O Girl: 2/18


Hi my name is 'O Girl' but you can call me 'Girl' for short.

Hi I am 'O Giril'
I had the most amazing 24 hours, so very different from the last 3.5 years of my life.  First I took a long ride from Alabama to Maryland with a couple of my gal and guy buddies.  After that ride I met a bunch of folks called volunteers who took us for walks and let us stretch our legs.  Then we hopped into a couple of vehicles and took another ride to a place called Greyhound Central.  That was a fun car ride as I got to look at all the sights from the window.   Then oh my gosh, I got some water and yummy food, a short rest, and then on to the best part,  a SPA treatment just for greyhounds.  They gave me a warm bath complete with a massage. That was just the best, I could have stayed in there forever !!!  That massage gal had some magic fingers, I tell ya.   I had a nice rub down, got my ears cleaned,   my nails done, and something called a microchip.   After all that I was introduced to my foster mom and one of her teen boys.  They put a snuggly coat on me,  took me for a walk and then I jumped into the car and off we went.   I was a trooper and stayed a wake a bit to watch the sights but then I was so sleepy from the day's excitement I took a quick snooze.   They stopped for  the teen to get a Chicken sandwhich from something called a drive-through.  Wow did that sandwhich smell yummy, but alas apparently no sharing that sandwhich with me as I am on a speical diet that is good for my tummy the first couple days of my retirement.  These volunteer folks sure are good at taking care of greyhounds though I would have really liked some of that sandwhich. Then I arrived at my foster home and met my foster brothers Reese and Kipper.  They sort of look like me since they have spots like I do but there's are brown and mine are black.  I think its going to be super fun here.  Will update you later lots to smell and see.
