrinkle my nose. These days, I'm like Gillian McKeith I study it so much!! Hope Charlie is okay Fi. Gent ate a whole squirrel once and we couldn't catch him to get it off him. I tried to reassure myself by thinking that in the wild, dogs would eat what they caught (small bones included), but I did keep a close eye on him for any small signs that something might be wrong. He was absolutely fine thoughand wondered what all the fuss was about! Mand x

Hi Fi
The problem with any cooked bones is that they splinter where raw bones usually don't, just keep an eye on him and his poos (favourite topic for grey owners anyway :) ) and if he seems uncomfortable or strains but nothing appears or there's blood etc etc I'd get him to a vet asap. Having said that my Tig once passed a piece of wire with no ill effects so I'm sure he'll be fine :) If he does it again I'd been told feeding as much bread as they'll eat can help cushion the bones sharp edges as it goes through them but check with your vet :)
Best wishes Julie

Hey Fi, Toby worried me when he did this the first time - he actually stole a chicken bone out of our bin !! He chomped it and it was gone b4 i cud do anything - he's so naughty x x x I worried for days waiting 4 it to "pass" but it didn't - that was about 10 months ago or so ! As long as Charlie is eating and his other end is working then I wudn't be concerned hon !! x x x

Thanks sara, he was very pleased with himself!! Fly then dragged me across the grass so he could hunt himself some scraps...but I was wise to it by then. It does annoy me people littering full stop, and glass everywhere, I never noticed how much glass is everywhere until I had the boys! I hope he is ok, seems fine so I'll stop worrying. Hope you are ok lovely xxx

Hi Fi. Cracker n now Charlie hav been hunting kfc for years now. They kno where the local one is n pass it daily usually picking up scraps as they go. I try t look out 4 bones b4 they c them but most times they've eaten them b4 I realise. Up til now they've never had any bad effects in fact they very much enjoy the fact they've found there own food n seem very chuffed with themselves. I'm sure Charlie is just as pleased with himself n will do it nxt time he gets chance. I do wish people wud put the bones in the bin tho, it'll save havin t worry. X

Hi everyone... Whilst out on our walk this afternoon I think charlie may have eaten a small chicken wing bone, someone had dumped a kfc box in the grass and charlie got to it before I even noticed and ate something!!! This was about 2 hours ago and he seems ok and has eaten his tea and is asleep! Should I be worried? He hasn't choked or anything but I am a bit worried xxx

Charlie jad his check up today and his foot is healing really really well! Even the vet commented on what a good boy he is as he just lay on the table and let the vet get on with it. What a little star I have xxxxx

Thanks everone! He is so so much more himself this morning and really getting better on his leg! Thnks for all the wishes and kind words. I think I'm more of a stress over it than charlie xxxxx

Hope Charlie is backed to his old self and mum is feeling better too.

Big hug for Charlie. Hope he's feeling better this morning. xx

Better to be over protective than not care at all...I bet he's back to his cheeky self this morning! xxxx

Thanks hun, he bounced to life briefly At ten so I gave him some chicken and a little bit of rice and he ate a baby bit then cried for a bit but he's lying down again. Thanks for putting up with me I feel like an over protective parent ha ha xxxxx

Bless him.... guess I am too used to having dogs after an op.... don't worry Fi, he will be ok. Best not to bother him too much - let him rest, try him with some food tomorrow and by tomorrow he will be bouncing back to normal..... give me a call if you are worried x Wrap him up, keep him warm and as quiet as possible x

He is home and very wobbly indeed! Horrible to see my usually so happy boy so sad, even fly seems sad :o( he's very shaking and panting a lot. So far not interested in his scrambled egg and chicken... Or water. Hoping this is all normal and have been bothering ruth for advice, thanks hun. I'll see how he is in the morninh and hope he's perked up. Poor baby xxxxxxx

I hope he will be back on the sofa very soon, enjoying being spoilt by his Mummy! xx

Hope everything went well, he'll be home soon, probably slightly wobbly (!) for lots of cuddles! xxxx

Waiting for news on my boy, his operation is done...he's still out cold! xxxx

My brave handsome baby is going to the vets tomorrow to have his corn removed! I know he is in good hands but worrying none the less! Won't be happy till he is back home on the sofa with mummy! Love my charlie boy xxxxxxxx

Charlie, Happy Birthday for last Sunday. xx

Happy Birthday Charlie. Sounds like you have had a smashing day xx

Happy birthday Charlie. Us white and brindle boys are soooo good looking arn't we! Hope you don't over do the celebrations too much, have a good day Tom. x

Thanks for Charlie's birthday message! He has had a lovely day at home with daddy and floppy and then we sang happy birthday and ate some cake. Then we went on a lovely walk in the woods once it cooled down! Cake was yummy :o) xxxxx

Happy birthday Mr Charile Glynn, your mummy has totally spoilt you today....you are going to have a great tea tonight!!

