Last month , we lost our lovely greyhound to heart failure . We’d expected it for the last 8 months , so whilst not exactly a shock , we were and are still devastated . However our boy hound was distraught . He’s never been alone , and he just doesn’t know what to do himself, crying and being a shadow of himself . We went to our RGT and several others to try and find a cat friendly hound ( having been adopted by an abandoned cat who’s moved himself in ) but to no avail . And then last week , our neighbour told us his sister was rehoming her dog , who had lived with cats and kids but needed more room and exercise than she could give. I agree to a visit to see her .
On Friday afternoon she arrives for her visit . She hasn’t left yet , and it looks very much like she’s now one of the family ....
I’ve done as much research as I can , asked my vet for advice , as we’ve always been hound owners rather than anything else , and so far, so good . But is there anything I need to know , other than the lots and lots of exercise ?
