Flora

Flora has adjusted very well to her new home. We feel so lucky to have her as part of our family! It's taken a few months to really "come out of her shell' but she's now playing with toys as well as our other greyhound! She's a wonderful fit and thank you for picking her out for us - she's perfect and we love her!

Flora instantly bonded to our 5-year-old daughter. They play hide-and-seek and ring-around-the-rosie! We are extremely pleased. She couldn’t fit into our family any easier.

Dillenger

Dillenger's profile said he showed no interest in toys. A few days after his arrival, I pulled a "squeaky" out of the tou box and showed it to him, squeaking it at him. He gently took it from my hand and proceeded directly to his crate where he deposited it for safe keeping. Throughout the day, I saw Dillenger making his way from toy box to crate, carrying squeakies. At bed time I counted how many were in his crate - 15!!! No hoarding or protective issues though. I remove tham all and he just starts over - DAILY!!!

Hi Everyone at NGAP-

I wanted to let everyone know what I have been up to since I left the kennel two weeks ago. First of all, the ride to NY state was fun and very restful. After a few minutes of looking out the window and watching my kennel home slowly disappear from view, I settled down and fell asleep on the nice soft bed my new mom had put down for me in the back of the car. It was a long ride but we stopped for lunch and I had a nice snack and a walk. I was a good boy in the car and waited patiently to see where I was going.

We finally arrived at our destination and Dad was there to greet me and welcome to my forever home. My ears perked up because I kept hearing all this barking and I soon found out where it was coming from as we went through the gate into the fenced yard. I was soon greeted by a yappy little terrier who came barreling out of the back door. We sniffed, wagged our tails and she was off again. But then, one by one, I met my other three greyhound sisters and I thought to myself, “WOW, a harem just for me.” Mom let me off leash and we all ran around and got to know each other. After a little while the girls ran to a door and I followed them right into the house.

This place was full of new and curious things. I kept seeing another greyhound but he wouldn’t come to see me and I would just stare at him for minutes at a time. I have since realized that it was my own reflection in the sliding glass door and windows-silly me! There were a lot counters in the kitchen area and they were full of tasty treats. I soon learned the word “NO” every time I put my paws up there to help myself. Two of my sisters took off and went up these things that seemed to go up in the air. I soon learned they were called stairs and it was a lot of fun to run up and down them. My sisters were very graceful when they climbed them but I was a little more awkward. But now I look just like them as we have races up and down, especially in the morning. Then there was this tree thing on the corner of the breakfast nook and thought, “YIPPEE, indoor plumbing”! I started to use it and I soon heard that “NO” word and was escorted outside. Well, I never did that again!

Mom and Dad say I’m a smart boy and a very quick learner and that I have made myself at home in no time at all. I went to my first Meet & Greet this Saturday and had a ball meeting tons of people and getting lots of hugs and kisses. Speaking of kisses, mom gives me a lot right on the top of my head. If she doesn’t stop she’s going to give me a bald spot right there-and just when my thin spots are growing more and more hair. “GEEZ”.

So I wanted to thank everyone at NGAP for taking care of me, giving me the basics I needed and finding me a GREYT forever home. By the way, Mom and Dad say thanks also and they are so glad I’m here!