Happy birthday Charlie, bet you look very handsome in the new bling your mum was treating you to today! :-)

Happy birthday to my handsome prince chaarlie! I can't put into words how much happiness my gorgeous boy has brought to our lives.. I hope for many more years to come. Don't know what I'd do without you!!! All our love mummy, daddy and his royal flybess xxxxx

Does anyone know of a nice enclosed field I can take charlie to? Tamworth or surrounding area? Xxx

Such terrible news, but Belle had the most fantastic, albeit short, retirement which is all a grey could ever ask for. Sleep tight little one xxx

Oh claire i am so so sad for you! my thoughts are with you and your mum and dad i know how much Belle was loved by all of you! love and hugs. Fi and Charlie xxxxxxx

so sad to hear that you lost your beloved Belle...she will be with you in your memories but will have left such a gap in your lives. my sincere condolences to you all,, much love ..Ina

hi fi, ruth and all.
just to let u know that belle my lovely loyall hound passed away last sat aged 8, would of been 9 today. christian at fivelands did all he could for her but her liver had failed and there was nothing he could do. i am so sad without her and i cant believe i am writting these words. tilly (queen of scholes) is also missing her sister. sad times. thought u would want to know fi just incase u were planning on bringing charlie for a walk with his girlfriend again soon. see u all soon. claire matthew and Tilly. xxx :-(

Thanks guys,he's ok not as settled as usual and very whiny. But he isn't really allowed walks for ten days whilst his tablets start working. Bless him, feel very mean oonly giving him small walks. X x x

Mckenzie is always banging into things with his big feet and then cries like a baby...hope Charlie is going to be back to his usual cheeky self soon, lots of love Ina and the boys. xxxx

Hi Fiona, you will get used to him doing this - it becomes a regular ocurance for most greys!

oh no hope he feels better soon.
but glad he has settled in ok.

hope to see you both soon

xxxxxx

Poor boy ran into the door and has been limping, been on a little trip to the vets and got some anti inflammatory, vet seems happy thats its nothing to worry about! bless him, he was feeling sorry for himself yesterday! xxx

How lovely to hear how happy you both are. Kind regards. xx

Fabulous news. So happy for you.

Well my beautiful and handsome boy has settled in brilliantly! he loves his walks and treats and is so loving and affectionate! i wouldnt swap him for the world and i wonder how i ever lived without a dog before now!! xxx

Hi ruth, the limp seems to have come back on tonights walk. Will give you a call tomorrow and get vet details. Hope he's ok. Xxx

this is so lovely, thanks for letting us know how he is doing, i bet you still can't believe you have got him home and i guess he can't believe his luck to finally be with his mum. see you both soon. love Ina xxx

Thanks, his first night was great, he slept all night and didnt make a sound, went for a lovely walk last night and this morning! had a couple of little accidents but nothing that cant be cleaned up. just so so happy to have him! i looked over at him and cried last night to see him curled up on his bed! his legs going ten to the dozen, think he was dreaming! :o) xxxxxx

Yay, well done Glynn, we've all waited sooo long to see this lovely picture and that green rehomed sign, not least your poor mum :0) xxx

mom said he went and sat on belles bed. typical greyhounds ay, any where to relax will do.i am so happy you are finally able to have one and especially as he was the one you really wanted at the start. it must be fate.
hopefully you can pop round again and we could take all 3 for a walk over the park.
good luck in your new home and your lovely own hound.
from claire, tilly and belle next door. x

Well done gorgeous! 2 rosettes. I hate going home and leaving you, counting down the weeks till i can have you home xxx

Hey gorgeous boy! could have well done wih a Glynn size cuddle today, ill have to get extra at the weekend! xx

Hi Fi..... he looked at me as I leaded up mine to take home and he had spent the day in the big run with them.... couldn't possibly leave him on his own! He is fast asleep..... still! x If you want to come and visit him at mine, just let me know x

Why did you feel sorry for him? is he ok? I wish i fininshed work in time to see him at the kennels before you close :0( give him an almighty love from me xxxxx

Today I felt sorry for Glynn..... so guess what..... he's come home with me! Spent a frantic half an hour running around but he has now crashed out on the lounge floor fast asleep. Bless x

He won my heart the moment i saw him!xx

Well done Glynn- be as affectionate to your new owners as you were to us and I'm sure you will melt their hearts with your funny ways in no time.

