Does anyone know of a site offering to home greyhounds whilst you're on holiday. I don't mind having someones greyhound in exchange whilst they are away.

Don't know about a sitting service but we left our two at the Ockendon kennels for a week year before last. It was quite reasonable.

Thanks for that. Our two dogs went to kennels once and I wasn't impressed. I must add that it wasn't Ockendon. I was hoping to find somewhere a bit nearer.

Have to admit although they were treated fine and suffered no psychological distress for being left back at the kennels we agreed that never again, WE WERE NERVOUS WRECKS!

Thanks for your reply. That's why I would prefer a greyhound owner to care for them in their home and visa versa. I'm new to this and not very good on the computor, so haven't worked out how to give you a smiley face. Take care.

Don't know if this is any help but a girl who has worked at one of my suppliers and who adores Patrick (and every other dog she sees) has just set up her own business doing dog walking and sitting. Although I can't vouch for her services as we've not used her, she seems
to be a really nice girl with a lovely way with Patrick.

Thanks for that, I have replid to your latest message but don't know if you got it. It doesn't seem to say anywhere that the message was successfully sent. Does it really show that I am useless on a computor?
lol Regards.
