Recommended Posts

As many of you know we went on a road trip to southern Germany to fetch our new boy. Welcome to our pack, little Mooney :wub: Everyone is tired and alteady asleep. I will write an update once all the greyts are awake.

Welcome Mooney. Are you ready for a life of belly rubs and ear scritches?

and thank you Nadine for giving him a name I can spell without having to look up each time!

Sorry, to disappoint you. Mooney is his original name. I just kept it.

Such a beautiful black baby dog!  Did you choose him, and if so what made you decide on him?  Or did someone else pick him out for you? 

Do you think he's ready for the full force of Hurricane Saoirse?

I didn't want another dog so soon after Paddy past. But I had a phone call about an adoption I help with with our little adoption group. My friend Iris told me that a very young greyhound would be on the hauler, only 17 month old, with a shorter hind leg. He was never trained and raised in a home but he will need a home with no stairs and some physiotherapy sessions, too.... I told Roger about him, we discussed it and decided to take him.

Mooney is a small boy but with a strong mentality. He is afraid of nothing and very funny. He will be a great friend for Saoirse.

Is his hind leg noticeably shorter? I’m having trouble taking my eyes off that gorgeous face long enough to see :wub:

Yes, but it doesn't bother him yet. A friend of mine is a vet specialized in orthopedic surgery (part reason we adopted Mooney). He will take a look at him and we will see what we can do. Plus he will join the rest of my pack at their physiotherapy appointments evers 2 weeks.

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
