    Finding a retired racer (East Coast U.S.)

    in Everything else Greyhound

    Posted · Edited by Mercsmom

    I've been looking at Goose (after you suggested that group) but couldn't get the personality information I needed.  And, yes, I'd even mapped out (1) fly to Knoxville (2) Drive to Chattanooga (3) Spend the night with my  niece and nephew in Huntsville (4) Fly home from Nashville.

    As I want a calming influence for Mercury during thunderstorms, it sounds like Goose would not work out. :( He is beautiful though! :beatheart

    It's time to find a brother for Mercury.  My desire:  A bombproof male under 5 years old.  My ideal: future Therapy Dog, black, black brindle, or cow.  But, beggars can't be choosers; it's all about the personality.

    My challenge:  We've just move to South Florida where there are no adoptable ex-racers.  (My husband refuses the the $2400 fee for an Irish hound.)

    Would you like to give me some suggestions for how to proceed?  I'm willing to fly (any Allegiant stop from Punta Gorda) to meet a hound, but, then, there's the issue of transporting him here.

    When the 2 younger hounds were on the couch, Piper would ask to go outdoors.  Mo an Spirit would leap up to go out too!  As they both pushed to get out the door first, Piper would turn around and hop hp on the couch.  That's the way it's done.

    When Mercury is in my chair, I'll go to the cookie jar and rattle it.  He trots in, gets a cookie, and I steal my chair back.
