we adopted an ex-racing greyhound

V I D E O
Hiya! Welcome to my wee channel. In this video, I tell you all about adopting our new greyhound, Lenny. I hope you enjoy this video! It was quite a fun one to make. Back to Animal Crossing soon, I promise!

Please note that I am by no means a videographer. I'm a uni student with an iPhone is all, and so the filming for this video is quite low-quality. Also, I am not an animal behaviorist; I am simply sharing my experiences with you.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions!

Cheers,

Billie

Hiya, everyone!

Just a wee update - I really want to make a video about how Lenny has been over the past couple of years. I'll have some time off after I sit my veterinary boards exam in April. He's currently doing well but had a long stay in hospital due developing a septic joint. He's still a bright, happy, hungry boy and he never fails to make us laugh every day.

I hope to see you soon,

Billie

the little look on his face when he managed to fit inside the basket 🥺 he was like can fits”

I can tell you a big part of the reason he made quick progress... he's found a family who sees the best in him and is giving him the love he deserves. None of this happens by accident. I hope they are both doing well!

Greyhounds are so cool. They are so laid back. They enjoy being with their human.

i don't think ppl realize how now you're more confident with showing your face. i'm really proud of you and i'm proud because you have a big heart and you decided to adopt this dog! good luck 💖

I watched a greyhound video a couple of weeks ago and now these are popping up in my feed. They seem like a great breed. I would consider taking one in, but I already have two adopted dogs. That's the most I can provide for. Great job for adopting Lenny. He's very sweet and it's clear you will give him a great home.

My wife and I have adopted ex racer Greyhounds for almost 20 years and was lucky enough to adopt a whoops puppy, racing pupps are very expensive. Racers know nothing but the runs they live in, dirt for floors and a few handlers that work them. They almost universally love affection though if you go to the farms. Grey's zooming are a great experience in your living room, just pull your legs up to save the tailwhips. They love to talk and howl with reason. Always gravitate to the couch, neat to hear Lenny felt comfortable on yours the second night. They can play rough with the other dogs, they are so fast, you just have to control it when necessary. Lenny is a beautiful white with spots, never have I seen that much white.

I've had 5 greyhounds. I had to teach them all to walk up the stairs. There is no sweeter creature than a greyhound!

My son adopted a retired racehound too. It took her a month or two to be acquainted with humans. Lian likes people, places, and getting petted. Lian loves attention. Good luck.

I have owned greyhounds, they are the easiest dogs to look after, very affectionate. They sleep a lot, big couch potatoes! Wonderful dogs, never regretted it, loved every minute that I had my boys. Don’t hesitate if you are thinking about it❤❤❤

Rescue dogs are awesome and thank you for being such an awesome dog mom.

[milgrammikoto]

Oh my, your boy looks just like our dog. He sadly passed away at the age of 13 just a couple of weeks ago and seeing this video almost made me cry. I miss him so so much. Cherish every moment you get to spend with him. I’d give anything to have my boy back with me.

I love that u took in dogs that weren’t necessarily “loved” by there owners anymore and u can see that he loves u guys and is learning his way!

We had one Gray Hound that lived to be 15. Our favorite dog.

Rescue greyhounds are just the most wonderful! We saved our Molly girl back in December and it’s been so rewarding watching her grow and develop her personality. Best of luck to you all in giving Lenny his forever home!

[busybaymax]

If greyhounds are really happy, they chatter they're teeth. It is so cute when they do!

[josdenis]

You’re doing great. We have 4 rescued Spanish greyhounds and they are truly wonderful ❤️

Wow Billie you have all my respect! I too often see people mindlessly get a dog without knowing the first thing about raising one, but you have so much knowledge about how to train a dog WITH issues. It makes me so happy that Finch and Lenny now have a happy, loving and caring home with you and Jack! Give them some cuddles from me :)

Nothing like the love of a greyhound to help cure depression x they just love love and love some more
