A truly special member of our family has passed on. Dash was a 13-year-old greyhound who faced many challenges over his lifetime with courage and strength.
He was the second rescued racing greyhound we adopted, some eight years ago. We were told Dash and others in the racing kennel were routinely kicked when they did not perform well. He came to us with an injured shoulder.
But he survived the horrors of racing, where so many others never make it out alive each year. So many never make to it their senior years.
