Woody (CBJ Woody): 4/30 - Walkin’ and nappin’


Hi, Woody here! This is me getting ready to go for a hike in the rain. Can you tell that I’m not really too sure about the idea?!


Well the good news is that after a slow start, I had a great time! We got to walk around in the forest and I got my paws muddy. I had to be rinsed off when we got home, but I didn’t mind that at all. 


The best thing though was that I had a really good reason to have naps and to lie around awkwardly! I passed out and had a long sleep while my foster parents watched tv. 


Followed by more naps...



I may not be the bravest greyhound, but I’m learning more and more each day, and I’m gradually getting more confident. I hope I can find a forever family that lets me have quiet long naps, but also encourages me to do scary things like stairs and walks in the forest!
