11 - Molly Hello

-
Well Hello Molly! We welcome Molly into our home as our new foster!  She's a pretty girl (a bit smaller than Precious) who was a AA racer down in Texas and West Virginia.  She has a very sweet personality and was really calm meeting the kids as she checked out our house.  She will be 4 soon and she is fresh off the track, learning the ways of retired life.  She'll be with us until she finds her forever home.  We'll be teaching her all kinds of skills she's never been exposed to before.  She's already checked out the entire house, found some things she is not allowed to have, did fantastic on the stairs, used the bathroom outside, and finally crashed on her nice soft bed.  Check back here for her adventures with our family and updates on how she's getting acclimated.  Take a look at Greyhound Pet Adoptions of Delaware for adoption info!

16 - Molly Days

Molly has been slowly opening up to us each day a bit more.  Yesterday, unprompted, she sat down with the kids on the floor and laid her head on Suzanne's leg.  She did this about three times.  She's still does not like to be disturbed when she is sleeping so we've learned to leave her be.  We also found a bone she likes to chew finally as other ones we got her were not a big hit.  Although she loves all food, not everything agrees with her stomach.  Its been a bit of a struggle to find the right food for her but Purina Pro Plan Sport (suggested by Gail from GPAD) seems to be the right choice.  We noticed an immediate improvement.  I can't say it works well for every greyhound off the track, but for Molly, it certainly has.  Oh, and she chewed through two cords so far that were plugged in to the wall (thus our quest to find her chew bones).  But, with a face like this how can you stay mad?

9 - Precious Radar

When we go on walks with Precious, it is full radar alert time.  The ears go up, face forward, and the sight tracking begins.  There is not one sound she doesn't respond to.  She has exceptional hearing.  Not a big fan of trash trucks and school buses.  However, she's done really well with other dogs.  Interested, but non aggressive.  She's a good girl...
