Ty the greyhound, Part II. This photo should answer the question, "How is Ty doing?" (See yesterday's post for the back story.)
The first hopeful sign, according to Judith, was when he seemed to realize that she is his human.
He now responds to voices and faces. He is sweet, gentle, and loves attention. Oh, and he can still run like the wind.
Unfortunately he can't be allowed to run free on the prairie, as he could easily chase down any rabbit or hare, and after years of racing in futile pursuit of those mechanical rabbits on greyhound tracks in Australia, he would be thrilled to finally catch one.
His running, therefore, is limited to a fenced enclosure. It's pretty cool to see.
The best part, though - as if it weren't obvious from the photo - is that he gets to be unconditionally loved every day for the rest of his life.
