Nice: 4/21 - Nice and Easy

Tomorrow maybe my lucky day!  I am hoping to meet my forever family and get snuggles and loves from them. Fo-ma and Fo-dad trimmed my nails today and gave me a brush to get ready to meet everyone.
They want you all to know how sweet I am.  I am an expert on stairs,  I know where I am supposed to lay at night and I don't pace.  In the morning I have a great routine of going right outside to do my business first, eat then out again.   I don't beg at the table, but I've tried to get on the couch.   I will if you let me. 
I walk well on the leash and I don't get afraid of other dogs but I am a little shy.  I was when I first came to my foster home, but I am more relaxed now and I will be with you too.  I am crated during the day while my foster parents work.   I am good around kids and small dogs. My Foster family have a little white dog called a bischon called Ernie.  He's old and blind and sometimes walks into things,  including other dogs sleeping on the floor.  I ignore him mostly, because he can't see me anyway. 
I would love to meet you and get some pets and snuggles.
Love, Nice

Nice: 4/19 - Nice, Nice baby

Hi, its Nice!
I wanted to send some extra cute pictures of me before the big adoption day this Saturday.   I am very excited to meet my future family.  I've been a good girl and learning as much as I can with my foster family.  Won't you come meet me?  I'm guaranteed to steal your heart.
Love,
Nice

Nice - 4/15/17 - Snuggle bug

Today I'm visiting my Fo-great aunt Gayle in Virginia Beach.  I was great on the trip down and laid in back of the SUV quietly. She has a small dog too and I am not interested as you see in the picture.

She does have lots of bunnies in her back yard and that's exciting.   I have already chased a couple out of her backyard.  Oh what fun.  It is Easter, after all.

I hope I meet my forever family soon!

Love, Nice

Nice: 4/13 - My Greyt Week

Hi, it's Nice,
I have had a great week at my foster home.  I am a very good house guest.   During the week, I go into my crate easily with a treat. I am used to being without my foster family during the work week. I'm an expert at the stairs and sleep well through the night.
I am also becoming more relaxed with my foster family. I would say that I have lots to offer my future family.  If you want a super sweet, playful girl then I'm the one for you.♥️♥️
Happy Easter,
Nice

Nice: 4/10 - Look at me, I'm pretty

Hi there,
I had s great weekend playing outside and hanging out.  My Foster mom was "spring cleaning" around the house.   I followed her around everywhere so I could learn something new about retired life.  I was confused about the long stick thing that captured dust.  I steered clear of that thing.
My Foster brother and sister didn't seem concerned with it so they must have seen this thing before.  I will tell you I love the outdoors. You have already seen me lazing outside on the deck. I love chilling indoors too!  I love snuggling with my Foster brother and sister.   Just check out this pic.
Talk to you all soon!
Love, Nice

Nice: 4/8/17 - Chilling with my Fo-sis

Ahh, it's a beautiful day outside and I have learned there isn't anything much better than just chilling on the deck in the sun with my Fo-sis Candy.  She's kind of taken me under her wing and shown me what being a retired greyhound means.
I love to get scratches, especially when my Fo-sis is getting them too!  I am really loving having a Fo-sis!
I get along with all the humans and animals, even the small one Ernie (The family Bischon). 
I'll report back later with more updates later this week.
Love, Nice

Nice: 4/5 - It's Nice in the sun

Here I am soaking up the sun.  I'm playful and shy, but I am working my way out of my shell. In no time I will be an expert retiree.
I went on a walk today. I was with my foster brother and sister and did very well.  I am working on the stairs and I still need a little help getting up them but I am confident on the way down.
I will check in again to let you know how I'm doing on retired life.
Love, Nice

Nice: 4/2 - Hi, I'm Nice!

Hi there,
This is my first weekend in a home out of the racetrack. Let me tell you a put myself.  I am a little shy right now because this is a whole new world to me. I don't know what any of this stuff is I side this thing the humans call a house.  You may laugh, but I already walked into the sliding glass door! 藍
My foster mom and dad reassure me that I will get the hang of this "retirement" thing.  I love being outside.  Here's a picture of me warming myself in the sun.
Talk to soon!
