I was lucky enough to take darling Anna out yesterday and what a sweetie she is. Anna I don’t think has had much kindness from humans to date as she is a very timid girl but with the help of my trusted sausages we were soon harnessed up on on our way. Anna is such a good girl on lead and walks to heal just cautiously taking in the big scary world. She is quickly learning though that there is no need to be afraid and when she is a little nervous she checks back in with you and gladly accepts reassurance that she is ok. After a lovely stroll where anna was just the perfect walking partner we returned to her kennel where she just melted my heart and leant in for a little cuddle. 😍😍
Just look how pretty this adorable girl is

I’ve realised I’ve a whole lot of pics and a couple of videos from Anna’s stay with me 2 weekends ago that I’ve not posted yet, so here they come ...




This last video was typical of how I would help her bravely come indoors, she’s very submissive as you go to pop her lead on but then takes confidence at being led and connected to you, she did manage the french doors into my conservatory by herself a few times, utter sweetheart xxx

And now plenty of pics of Anna enjoying the sunshine a couple of weeks ago in my garden, she’d relaxed a little and it was so endearing, she’s a beauty and so sooooo gentle and so graceful and majestic in true greyhound style xxx love4.gif

I was sooo delighted when Anna let me get close to her and she leant against my leg, it’s the little things and they mean sooooo much, well done Anna, onwards and upwards my beauty xxx

I was mowing the lawn and Anna didn’t seem to mind the mower at all, not what I was expecting, I was very careful as I thought it may scare her - she kept her distance but didn’t look distressed and sunbathed at the opposite end of the garden to me !

I am loving walking this sweet, gentle girl. Every time I see her she has gained more confidence and now comes straight up to me in her kennel. She is starting to relaxing more on our walks too and is ok with regular traffic although still jumps and the really big and noisy hgv’s. Anna is just the gentlest soul and loves nothing more than gentle walk and a reassuring stroke she is great with other dogs and I think she would love a friend.

Anna is such a pretty little thing and with some more time in a home she will hopefully develop more of the gorgeous sheen of the black greyhound. Slight and quite small for a greyhound but strong and fit too as she hasn't long retired.

Anna is settling into our household nicely and really enjoys the company of other dogs. Here she is with our lurcher boy on squirrel patrol on her morning walk. She is continuing to learn about living in a house after her earlier stay in foster recently. As there she is clean in the house and so far shows no tendency to chew. Anna is inquisitive and although she is still nervous of people she is happy to see everyone in the household again and greeted all with a waggy tail this morning. She took to stairs quite easily as she was keen to join her friends upstairs.

And here with our much larger greyhound girl.
