Our greyhound Mischka
Hello everyone at GAP,
Just writing to thank you for the opportunity to foster and adopt my beautiful greyhound Mischka
(formerly Tanya).
When she arrived to live with us in our first floor apartment, she was very uncertain, extremely
timid and reserved. She wouldn't look at us, slept curled up in the corner and looked very
woebegone! She always had her tail between her legs and was scared of other dogs and people. She
shook like a leaf when walking in the busy main streets.
Every day we've cuddled, kissed and given her support and love. She has been very spoilt! She
has her kibble but it is soaked in beef stock. She eats sardines in oil, salmon and tuna. Her
treats are pigs ears, smackos, kangaroo jerky, chicken necks, pizza (without onion), peanutbutter
sandwiches, oh also cheese now and then.
Because we live in an apartment we take her out on little walks four or five times a day. She
loves her walkies!
She now shyly wags her tail for a couple of seconds before walkies. When setting off, she
"gazelles" or launches off with excitement! We've had her for five weeks, and now she is showing
her gorgeous white fants and is giving us huge doggie smiles and grins. Each week, she comes more
out of her shell. She is slowly blossoming and getting more confident day by day. We really
couldn't love her more!
Our apartment is only small and she is such a good girl. She is totally toilet trained. She
never ever barks. Once she did one woof, and that was when our cheeky cat smacked her on the nose.
She is just so well behaved.
The only naughty thing she has done was chew three of my house and balcony plants... I think she
was just "trimming them" like topirary? (Edward Scissorhands).
To prospective adopters... tell them how rewarding it is to see these gentle, sweet, elegant
dogs blossom when evolving into family pets and loved members of their family.
Yours sincerely,
Rachael, David, Mischka and Minxamena (cat)
