Joe: 10/29 - Day 1 of retirement

Hi everyone, 
I'm Joe and I'm newly retired. I'm from West Virginia and I'm a handsome boy.  So much has changed for me in the last few days.  I'm in a totally new environment.  Everytime I go outside I discover something else I have never seen.  I'm curious, my foster mom says. I like to look out the front window a lot. 
I like my new surroundings.  They have two other greyhounds and a little white dog that I completely ignore living here.  There's plenty of comfy places to lay down and so much to explore.
I've already been on a walk and I was so good.  I didn't pull or weave around.  I really liked it.  I'm good at their stairs in the deck but in the house they are a bit intimidating.  I'm still working on mastering them. My foster parents told me I will be an expert in no time. 
Well off to bed.  Here I am upstairs, just laying on the floor next to my bed.  I like to try new things 
Love,
Joe
