Pig's ears, kongs, toys, and other stuff

Sil loves pig's ears, kongs, toys, cats, kids, people, small dogs, food, going outside, writing poetry, working on cures for diseases, scritches, hugs, her bed, her foster brothers, her foster parents, making it to the top of the stairs, the thought of her forever home.

All you have to do is love one thing, her.

Putting on My Shoes

When I put on my shoes in the morning I sometimes sit on the floor in the bedroom. Our boys Kane and Dewey usually see this as an invitation to come over and lean against me in some fashion. This morning as I sat on the floor and put my shoes on Sil came over and buried her head in my chest. I gave her a long hug while Dewey stood behind me and rested his head on my shoulder.

If you don't have a greyhound, please ask yourself why.

Catching Up

Sil has fallen into the routine of our house. Slippery floors are fading in the rearview mirror, and each day she gets better with the stairs. There is just one thing missing, her forever home. Sil deserves someone who will dote upon her and treat her like a princess. She is SUCH a sweet girl and right now someone out there is missing out on a wonderful greyhound. She has done perfectly with kids, small dogs, and cats. I know that she is going to miss our home and her foster brothers, but I am sure a very special home is waiting for her. If you are ready to love a beatiful black greyhound with all your heart then look at Sil. She deserves it. Do you deserve her?

Great Progress

Sil has made great progress on the stairs the past couple of days. I came in the basement with her and let her off her leash. I was busy filling up the cat's food dish and I noticed she was not near me. She was already at the top of the stairs waiting to get into the house. I was very proud.

Back from the Meet & Greet

We had a wonderful day at the Woodstock PetsMart for our monthly meet & greet. Kane and Dewey told everyone they met about their wonderul foster sister at home. Dewey has started to keep a picture of Sil in his wallet, and he showed it to every one who stopped to pet him.

As soon as we got home Kane and Dewey told Sil all about the meet & greet. She can't wait to go as an adopted greyhound and wow the public with her personality and sweetness. She must have thought about it alot while we were gone, because when I got home I found this poem in her kennel.

Dewey and Kane have left the house and here I sit quiet as a mouse. I think they have gone just down the street to be part of this thing called a meet & greet. I have to tell you it’s just not fair, I would meet and greet if I were there! I would give kisses and lots of hugs, heck I’d even give out free back rubs! I’d be so loving and so polite, it’s not in my nature to go pick a fight. People would come from all around to meet & greet the sweetest greyhound. But I must be patient here all alone, until that day I find my forever home. Then maybe my owners, knowing I am just so sweet, will take me to my own meet & greet. I would be the shining star. Oops, I have to go I hear a car…

Meet Sil's Foster brothers

Sil lives with two foster brothers, Kane and Dewey. Kane and Dewey will be at the Woodstock PetsMart today between 2 and 4 for their monthly Meet & Greet. Sil cannot make it. SEGA's policy is to not bring foster dogs to the meet & greets. However, this is your chance to meet 2 wonderful greyhounds in person, ask all the questions you want, and perhaps put an adoption application in on a really sweet black greyhound named Sil.

King Kong

Sil has discovered the pleasures of the kong and all the tasty stuffings that fill it. She is also starting to fish around in the toy chest for toys to play with. She is sweet, sweet, sweet. She has the sweetest eyes and is very patient when you give her love. She is a loving girl who will make a lucky person very happy. Is that lucky someone you?
