Dad2Paisley Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I hope it's ok to post this. Remy passed away early Friday morning. He was such a good boy. He's not a greyhound but a Bull Dog Boxer mix. He had a rough early life living on the streets in Allegany County, Md. We think his owner kept him chained up all the time, abused him and Remy broke free and my wife's dog shelter got him.Nobody wanted to adopt Remy, he has fear and trust issues. He liked my wife, me and my sister.The lady who runs the shelter was going to put him down, but we adopted him and saved him.My wife worked very hard and Remy even went to dog boot camp to get re trained. Even though he didn't like people he didn't know, he was great with us and our greyhounds and other dogs at daycare.Remy and my wife trained in Rally and Nose work. Remy got his Certification 1 in them and got many ribbons for his competitions. Remy traveled many miles with us on our vacations and saw a lot in his 6+ years we had him.He protected us and our greyhounds and I will miss his sweat face. Rest now Remy until we see you again.

Rickiesmom Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 What a meltingly sweet face. So glad Remy and your family found each other, and that his life with you erased so much of what had happened to him before. My heart goes out to you both.
