Yep that's 2 n's not 2 e's. It's a little different but I'm told it suites me. I thought it was time I introduced myself properly and tell you a bit about my journey.
I'm 4 years old and I come from a race track in Alabama. I finished racing in May and I've just been waiting around for whatever was coming next. I didn't know what that was but I'd heard rumors that it was something called retirement. Suddenly 2 weeks ago they called my name and said it was my turn for retirement. I was packed up with 25 other pups and we made a very long trip east. A few of us got off in VA and 3 of us made our way to home to spend the night. It was nice there with the familiar sound of other greyhounds. I got a bath in a real bath tub, got my ears cleaned, nails done and something called a microchip. There was a lot going on but I took it all in stride because I figured it must all be a part of going to retirement!
The next morning when all the hustle and bustle was done, the 3 of us got a chance to just relax with the other pups that lived in the house. I found soft carpet and fell asleep.
After a while my FoMa stopped to drop my friend Glory at her foster home. Seems we aren't too far from each other. Maybe I'll see her again and we can compare notes on retirement.
Then it was back in the car and finally we arrived at my foster home. Turns out I have a foster brother and sister there and they've been really nice. Foma says they'll show me all about how to have good house manors. She said that will make for a really nice retirement. That's what I want.
My foster sister tells me in retirement you get a family of your own with food, toys, soft beds, nice walks and all the petting you can stand. Oh boy I can't wait for my very own family. Follow along as I make the journey to my retirement.
