Nictor, the Dog of the Day
Name: Nictor
Age: Seven years old
Gender: Male Breed: Greyhound
Home: Virginia, USA
 
   This is my rescued Greyhound, Nictor. Our Nictor has been a wonderful addition to our family by just being himself. He knows no tricks, can't 'fetch', doesn't bark, and mostly sleeps! Not very interesting, you say?

    Perhaps not, but Nictor has been a tremendous source of comfort to our family. We have lost our other two dogs to illness within a six-month period of time, and no Nictor finds himself all alone. Just having him around, seeing him in the morning so excited to get his breakfast, and sharing a quiet moment with him by our sides (there are many quiet moments with him!) has eased the pain of losing his sisters.

    Though many other dogs may be more 'exciting,' Nictor possesses a loving, quiet and gentle nature that I've not seen in other dogs. Nictor is a real sweety!
