Mylo/Lady

We have a new family member as of Sunday!

Saturday afternoon Sam and I hit Petsmart to see who was available for adoption and ran into a couple who was trying to adopt out their greyhound mix. We were immediately drawn to this dog, and after talking with the couple and hanging out with the dog for a bit, we got their phone number, talked about it, and arranged to adopt this pretty little lady.



She has been fitting in perfectly with the household - she is gentle with Jessa (who needs gentleness, since she apparently pulled a muscle this weekend and is moving very slowly), and she just wants to be friends with the cats. Her energy level is pretty low, until she gets outside, when she loves to run and chase and scout for squirrels.

The couple who had her before did all the hard work of training her, so we are enjoying simply having to enforce our rules, such as "off" the couch and chairs and bed, and no licking the dishes in the dishwasher, etc.

We keep being amazed at how well she is fitting in, and are constantly saying to each other how cute and how elegant she is. We never imagined that we'd be so impressed by a greyhound, but she is great!

I would hate for this to be only a monologue; please join in the conversation! :)
