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

Bale:4/10 ...Road Trip

Bale here,

Waiting to find the perfect furever home, I know it is out there. In the meantime FM said we should work on learning how to jump in and out of the car. I figured, sure I can to that. Saturday we went outside and she brought some yummy treats and threw them in on the floor of the car. Guess what I jumped right in first time. Sure surprised her. I even got treats for jumping out and lots of pets too. We did it four times and I must say I am pretty great at it now. FM sounded super excited, she is silly that way. Since I did so well, FM then said "Road Trip". So we got back in the car had some more treats and drove to a place called "the beach". It was a long drive but once we got there it sure was pretty. Later.

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

Hi, I'm Logan... and I'm one hot dog!

Hello,

I'm Logan, and I'm the official small dog tester for greyhounds for GEGR. I couldn't let that cat Lola get all the attention! (although she really is a very nice kitty)

This was me at Greyhound Central on Saturday.

I don't mind my job, but I'm usually pooped by the time we leave for home.

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!

-Nice
