🐾 Happy National Greyhound Day 🐾
Today is National Greyhound Day, a day dedicated to celebrating the incredibly gentle, elegant and soulful dogs that touch our lives so deeply.
To mark the day, I am sharing some very special pictures of my own beautiful greyhound who is always in my thoughts - the lovely Della, who has since crossed the rainbow bridge. 🌈
Anyone who has ever shared their home with a greyhound knows that they are the ultimate "45-mph couch potatoes."
Behind their incredible athletic grace is a breed that is famously gentle, quiet and completely devoted to their humans. Watching rescued racing hounds transform into pampered family members, discovering the joy of a soft duvet and a forever home, is one of the most rewarding things we get to witness. 🥰🥰
Della perfectly captured that quiet dignity and sweetness that makes greyhounds so unforgettable.
Do you have a greyhound sharing your sofa (or your bed!) today? Or perhaps a beloved hound waiting for you at the rainbow bridge? 🛋️❤️
