BlutooHeartAttack: 6/26/19 Hi, I'm Heart!

Hello greyhound fans, I'm Heart! My foster family said "Heart" is an appropriate name for me because I must have a really big heart- I'm such a lover! I love everybody! (Okay, maybe not cats, but everybody else!) I like to greet everyone I see with tail wags and even a kiss if they let me. I am a confident boy looking for a family of my own to love with my whole heart. (see what I did there? wink wink!) I am not shy at all and have been happily making myself right at home with my foster family from day one. (Really, day one. This picture of me roaching was taken the very evening I arrived here!)


There's a mom and dad, a teenage two-legger, and three other hounds here and I enjoy all of them. The girl hound is older so I am very respectful and gentle around her. The dad and teenager like to play though so I know I can always count on them for a game of toy tug.


Mom seems to stay busy a lot but I just watch and stay close to keep her company. I am always ready to give her some love when she takes a break.

Are you looking for a loving hound to fill your heart with happiness? Am I your guy? I hope we can meet soon! Love, Heart!
