When I grab the leash to leave, she jumps for joy, several times, high into the air.
Don't understand cat hate. Cats are what they are. Don't hear many stories about kids getting bitten or mauled to death by a cat.
I now have 4 greyhounds. 2 were acquired on purpose, the other 2 were difficult adoptions. I kept them after fostering. A lot of people tell me the same story about greys and dog parks. They don't seem to like them. My big 90 lb. boy stood & cried last time we went. He's fine at dog beach where's there's more space.
Earl was 7 when we took him in. He & the cat came to an agreement in 10 minutes.
