Doc's Story

MEET DOC!<br/><br/>If Doc (racing name Oshkosh Doc) was a person, we can picture him reading a book, smoking a pipe, and wearing a tweed jacket. This handsome, sensitive, 72-pound boy, who will turn three in July, would probably also speak with an English accent!<br/>While we would not characterize Doc as a spook, he is a bit on the tentative side. People who like loud music, who have boisterous housemates, or who want to venture far and wide with their Greyhound, are not the right fit for Doc.<br/>People who are the right fit would be those with another Greyhound or quiet dog to keep Doc company (he follows the lead of the female Greyhound in his foster home); people with a fenced yard so he could explore the outdoors in a quiet environment; and people who lead a less active and more tranquil life. Doc passed our cat test, so homes with felines should be fine for Doc. <br/>Among his foster mom''s observations about Doc are "He loves to be near and with me. Follows me everywhere. I sleep on the couch so he can be near me and see where I am. He does very well in his crate, goes inside (with a cookie), and is fine when I leave the house. He lays down quietly in the crate, no anxiety." She also said that even in the two weeks that she's had him, he is already more at ease. <br/>People who want a quiet, beautiful, loving companion should consider Doc. He is a delicate flower on the verge of blossoming.
