Perfect Gentleman

Well it's been cold outside but George doesn't seem to mind very much. After 189 races and mastering the stairs, he settled down for a well deserved cozy nap. Makes you want to snuggle right up with him!

We are amazed at how quick George has settled in and become a great house guest. We haven't had a single issue and he loves hanging with the kids.

I've continued clicker training with him and he's getting the idea! Touch the cup, get a treat. I'm not sure who's training who!

My new foster home

Well, King George has arrived at his new castle! Of course he has to share the throne with our own greyhound Casper (aka "Toolbox" - Covered in Snow's brother).

Right off the bat the two dogs took well to each other. George had the expected "nervous pacing" for the first day but has calmed down and seems to be adapting quite well. He has settled in faster than Casper. He was a little nervous the first night here, but he slept through the second night without a peep.

Our three children all like George, and he does well with all of them, especially our youngest. They have given both dogs plenty of attention and they love it. George is a very playful, fun loving and affectionate companion. He's certainly very tolerant of a "busy house", as is the case with the 3 kids! He loves to be with you and both dogs get excited when we come home.

He is an eager walker and loves to be outside. Everyone has commented on how beautiful and soft he is.

George has taken well to going up stairs which he learned on his own. We are working on going down. A great start! We've started clicker training (Thanks Jennifer!) and he seems to be food motivated so I expect he will train well. Stay tuned...

We've crated him when going out and even while we're here and have had no problems.

Great start for a wonderful dog!

Hey George...Good to see you back here.........

........we missed you here at Tara's B&B. I just got back myself and low and behold we have a bunch of newbies. Some of the these hounds are not even two years old yet. Can you imagine that? I guess they are going to make better pets than racers.

I just came for a visit and expect to be on my way soon. Let's chat next time they let us in the outdoors together. Maybe we can request to be neighbors. I have some "pull" with Tara.

Glad your here...Hardwood
