Guest dwoolly Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I am new to GreyTalk, so I hope that this is the best place to announce that Breeze (Iruska Dustyrose) has joined our family, and after 4 hours, is still sleeping! No worries, though. For those of you that don't know Breeze, she is very shy and is only comfortable in her crate at the Northern Greyhound Adoptions, in St. Albans, VT. For the last 6 weeks, I have been working with her so that she might feel comfortable outside the building. Once she got to know me, we started going further and further, to the point where she trusts me to walk her just about anywhere. So the time was right to adopt her. She will still need some help - stairs, for one thing, but we've got a lot of time to work on those issues. Hope to keep everyone up to date on her progress, and hope to see everyone at NGA soon. Here's a quick picture of sleepyhead! http://picasaweb.google.com/dshadow08/Breeze?feat=directlink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dwoolly Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Hi from Philly. Breeze is beautiful and has an awesome name. If you were at the kennel, I have Bindi's mama - Gremlin. Bindi is such a nice girl - I thought about adopting her, but I have a older lab that needs a mellow playmate. So far, Breeze is the perfect sister. What a beauty, Congratz. I have Iruska Ice Cube, I wonder if they are related? Thanks - I checked greyhound-data but they weren't litter mates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tenderhearts Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Bless your heart for working with her and adopting her. My boy Randy was at Race The Wind kennels for 2 1/2 years because he was painfully shy. He's our big goofy lovable snuggler now! Looking forward to more pictures and hearing about Breeze!

Plus, I think brindles are the best. Yes, her tail has been docked - I don't know when. She is a great dog and just in the 60+ hours that she has been at our house, she is beginning to settle in. We took her for a walk yesterday afternoon and she went farther than I would have thought, even though there was some traffic on the road. She's still more comfortable in her crate than out of it, but I know that this is only a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
