our family consists of me and my oh 3 children 16,13 and 4 and Sasha a very timid lurcher (until she knows you)and Larry who's mum was a lurcher and dad possible staffiei have wanted to adopt a greyhound for about 8 years but never thought it would happen, Larry has issues with other dogs and really does not like them in his space but with the help and guidance from Lisa and other members of Gap it was suggested that Mabel sounded ideal for our family .
We went to meet her with her foster family Karen and Colin ( thankyou)and Anna (Anna-r)and Larry's first reaction was to snap at her i was gutted i thought that's it no way are they going to let us take her home now we all went for a walk and Anna asked if we liked her how could we not she was amazing so beautful and her eyes made you melt ;D .
Anna and her husband David took Mabel back to our home and came in to make sure everyone was ok ,Larry (muzzled) grumbled at her if she went near him but Sasha was fine and Mabel just ignored him .
after just 1 day Larry had his muzzle removed and accepted that she was staying , i couldn't believe it after 8 years of waiting i finally had a greyhound
big thankyou's to Lisa for helping us to find the perfect dog for us and to Anna for her help and support when needed and Alyson, Karen and Colin for being there when Mabel really needed someone
Mabel was given up by a man who races greyhounds, he called Alyson( migirlsuk) knowing that she already had 2 and asked if she could find a home for a 2 1/2 year old bitch as he needed the room that day or she would be pts thank goodness for all the people that helped to save her life she really is an absolute angel and we all love her to bits even Larry
