💪 Rob & Leighanne are taking on a 15k Tough Mudder on 26th July – all to raise money for Daybreaks Greyhound Trust and help rehome and care for ex-racing greyhounds 🐾

It’s going to be muddy, and exhausting – especially with those huge obstacles and potentially scorching temperatures! 🥵 And it’s Leighanne’s first ever mud run, making it an even bigger challenge 💥

They’ve already raised 50% of their target – can you help them go the distance for the hounds?

👉 Donate here:

Every donation makes a difference.

Thank you for caring ❤️

🌟 Happy Forever Home Friday! 🐾💙

We have some truly wonderful news to share — Barney’s campaign was a success! 🎉

Thanks to your donations, shares, and likes, we raised all the money needed to cover his much-needed dental surgery. His operation went smoothly, and we’re over the moon to let you know that Barney is now loving life in his forever home!

His lovely new mum has even written a heartfelt poem about Barney's new chapter:

When I arrived at Kennels, my mouth was really bad
The pain and the suffering made me feel oh, so sad
You took me to the vets, and they knew just what to do
So it was adios to my teeth, forever, to-da-loo

In the days that followed, my gums were really sore
But my foster mum and dad made me feel less unsure
And soon I flourished, then started to shine
It was clear to see, I needed a home to call mine

So you popped me on the website for all to see
And along came Cath and Neil, excited to meet me
I gave them licks and wags and my best doggy smile
(Which really isn’t easy when you’ve been without teeth for a while!!)

But my magic really worked and we all fell in love
We are the perfect fit, just like a hand in a glove
And so five weeks later, life is really good
I’m loving my retirement years, as every doggy should

You can see from his photos just how well he’s doing — full of life, happiness, and love. 🐶💕

On behalf of everyone at Daybreaks, and especially Barney and his new family, thank you so much for your support. You made this happy ending possible! 🙏
