Time flies

I can't believe it's been so long since I last did a blog entry!!

After the relative quiet of Christmas, 2010 started as busy as ever. So far this year we've rehomed 64 dogs and admitted 65 so you can see it's been a busy few weeks. Of course the weather has not been at its kindest and we did have a couple of days where staff struggled to get in but nevertheless made it.

We'd arranged a number of admissions that had to cancel because of the snow and yet some brave souls still made their way to us to adopt.

You may have seen on the website that this year we've moving our Christmas Party to a new venue - Uttoxeter Racecourse. There will be much more parking, the room we hiring is much bigger and it's very handy for both the M6 and the M1 so we look forward to seeing you there in Novemeber. More details will be on the website and in our magazine later this year.

Baz one of our centre cats has not been well lately. We know he's at least 10 or 11 years and arthritis has taken its toll on him. Some TLC and new injections from the Vet seem to be helping a lot and we've even had a few offers of a home for him so maybe Baz will have a very happy retirement to look forward to.

We've been off to various parts of the country recently helping collies - Gretna Green, Pembroke and London just to name a few and I'm sure we'll clock up a few more miles before the years out.

Bye for now

Ben
