Eyes of a Hero 4/26/18

Hello, I'm new around here and my name is Eyes of a Hero. Or just Hero for short.

I just got here from the race track earlier this week. It's a whole different world but my foster mom says that I'm not only a hero, but I'm a champ for how well I've been taking it all in. The first few days I just wanted to look at everything and stick my nose in everything to investigate. Foster dad says I am canine Velcro. Wherever he goes around the house, I am right at his heels to make sure that I don't miss anything.


Foster mom gets up pretty early so she took a picture of me in my crate. I've been sleeping there for now. I'd rather be with people, but I don't mind it because I know that the minute someone is up, they will let me out. We've gone on a few morning walks. Foster mom says that I'm learning pretty quickly to walk nicely on leash. The first day I kept bumping into her because I couldn't get enough of looking at everything around me. But I'm starting to keep pace with my foster sisters.
Well, I just wanted to introduce myself for now. I'll keep you posted on my retirement. Time for bed now.
