Thanks a bunch guys. We checked her paw again and didn't find anything. She seems better this morning. Thank you again for the advice. Anna is our first Greyhound and we are still learning.

She doesn't want to put any pressure on her right front paw. She doesn't have any obvious issues like corns or cuts. It has gotten worse as the day goes on. She's going to the vet in the morning, but it makes me feel terrible to see her feeling bad. Any suggestions for making her comfortable? The vet's office said to cut out her walk this evening, but no other advice. Wish us luck

[What Brand Of Dog Food Do You Feed Your Greyhounds - Revisited]

We use TOTW Venison and add some plain yoghurt. Anna seems 'itchy' though. She turns quickly to look at her thigh as though a fly or gnat were bothering her. She doesn't have fleas and we don't use pesticides, so it may be a food issue. Our Spaniel has had way fewer ear issues on this food (allergies), but his skin is really dry and flaky. Hoping to figure this out.

WOW! Thanks for the warm welcome and the info! Two relatives! I am so surprised. Anna looks a bit like Toby. She's a brindle. We say she looks like a cheetah She is SUPER sweet. I can't tell you. We are crazy about her. My husband, Mr. Wedon'tneedanotherdog always seems to grab her leash when we head out for a walk I'll get a picture up asap. I don't know how you guys take such beautiful pictures! She is hard to photograph. Is there a trick??? Thanks again for the lovely welcome, it made my day.

Hello Everyone,

We adopted Anna (Sharsanna) in March from the Animal Welfare Society in Kennebunk, ME. My daughter and I were looking for the right CAT to fill a gap left by a great CAT that passed away over a year ago. We had never even seen a Greyhound before we met Anna. It was love at first sight. We went back and visited her three times that week as I tried to talk my husband into adopting her. Finally I told him that I couldn't leave her there or let her go anywhere else and he understood. If only the family didn't keep saying I have become obsessed with Greyhounds!

I love your pictures and helpful posts. These dogs are not like other dogs and it really helps to be able to read through a forum and get advice. I have actually found myself in tears over a few sad posts. Thanks again. I'll try to learn how to post pictures so I can upload a picture of Anna.
