Gym (Iwannaquitthegym) 2/9/22

 Who's out there looking for a traffic stopping good looking dog?   Well, that's what you'd have in Gym. Today while out on a walk a car actually stopped in the middle of the road and the passenger had to get out to admire Gym.  He took it all in just like it happens all the time and he leaned into her so he could get the best hugs and petting. 

Once home, he had to take a nap because all that attention can be exhausting!


Gym is a beautiful big boy looking for his forever home.  He is currently in foster care learning all the ropes of retirement.  He is still trying to perfect his dog bed skills.  Gym has a fracture repair but he is completely healed and gets around like any other dog.  He LOVES going for a walk and taking in all the sights and sounds.  He does his business outside and is even learning to go to the back door as his signal that he has to potty.  He could use a few pounds but we are working on having him gain some weight slowly, which is the most healthy way.  

Look at his stunning face and beautiful brown eyes.  He is a super model of the greyhound world.
