I went to the Humane Soc looking for a small dog, but when I went into the big dog area, the most beautiful greyhound (which I had never seen before) looked up at me with these liquid brown eyes, and I was hooked. She was so regal and such a beauty, she laid down in front of the cage and twisted her head around to just stare at me with these beautiful eyes. I said"Oh don't look at me like that - you're to big!!!!" But the more she stared at me the more I thought "How can I say no?" and when I found out she was rescued from the Hardin County Coondog Trials, I knew it was destiny, b/c that was where I grew up. Everyone told me "Your house is too small," or "Are you sure about this?" And I said "Yes, this is what I want to try."
And she has followed me at my heels from day one, when I went to pick her up, the girl at the H.S said " She drug me all the way up the hallway, I think she knows she is going home." And she has been loved and spoiled ever since.
