Blix is doing GREYT!

Blix wanted me to post to let everyone know he is still searching for a forever family.  He is doing so well in his foster home.  He is a happy, playful hound.  He almost seems more like a 2-year-old than a 5-year-old.  He loves the sunshine and enjoyed a nice walk around the neighborhood today.  Blix is SO handsome and his coat just shines!  He always gets lots of attention from everyone we see.  Cars slow down, or even stop, to check out this boy:-).

Blix won't be meeting and greeting this coming weekend, but he will be making an appearance at the Hermitage Petsmart the following weekend, unless he is adopted before then.

Thanks for reading about Blix.  Check back for more updates soon!

Update on the Handsome Sweet Blix

Blix has been with us for almost three weeks and is acclimating to home life GREYT!  He is such a HAPPY boy!  He is eating well, does fine on solid-surface flooring, and gets along great with the resident hounds and my 5-year-old daughter.  He has pretty much mastered the stairs, but sometimes he gets excited and goes down too fast, so we have a baby gate there now so we can watch him and make sure he doesn't take any spills going down.  I do think he'll have that figured out soon.  He has not had a single accident in the house, but I do keep a close eye on him and for now I'm crating him when I'm too busy to supervise.  He is very affectionate and has a fun playful side to him.  He LOVES playing with stuffies and will often try to get my hounds to play along with him.  He is a little hesitant to go in his crate, but he will always willingly go in if you bribe him with a treat.  He LOVES car rides and getting out and about.  He is a really good meet and greeter; although, after an hour or two he seems a little overwhelmed and will stick close to my side and try to bury his head in my lap. 

He had a really good time at Meet and Greet today.  He met too many small dogs to count and after a sniff never even looked at them twice.  I'm going to get him out to meet some cats soon too see how he does with that.

This adorable little girl has been coming to a lot of Meet and Greets with her mom and they are hoping to maybe adopt a greyhound someday.  I think she was his favorite person of the day.  She is wonderful with the hounds and he loved her gentle attention.  

Blix would like to thank everyone who came out to Hermitage today to see him.  He will be at the Meet and Greet at 100 Oaks this coming Saturday, March 19, and would love to see you there! 

Blix Loves Stuffies...

But I think he likes to ham it up for the camera even more!  Every time I try to get a video of him playing, he runs up and starts smiling!
