My parents love Greyhounds. They've had two wonderful girls for seven or so years. One is kind of skittish, and never raced. The other was a champion racer. Her name is Princess, short for Princess Leah (I know the spelling is wrong for the Star Wars character, but it's correct for her.) I looked up her stats on the internet after my parents adopted her, and they were impressive.

She broke a leg while racing one day, and was no longer of any use to her owner, and after her leg was pinned back together, she was sent to a greyhound rescue, and my parents got her.

Unfortunately, I just got word that Princess isn't doing very well, and they're afraid that she won't last much longer. I'm concerned about both my parents, and their other greyhound, Cindy. Those two dogs are so used to spending their time together, and Cindy is such a nervous girl, I'm not sure she can make it without her 'sister'.

Dogs are better at passing than people are. At least that's my experience. They don't tell themselves complex stories about what is going on. They don't worry about what might have been. Your folks will need your support and I know that you will do what you can for them.
Your folks did a wonderful things for these dogs. We are all made better by their actions and by your sharing the story with us.

Peace, Love, Grace.

Yep. Mom told me Cindy was real upset before Princess passed away.

I have a decent size backyard, and my girls always loved my parents bringing theirs up here. It's not quite big enough for a greyhound to reach full speed, but my girls could never even begin to keep up with Cindy. Princess was a bit closer to their speed because of her bad leg. I do wonder if they know cause they seem to be a bit down today.

Who knows. Maybe they're just picking up on my feelings.
