Big Day!

Today was Lisa's day.  She and Silly both were adopted by the same family.  We'll miss you sweet girl, but we are so happy for you.  Many congratulations to all! 

Sweet Lisa

Lisa came to our house last Saturday and has had a seamless transition. Everything that has been said below by her former foster home is true. She is a hound that definitely already knows all about home life and is ready for one to call her own.  This sweet girl is going to make a wonderful addition to the lucky family who adopts her. 

She was glad for the break in the weather today. She enjoyed lying in the sun with her foster sister. Lisa really enjoys the company of other dogs and will seek them out to be close to them. 

And here she is ignoring my wild boy's antics.  He can usually get her to play some, but she was enjoying the breeze and sunshine too much today. 

Update on Lisa

Lisa is back with us after spending a week with another foster family in Nashville. Lisa has made a huge stride towards crating and I am so proud of her. Yesterday she went in her crate on her own when it was time and waited patiently for her cookies and peanut butter Kong. This morning she did the same with just a little positive encouragement. Yeah, Lisa! She is now crating for 4-5 hour stretches with no problems. We have a blanket in the crate with her and she hasn't chewed on it at all so no muzzle, either. This little girl is adorable, and deserves a home to call her own. I'll post updated pictures soon so stay tuned.

The Life of Lisa

Happy Wednesday! We're halfway to the weekend and you know what that means....another chance to find my forever family! In the mean time I am having fun at my foster parent's house with my foster sisters. If you haven't noticed it has been H-O-T hot and I do not like the heat. My foster mom finally lured me and my foster sisters out for a quick jaunt in the yard. You can tell that the pesky little dog wanted to play, but I wasn't very interested. She had too much energy. Give me a rope or squeaky in the air conditioning any time.


I love the company of other dogs, especially greyhounds. I'm ready for cooler weather so I can race them around the yard. I wasn't much of a racer on the track, but I know I can out run them around the yard. I'm still young so I still have a little of the playful puppy in me...just enough to be cute.


Did I mention that i love being loved on. Oooooh that feels good!


I haven't had any accidents and I walk very well on the leash. I have very good manners (I was caught counter surfing once but foster dad just left those peanut butter crackers just sitting there! I mean what's a smart girl to do!?). I really don't like the crate very much, but I sleep all night in my foster parents bedroom without a peep. I'm definitely a teenager....I would sleep all morning if you let me. My foster mom also thinks I have the cutest ears. I'm looking for the perfect forever family. Can I please come home to you?

Hi, Kong thief Lisa here. I was busted. There were 5 loose Kongs and I managed to get 3 before I was caught. I am such a good hunter! Tomorrow I'm going on a home visit. Maybe I will steal some hearts and find my new forever home...wish me luck.

Hi, All, Lisa here with an update. As you can see, I am very comfortable and laid-back in my foster home (I am the white/spotted "parti" girl laid out on the floor). We are all relaxing in the tv room; our relaxation spots stretch throughout the house. I continue to be such a good girl, getting that "crate thing" worked out and otherwise a wonderful house guest. And I will be a wonderful dog for that special family. Could you be the ones? Off to relaxing in the front room now...

Hi, All, Lisa here with an update. I've now been in my foster home for a week and a half. I am really starting to relax and have fun. Still eating well, enjoying the other pets, no accidents, and I am getting the hang of the crating routine. I can now be left in without a muzzle, thanks to my peanut butter kong and a nice chewing toy.

Today we had another big day. First, we went to a baby shower at foster Mom's work. There are 3 pregnant women there! (Mom said don't drink the water, whatever that means). After we visited there for a while we went to this special place called "Adams Place" where Hey Babie and I made some new and wonderful friends! Here we are with some of them, I'm on the left and Hey Babie is on the right. These nice, new friends gave us Cheerios for snacks and we were so gentle taking them from their hands. One nice lady even had a few herself, and we all had a nice laugh together. Now we are home and taking a nap; being social wears me out! But I had fun and was told I am a "very good girl". I'll check in again soon!
