Honey
My name is Honey. Nine years ago the Greyhound Foundation found me the most wonderful home with a new Greyhound sister named Sheba. We lived together for nine years and then I don't know what happened, but suddenly I began to lose sight in my right eye and it hurts all the time. And then one day, I couldn't see anything. I had gone Blind in one eye. One day my daddy decided he couldn't keep me any more. His new wife to be didn't like me so he turned me back in to the Foundation. I guess some people just don't want an old dog and one that's going blind. But it really hurt, let me tell you. I was so scared and lonely and sick. I missed my sister Sheba, and my Daddy and my home. Grannie Bev runs the Foundation and she always wants us. I remembered her from a long time ago. She rescued me when I was very young and found me a home. I smiled and smiled and smiled. After lots of hugs and kisses, she found me a new foster home with Les and Keith and a new senior Sister Emme. I'm doing my best to be a good girl so they'll keep me and make it my Forever Home. Les and Keith are so good to me and I love Emme. She's just my age and we get along great. We have such fun together playing although I bump into the furniture - it just keeps getting in my way, but if they don't move it, I learn pretty quick where it is, then I don't hit things. They took me to the Hospital and I heard the Doctor tell Grannie Bev it was something called Glaucoma and was probably caused by some kind of trauma to the eye and this condition isn't normal in Greyhounds. I won't go into all the things that happened to me in my last home. They put some kind of drops in my eyes a couple of times a day, and the pain isn't as bad as it was. My blind eye is going to be replaced with a pretty new blue one. I still won't be able to see but the pain will be gone. Thank you Lord. I heard them talking about how much it will cost, over $700, but Grannie Bev said she'd just depend on God and he'd supply our needs. So if you think you'd like to be His channel to help me, I know you'll be blessed the same as I will. After the Holidays I'll be operated on and I'll have a beautiful new, blue eye. Won't I be pretty? So if you'd like to help me, please donate to the National Greyhound Foundation, and Grannie Bev said blessings will be showered on you. I'll be forever grateful and write you letters and send you pictures of me with my new eye and let you see how I'm doing. Happy Holidays Honey Click here to return to |
