...and he picked me.....

After a difficult year with my dogs, I decided to adopt an ex-racing greyhound. After seeing several greyhounds, in came Monroe - who immediately came over, put one front paw on my knee and said, let's go home! (I thought I wanted a small female - he's huge)!!!
Off we went with Lucy, my shepherd mix, who took to him in an instant. With multiple health issues, he had been at the rescue for 2 1/2 years! Living in a 4' x 4' crate for most of his life, his new-found freedom stunned him for a few weeks. With Lucy's direction , he started using his own door, and now is perfectly at home. He loves the couch, the car rides, the petting, goodies, and the ability to come in and out when he wants to. What a quiet, gentle dog he is - he has no idea what bite, bark or growl means! He talks abit, but has no idea what aggression is. How lucky am I to have found a companion that fits right in with everything and everybody!!!
