Thought I'd share a Greyhound that my husband and I fostered and adopted. I'm volunteering at an organization called, Fast Friends Greyhound Adoption, in Calif.
On Jan. 11, this dog was brought to Southern Calif, from the Caliente racing track in Tijuana Mexico, by Fast Friends. She had broken her leg racing on Jan 1 and had been placed in an " adoption pen." They were in great need for a foster family, for a " broken dog," as they have many needs.
We took her home and had her surgery done 2 days later; all covered by the rescue.
It was a very interesting 2-3 months, especially in the rain, with a cast on.
Needless to say, we adopted her and love her. I'm sorry I didn't know anything about this breed earlier. They have many differences to our regular dogs, but are unique in their own way. She loves anyone and everything.. there aren't any issues with Gracie, they Grey. Raven, the dog is in her crate, when Gracie flys, and barely even looks at her.
Raven went from confined, for 8 weeks, and still has to be in a least, even in the yard, however, is walking 1 mile twice daily.
She's a great addition to our family.