So pleased to see that Glynn is reserved. He would often just stand still so that you could give him a cuddle. I am sure that he would stand there all day if you didnt stop. So I am giving him a cuddle today and wish him all the best.

Love you gorgeous boy!! xxxxxxxxxx

Hooray for you Glynn reserved again. I am so happy for you - Be lucky big boy xxxxxxxxxxxx

Very sad for you all. Kind reagrds xx

Hi Fay's Mom & Dad. I expect you are feeling pretty low but just want to say chins up and at least you can be sure that you gave it your best shot. Having met Fay's dad on a couple of occasions we know you had been thinking hard about a friend for Fay so you will be very disappointed. Don't be put off as I'm sure that you will find the right one in time. We have Lena on trial and while things look good at the moment we are very mindful that it's early days and things can change. Agree with Donna also that the time Glynn has spent with you also gives him an advantage for potential owners. Love from Linda, Paul & the 2 black girls x

Awww, never mind, another home will come along soon.x.

Hey faydad you gave him a fair chance, and thats what matters. He obviously wants to be an only boy. Its difficult but i am sure Ruth will find him a good home and you have paved the way for his next owners. With best regards Donna

Poor Glynn sorry to see you back at the kennels today. I hope you will find a home of your own soon.xxxxxxxxx

Feeling absolutely gutted today. Decided to return Glynn.....
What a beautiful , intelligent, gentle,and playful dog he is. We returned him because our existing dog is way too timid to handle Glynn's enthusiasm and bullishness (behaving like a typical dog !), and is slowly being forced out of her own house by Glynn's domineering nature.(I think he waged Psychological warfare on her as he certainly hasn't displayed any nastiness) In the 2 weeks we have had him he has settled in really well as part of the family and has not shown any aggression at all (even when manhandled into the bath, trod on & generally pushed and pulled about the place). I would happily trust him alone in the house with my 11 year old.

PLEASE could someone give Glynn a home - he is easily house trained, & would be a wonderful addition to a family with or without kids to love and entertain him-( but without another dog).Don't be put at by his bare bum - that's down to being in the kennels and immediately started growing back once he relaxed in our home.

oh no!!! Why are you back Glynn???

How sweet he is giving Fay his toys, he can't fail to melt her heart! xx

All looking good so far. Glynn is settling in well. He is so full of life and wants to investigate everything. He supervises everything that we do and makes sure that it is done right. The last couple of days he seems to have calmed down a little bit and is more content to lounge on his bed. Fay is taking her time deciding if she wants a brother but I think that she is slowly coming around to the idea especially as he tries so hard by presenting her with toys and trying to lie by the side of her. They both greet you in the morning wagging their tails and smiling at you. I think they are both trying to out smile each other.

Glyn looks so happy, well done gorgeous boy for finding a loving home xxx

I am absolutely delighted to read an email from Mike and Elaine who have got Glynn on trial. I have attached the photos and they show how relaxed he is. Just worried perhaps that his duvet is possibly not being enough!!!

Wow, super, outstanding!!! A little teat of joy flows down my face to know that Glynn has now in a home! I know he will be a great pet! I can now sleep easy again! Well done Daybreak, you guys are simply the best! Well done faydad for taking on this gorgeous dog!

Well Ist day over and Glynn appears to be settling in well- We are doing our best to persuade him to stop 'marking' everything he walks by in the house and we've had to evict him from our new leather suite on several occasions- main thing is he & Fay seem to be getting along ok.
His appetite and interest in everything that moves seems to have returned with a vengeance !

