Joy and heartbreak combine in this bittersweet tale of a champion greyhound’s journey through life – and from owner to owner…

“The sack wasn't just drifting gently along like everything else, it was turning of its own accord. There was definitely something inside it, struggling against the side of the plastic bag, kicking at it, squeaking and squealing in terror. He had no idea what it might be, only that it was alive and in danger of drowning.”

When Patrick saves a litter of greyhound puppies from the canal, he can’t bear to hand them all over to the RSPCA. He pleads with his parents: couldn’t he just keep one of them? But nothing will convince them and Patrick cries himself to sleep – only to be woken by a greyhound puppy licking his face!

Patrick christens his puppy Best Mate, and that’s what he becomes. Patrick’s favourite thing is to watch Best Mate running at full stretch on the heath, a speeding bullet, a cheetah-dog. Until one day Best Mate is kidnapped by a greyhound trainer, and begins a new life as a champion race dog. Suzie, the greyhound trainer’s step-daughter, loves Best Mate on first sight and gives him a new name, Bright Eyes. But what will happen when he can’t run any more?

      could be improved but great for price
      Color: Tie-dye Purple Rainbow, Size: King (108" x 90")
      I have a faux fur throw from bedsure and I wanted one in a queen size as a blanket. Sadly, the bedsure company doesn't make one large enough, so I bought this one. It is thinner than the bedsure, definitely. The velvety backing is thinner and so is the fur itself. And like people say, the back and front layers are not attached. I haven't washed it b/c I decided to return it. I think for the price, tho, it's pretty adorable. If you're using this as a decorative cover -- it's totally worth it. The purple rainbow has very pretty muted colours, with splotches of bolder colour in some sections. I actually like that, and think it would make a charming gift for a young girl. It wasn't quite what I wanted, but I do think for this price point it's lovely. Very soft, does have a nice weight to is, and can function as a blanket if you've got something else underneath. I do think the manufacturer ought to attach the layers (the bedsure one has layers attached!) -- that won't really cost more, and it'll fix many people's complaints.

      Lucious, Gorgeous, silky & pillowy
      Color: Cream White, Size: Throw (50" x 60")
      High End Quality!!! I just unpacked and draped it over a railing-to just look at in Awe & then the feel. I imagine it feels like your in Heaven-on the wisps if clouds. Not thin, I remember my mom wrapping herself in mink (in the day before they knew better), but the Luxury of both feel and the look-OMG I got the white cream bubble. 2) only complaint is generic wash label. I wish there was a brand Label “Lotus Karen”. To the business company, 🙏Please consider putting your brand name on the Label. It’s outstanding!!! Claim your name for the outstanding quality you have in these throws and blankets. Large 50 x60

      Super Soft, warm and looks beautiful
      Color: Khaki, Size: Queen (90" x 90"), Color: Khaki, Size: Queen (90" x 90")
      Super soft. This is my 4th faux fur blanket and this one is by far the softest. Makes it a bit slippery it's so soft but not issue for me. Color beautiful and depending on the light ranges from a bone white to a khaki. Looks expensive. The velvet reverse side also very soft and cozy. Fluffed up beautifully after 20 minutes in dryer when first received. No shedding.Looks great as comforter on bed.

      A Must-Have for Cozy Comfort!
      I recently purchased the Serenhom Super Soft Cozy Faux Fur Plush Throw Blanket, and I am absolutely in love with it! If you’re looking for a blanket that combines luxury with comfort, this is the one. First of all, the texture is incredibly soft. The faux fur is plush and velvety to the touch, making it perfect for curling up on the couch with a good book or during movie nights. It’s lightweight enough to use year-round but still warm and cozy, especially on chilly evenings. The quality is also impressive. Even after several washes, the blanket has maintained its softness and hasn’t shed at all—a major plus for a faux fur throw. The stitching is strong, and it holds up well to daily use. In terms of aesthetics, this blanket adds a touch of elegance to any room. Whether you drape it over your bed, couch, or favorite chair, it instantly makes the space look more inviting. Overall, I highly recommend the Serenhom Super Soft Cozy Faux Fur Plush Throw Blanket to anyone looking to add comfort and style to their home. It’s a perfect gift for yourself or a loved one!
