Joey has been in our home as a foster a little over a week. He's been a very good house guest, but he has been a little shy. His previous foster mom said he loved his little duckie, but until tonight, he pretended he didn't like toys. Tonight he's made up for some lost time. While his foster sister was playing with her hedgehog, he bounded around with her, playing defense. Then, he got tired of watching and decided to get his duckie out and show it who's boss! This must be the reason his duckie no longer has a face! Being a fast greyhound, he did not allow the paparazzi to capture this in a photo. So, we'll show how cute Joey is when he's settled in and resting. He does love snuggly sherpa blankets.
Joey also likes to make his voice be heard and will show his excitement by barking for joy when the leashes come out. He is very good on leash walks. When he sees a small creature, he gets excited and pulls a little, but has been totally manageable.
He does not like car rides...yet. He seems to be nervous and would prefer to go back in the house instead of getting into a car. Perhaps a few trips to Petsmart and a meet & greet will change his mind.
Joey is very smart guy. He learned to lie down on command in a day or two. Now we're working on shaking hands.
He plans on being at the Zoo event this Saturday, so maybe you can come out and meet this handsome, sweet boy.
