Guest iLoveLucie Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 This is Lucie! She is a 2.5 year old brindle, who ran a few races but never won. So she retired early and came to live with my husband and I. She is very friendly, curious, and smart. We were worried at first as we learned Greyhounds may not know how to climb stairs and we live on the 4th floor, no elevator. The wonderful people who fostered Lucie worked with her and she picked it up right away. Now we just have to work with her on slowing down sometimes so she doesn't drag us up and down them every time we go out We are so excited to have Lucie join our family. We are also excited to be part of the Greyhound Community! We have been so impressed with all the kindness and support from our local organization and in reading through this site I'm seeing much of the same. It seems like Greyhounds are a special breed of dog and their owners are a special group of humans. Looking forward to interacting with everyone here on GreyTalk! Now I'll try to add a pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrairieProf Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Welcome to GT! Lucie is gorgeous, I love her dark face. You are in for many wonderful experiences and adventures with her. I brought my girl home at age 2.5 a little less than two years ago so I can really relate -- and yes, the greyhound community is wonderful and provides a lot of fun and enrichment to one's life!

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
