I have to agree about everyone at RGT Okenden - they are all first class Nicky I totally agree. And that goes for Sonny's re-homing kennel too (RGOA). They also did a great job, and if it wasn't for them we wouldn't have Sonny now. It broke our hearts to see all the good work they were doing, and apparent lack of funds. I admire all those who have the greyhounds interests, truly at heart.

hi everyone,im Sarah,mummy to Baby who we got about 6 months ago from Ockendon.Baby is our first dog and she has slotted into our lives so well.We couldn't imagine life without her.She never raced as she was burnt in a kennel fire.she loves walks down leigh seafront and at two tree island where she gets to have a run off lead with her greyhound friend Sam.My son absolutely adores her,and the feeling is mutual!!she loves going to the school to drop/pick him up and getting petted by the other children!We absolutely love having her,even if she does get rather 'windy' sometimes!!!

Hi Sarah welcome to the forum. Your dog looks beautiful - they all are aren't they. We have Betty who has been with us for 7 weeks and has also slotted into our lives so easily. Greyhounds are fantastic and grey owners seem to be friendlier than other dog owners - I think thats because we like to talk about our babies! Nicky
