HAPPILY HOMED HOUNDS - DREAM

Some homings take a little longer than others. Home Run Hounds pride ourselves in taking the initial settling in period (foster to adopt) at the pace dictated by the individual dog.

Darling Dream (Alien Dream) was a nervous soul. She had enjoyed a few short term fosters, where we learnt that she took her courage from having a male greyhound around her.

Whilst in the racing kennels, Dream had always shared with her litter brother Bolt (Alien Bolt). Bolt had been homed to a lovely family some months prior, so imagine our joy (and anticipation) when they came to us, looking for a lady friend for him. We just knew we had to reunite these siblings, but would Dream cope in an active family unit ?

We needn't have worried💖 They met up again on site and Dream was instantly a different dog - recognising her brother straight away & making herself very much at home.

Dream can still be a little nervous around traffic noise, especially on the school run, but Bolt continues to be her strength and guide. Human wise, she is surrounded by so much love that she simply couldn't ask for more.

We're over the moon for you Dream and your wonderful family🐾

Thanks so much to our volunteers, Jo for organising and Caroline, Steph, Sally, Martyn and Karen for helping with the event at the transport show on Sunday. Also thank you to Steph for bringing foster dog Katie along who was brilliant.

Martyn and Karen brought Lucy and Thomas along and Thomas won himself a rosette in the dog show.

Sally came with Rocky who was very excited to meet everyone.

They all had short visits due to the heat.

We also had a visit from Monkspath home hound Frankie🐾

We raised £64.53 on the stall, and the very kind Jacqui ran the dog show which was sponsored by the transport show and despite the heat raised £85.79 🐾

Some great news to start your Tuesday!

Our enormous thanks goes to the organisers and participants of the Aero Golf Day, which raised an astronomical £4000 !

Huge thanks to all the sponsors, who generously supported our efforts, finding loving homes for retired racing greyhounds.

The weather was fantastic and a great day of golf was enjoyed by many. This is the 2nd year that Aero have hosted this amazing fund raiser for us, this time smashing last year's total raised of £3000.

We cannot thank you all enough for your support and your kindness. As a volunteer led charity, where no salaries are paid, 100p in every £1 is spent on our gorgeous greys.

Our homeless hounds are truly greytful🐾

CANWELL SHOW

With our new Trailer in place, and our bespoke cool coats working a treat, we were able to take a few of our "homeless" and homed hounds to this amazing event on Saturday.

A MASSIVE thank you to all our Volunteers who came along and supported us as well as Simon Yeates and Dennis Gwynne who got the Trailer to the event and set it up.

We were delighted with the number of people who came to see us at our new venue, as well as enjoying the cool air inside, in fact not many people wanted to leave !!

We were also delighted to have several enquiries for both Greyhounds and volunteering. The music kept us all singing along all day and it was lovely to be invited up on stage to show off the Greyhounds (thank you Simon Yeates and your Bro). See Video attached.

Lots of homings recently so the first to share with you is the fabulous Echo

HAPPILY HOMED HOUNDS - ECHO

Adorable Echo (Noduff Echo) found her fantastic forever home with Dad Ian recently.

Having had many dogs in his time, Ian was looking for a companion - gentle, friendly and fun. That just sums up tiny girl Echo, so a meeting was arranged for the 2 of them.

They instantly hit it off, with Echo resting her head in Ian's lap whilst the paperwork was being done - this little lady had well and truly adopted her Dad💖

Way to go Echo - we're all so happy for you🐾

Monday Morning Appeal

Charlie is a smaller Fawn boy who will be 6 in September and is looking for his forever home.

Our volunteers are working with him to increase his confidence. He will need a quiet family to help him with his confidence and if there is another dog in the family this will really benefit him.

If you have a soft spot for these nervous worried dogs, please get in touch...Charlie needs you!

(thank you to one of our amazing volunteers for making the enrichment board for our kennel hounds)👏

WELCOME TO OUR NEW EVENTS TRAILER.

We cannot thank our wonderful friend and supporter David Lankshear for his generosity in funding our new Events trailer in memory of his beloved wife Kath and Greyhound Zita. David now has Buddy and has supported us in so many ways, we cannot begin to find ways to thank him.

It was a great asset yesterday at Canwell Show (more on this event later). With us able to provide cooling areas and electric fans for the hound and volunteers.

A thank you also to volunteer Simon Yeates who helped organise this with me and sort the signwriting and Dennis Gwynne for his assistance.

We are absolutely over the moon with this new asset that will be available to all our Branches.

David ..... Thank you on behalf of Claire, myself and all at Home Run Hounds.
