Jimmy came into our house a little over a week ago as a foster dog. When we first met him he was full of beans and very unsettled but it soon showed that he was just a bit upset about being out of his familiar surroundings of his previous home.
What we soon discovered after a few days was the he was a big hearted dog who would do anything to make his people happy.
We had a lot of walks in the 8 days he was with us, and he was just starting to walk loosely and relaxed on the lead. He was a lot of fun and enjoyed running around with the toy bunny. He also started to enjoy a hug and was starting to embrace the inner couch potato that we know is on the inside of every greyhound and was getting the hang of this strange up bed that he was given to sleep on. He loved children and socialized well with other little dogs.
I have no doubt that he would have passed his green collar test with flying colours, he had all the attributes of a greyt pet and companion dog.
Unfortunately there were some complications while at the vet and they weren't able to save him. Some things are tragedies, this is one of them.
Jimmy you were a greyt dog, even though you were with us for only 8 days you bought something into our lives and made an impression upon us, we will always remember you.
