Walking grey hounds

While Kerry and Craig were here last, at the Chestnut Sunday we found a stall for the Wimbledon Grey Hound Rescue centre (oddly no where near Wimbledon). They are ex-racing dogs which have no home. Some of them can be re-homed and are just waiting for their forever home but others never will be. They have been racing and living in a kennel too long. But they still need walking and still want a bit of love. You can volunteer to walk the dogs so this weekend I decided to give it a go. 

They are such sweet dog and so lazy. You can only walk them down the lane and back and they are done. My first dog was Leo who was such a happy lad. 

Happy Leo.


I tried to take some photos while walking but when they move they move. Otherwise so lazy. 
They also had a pair so I teamed up with a lovely lady and took Shauna and Romeo out. Shauna was very nervous, as she was new but relaxed once we started walking. Romeo, who I walked, was a charmer and a gentleman protecting Shauna but a solid muscle. There were only a few times he really wanted to go somewhere. But when he did, we went. I have no choice in this.

With (black) Romeo - there is also a white Romeo.
Today I woke up in a foul mood. So went to Bushy Park to sit in the sun with some wine and strawberries to cheer myself up. It worked.
