Update on Lotus Blossom

Lotus, our new adopted greyhound, is like a new dog. She is a happy girl, a real tail wagger. She has integrated into the household very well. Very curious about everything, poking her nose here and there. I also saw her "counter surfing", so we have to work on that. I noticed on our walks that her "prey drive" is pretty high. She would love to go after any small moving animal. Makes sense since I'm sure she was trained to hunt. Those good old boys in the high desert hunt coyotes and rabbits with the greys. I'm sure she will be much happier having "landed" in our household where she will be totally spoiled. Her hunting days are over.

I love greyhounds (one of my fathers relatives had them on his farm) they are so gentle. I was surprised to hear how badly the racing dogs are treated in the UK once they are no longer of use and how people perceive them as aggressive. Glad to hear you have given Lotus Blossom a loving home!
