Hi,
I would like to introduce our Retired Racing Greyhound, Maddie. Maddie is four
years old and lives in West Milford, NJ with her brother Bucky, a black and
white tuxedo cat.
What makes Maddie special is that for the first four years of her life she ran
94 races on racetracks in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. After she hurt her
leg while racing, she was rescued by the Greyhound Friends of NJ where we
adopted her from.
In the six months that she has lived with us, she taught us to stop and smell
the flowers. Everything is new to her and we now see things for the first time
through her eyes. Greyhounds really know how to enjoy retirement. When she is
not playing with her "stuffies," you can find her being a 45mph couch potato.
I hope you like her two pictures. One is Maddie doing what retired racers do
best, sleeping. The other is Maddie in her PJs - greyhounds do not have a very
heavy coat, so she likes to stay warm this way.
