HAPPY HOUNDS, HAPPY HOME

This momma just wants to brag on her boy, Merlin! Most greyhounds come to GALT all ready to retire, but my curious Merlin is always ready to work for his treats! He recently passed his Canine Good Citizen test, and one week later he received his Community Canine Good Citizen award. He is currently scheduled to test for the Karing K9s Therapy Dog program here in Tulsa, and we hope to start our hospital and nursing home visits before the end of the year. Merlin likes to celebrate all his accomplishments with his stuffies, so you can believe that he collects a lot of them, since he is such a successful boy!
