Coach Ursala - 9/15 - Skills

Excellent roaching, am I right?
Hi all:
I'm Coach Ursala and I am still in search of my furever family. Yesterday I shared some of what I am looking for, so I thought today I would share a few of my skills:
Two dogs seatbelted and muzzled in the back of a small car
Mr. G takes up a lot of space,
but I still ride nicely.
  1. Roaching. I am excellent at roaching. Mr. G has been retired since April and hasn't quite the hang of it, but I am already an expert. I can roach anywhere; even sometimes in my crate when I am really just hoping to get another walk.
  2. Riding in the car. I know I have said this before, but Mr. G is a space hog. Anyway, space hog or no, I ride in the car just fine. Sometimes I sit (on my own, not on command) and other times I lie down, but I never cause any trouble or commotion.
  3. Shopping. I am an excellent shopping companion. Is there somewhere you need to go? I will go with you! I like to help you pick out the best things for greyhounds and also meet all the people.

I have a lot more skills than this, but I hope I have convinced you that I am definitely worth getting to know. Talk to you soon!

Bye for now!
Ursala
