Pax was our first foster and first foster fail. We picked Pax up from Shenton Park Dog Refuge when they had asked if GAWA had a foster home for a greyhound that wasn’t coping in the kennels. To our surprise he was a greyhound X and had previously been rehomed a couple of times south of Perth.
Pax has been a character ever since he stepped paw in our door. I think he knew this would be his forever home when he first arrived it was just us that needed to catch up on that fact.
It’s taken him some time to fully come out of his shell being in the kennels and with multiple families would probably do that to any dog but he’s been with us 2 years now and I think we have all worked out the right daily routine that suits him and us best.
We recently went on our first holiday to a farm stay and brought Pax with us and we all had the best time. He’s definitely a permanent member of the Barker family and has us all wrapped around his huge paws.
We hope to do a DNA test soon on Paxy to find out what’s in him and look forward to having him around for a long time.
Thank you GAWA for everything you do.
A huge thank you to Liz for sharing your “Success Story” with Greyhound Adoptions WA.
