Massive thank you to this beautiful bitch called Fabulous news and Jubilee Kennels for providing life saving blood donation this morning.
Greyhounds make ideal blood donors due to their high levels of circulating red blood cells.

Markstreet Dan - 5 years old

What a beautiful boy Dan is, a big handsome dog with lovely white and black markings. He's a 5 year old who has bundles of energy, he loves his walks and exploring new things and has loads of enthusiasm for life, he has plenty of oomph on the lead but doesn't overuse it. He's good with other larger dogs but not smaller breeds or cats and would appreciate any children in the home to be over 6
