🌟 Calling All Daybreaks Supporters – Jodie Needs Your Help! 🌟

*Although Jodie’s talking about rescue dogs, dogs rehomed from Daybreaks can be included as they’re still being rehomed to a new family, so she’s asked us to share.*

We’re putting out a special request on behalf of Jodie, one of our amazing supporters who is currently completing a photography course. As part of her project, Jodie wants to shine a light on the incredible transformation greyhounds go through—from those first days arriving at Daybreaks to blossoming into their true, goofy, confident selves in their forever homes. ❤️

📸 Jodie is looking for as many “before and after” photos as possible
If you have a hound who came through Daybreaks, we’d love you to upload:

🔹 A ‘before’ photo — when they first arrived at Daybreaks or first came home
🔹 An ‘after’ photo — showing their personality once they’d settled
🔹A couple of photos of your dog’s safe space at home (dog doesn’t need to be in this photo)
🔹Dog’s favourite toy (dog doesn’t need to be in this photo)

You can upload them directly to Padlet here: [https://padlet.com/jodieperkins03/the-transformation-of-rescue-dogs-8k88bhub66sbu5ol]

✍️ Along with your photos, please include a short summary of your dog’s transformational journey.
This will help Jodie capture the emotional story behind every face, and she has kindly agreed to share all the photos she collects with Daybreaks, meaning they may help us inspire future adopters too.

Thank you so much for helping Jodie—and for helping us continue showing the world just how special these wonderful dogs are. 💛🐾
