MESSAGE FROM JOHANNA (KENNEL OWNER)

Johanna (who owns the Kennels) has asked me to post this message in its entirety on her behalf. (Please remember she doesn't use a computer so doesn't see anything online directly): "Thank you everyone who came on Sunday 10th - what an amazing gathering of people and dogs, not to mention the cakes! I cannot begin to tell you what a boost it gave me. It was my first outing since I came out of hospital and I am certain it aided my recovery. I still have a way to go yet, but I am getting there. I cannot find words to express my thanks to my wonderful staff who so valiantly stepped in to run the Kennels in my absence - a special thank you to Louise as we usually share the paperwork/emails/phone calls etc and she had to deal with it ALL overnight. I am happy to say that I can now help and will be back to the kennels every Sunday from 24th March onwards (and on Thursdays from April). Love and thanks to you, Johanna"

FEEDING

Please ensure you are feeding your greyhounds enough food. We have a recurring problem with dogs being underfed. Ribs and hip bones should be nicely covered and not protruding. (Of course, some greyhounds are naturally more slender but as a general rule, bones should not be sticking out). Three large mugs of biscuits plus something tasty for the boys... and slightly less for the girls is the general rule of thumb. Boys generally weigh between 32-39kg and girls between 26-33kg (depending on the size of the dog). We give out feeding guides so please email if in doubt.