Good luck glynny, I hope your gettin on with your new mom, dad n sister. U b a good boy n ur hav a forever home. X

I am so pleased you've been reserved, such a beautiful boy who will make his new owner's very happy xxx

Fantastic! Fingers and everything else crossed for Glynn in his new life to come.
Some lucky person will get to see that cute face all of the time! x

great news - good luck Glynn

Brilliant, sending best wishes, hugs and kisses.x.

OH MY GOD!!!! i actually saw this reserved sign and burst into tears! Extremely happy and absolutley gutted my circumstances arent different so i can have you for myself. Eve more gutted as i wont get to see you before you go as i am on holiday for two weeks :o( Good luck in your new home gorgeous gorgeous boy!! xxxxxxxxxx

Great news - have a lovely life, beautiful boy!!xx

wonderful news that this gorgeous lad has got a home to go to at last. good luck beautiful boy. xxxx

Well done lovely boy! xx

ahh bless. well done Glynn. be happy in your new home, you have waited long enough xxx

Reserved at last wonderful!! Well done Glynn. xxx

I sit here with my Sadie on my lap and am rather upset that Glenn is still without a family to love. He captured my heart and is such a gorgeous dog, he has soul! Wish I could fit him on the settee with me and Sadie, but then the wife would have to sit on the floor!

hello glynn hope that you find a new home with family
love tanya come to my home xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

we have rehomed 4 greyhounds since 2007 and 3 of them have been related to glynn.please someone give him a chance ours have settled in and are very loving companions,two of ours have been large dogs but gentle giants and fabulous with our 3 children,aged 11 and 16.

Please giv him a chance he deserves his time in a home & he is so affectionate. He's gettin more & more stressed in is kennel. Can good person just giv him a chance at the home he so deserves. X

I love Him !!!

I have everything crossed thats its your turn to get picked next gorgeous boy xxx

we had a big snuggle and all he craves is a home of his own where he will be loved and treasured and he will give it all back to you threefold. he is a wonderful boy and i hope that someone will offer him a home very soon. xxxx

I would take him home myself if i could, he's such a gorgeous boy, cant wait to see him and go for a walk tomorrow! Whoever takes gets to take home this dog has a friend for life, he is so affectionate and loves his walks! I cant believe he hasnt been snapped up yet! Get yourself over to see him Tinley xxx

He's winning my heart, Fi. I just hope he isn't gone before I can make arrangements to visit him........then again, I hope he is gone to a lovely, loving family as I can't believe he hasn't gone already.

I really hope you get to take him home with you! He is a very handsome boy. x

if glynn is still here after my holiday i am going to see if my mom and dad will let me have him, i have been volunteering for years now so i think its about time i had a grey snoozing with me at home! and glynn would be perfect, i love him! x

I am a little heartbroken, after going to Daybreak today for the first time, I fell madly for this gorgeous guy! He is a very loving and gentle big dog who made an instant bond with me and my 6 year old lad! Shame I couldn't take him.

Glynn and i had some special time together and i simply can't understand why he is being overlooked. just because he is big does not mean he will take up a lot of room, 2 of my lads are big and they curl themselves up into neat little greyhounds just like the smaller brother. good luck handsome. xxxx

Gutted i couldnt make it to see you today, was hoping for a reserved sign when i logged on today! I just know you'll win someones heart soon. See you next week gorgeous boy xxxx

no one for this handsome boy yet? he is sooo lovely and sooo affectionate someone will get themselves a wonderful hound by adopting this boy, go on you know you want to...xxxx

Ok, i admit it, i've fallen for you!! I hope you find a lovely new home very soon gorgeous boy!! xxx

you are really cute I hope I can come and see soon beatiful lad :Dxxxx

got another Glynn sized hug on tuesday...he is sooo lovely. :-)) xxxxx

Glynn greeted me with the biggest ever greyhound kiss and a wonderful cuddle when i got into his run, he is such a soppy affectionate boy who loves nothing better than a snuggling session, very sweet natured. xxx

Glynn has become really affectionate and looooooves people! He loves to play and have a cuddle but is also happy to have a snooze and relax. He would make a wonderful pet! x

what a lovely boy he is, not just to look at but he is really loving and friendly and his eyes just melt your heart. hopefully someone out there will open their heart to this big lovely lad very soon. xxx

How gorgeous is he??? It's probably good for me that he would prefer to be an 'only dog'!

i love his photos he looks so beautiful and on the second picture he looks really lovely. hope he will find a home soon. xxx
