Yes - Nova Scotia I think. I wish more people would consider rescues too. I have always rescued older dogs because people tend to overlook them. My little fellah (photo further up thread) is the light of my life. I don’t think I could have done this last year or so without him tbh.
How many dogs do you have? I had another look at Buddy this morning - he’s lovely. I wrote one of my poems about an ex racing hound - just to highlight the problems they have when their racing career is over. I might put it up for you. Last Christmas on another thread we had a Pantomime featuring all our cats and dogs and horses, rabbits and hamsters...in song and verse. It was called Fur Babies in the Woods. It was a bit of fun. The Greyhound got the girl!
Just the 1 dog just now, all our previous dogs have been ex-racing Greyhounds, we fell in love with them years ago.
Big, gentle things that they are.
The 1st Grey we got was 10 years old & was stuck in a shelter for a good length of time, the shelter put an article in a newspaper trying to get him a home, we saw the ad and went and got him
Although our 1st ever dog, many years ago was a Rottweiler who's owner couldn't keep him any longer.
