The hounds - Brew's story
After Duke died, our home was empty and sad. I knew that the best thing to do was find a new hound in need of a home - something I know Duke would have approved. Christmas was fast approaching and I knew I had to focus and look on, to find a new companion.
Our Christmas was spent in Watford with my best friend and we had planned to meet a hound called Boss Supreme on a G4U walk in Hampshire. However, a week before the walk, the owners of Boss decided they loved him too much and wanted to keep him. I am a true believer that things happen for a reason. Debbie (the G4U Guru) did some thinking and suggested we meet another new dog that had just come up for re-homing, called Cauldron Brew. Straight after our telephone call, I went on the Greyhound Data website (where you can find out everything about all raced Greyhounds including mine) to research his history and guess what I found? Not only was Brew related to Duke, he also shared my birthday! I could not pass up this coincidence and rang Debbie to see if she would reserve him with the condition that he approved and liked us on the walk - and surprise, surprise, he did!
So here we are today - Brew is a lovely Greyhound who is so laid back. He is very cheeky but extremely well behaved and spends most of the time sleeping and grooming himself - he is your typical 45mph couch potato! He enjoys spending time at Granddad’s, whilst I work on the veggie patch and potter about in the greenhouse. We have one happy hound, who has settled in really well to family life and appears to approve of his new home.
