Hi everyone, sadly we had to have Shadow put down earlier today. She had been fighting cancerous tumours for the last year and a quarter but today we had to do the deed. Anyway she was a great ambassador for retired greyhounds and a fair few hounds have been homed due to her, we will miss her, but now expect she is busy chasing a few heavenly squirrels! :-)

My heart goes out to you - Shadow was a brilliant ambassador and I have many fond memories of seeing her and Blaze looking calm and beautiful on the Greyhoundhomer stand. She fought against the cancer so bravely, but it seemed determined to get her, no matter what you did :-(
Run free at the bridge, Shadow, you'll be forever in our memories...

Oh, I've just realised that she was a Kewell baby - one of our Ty's many half-sisters...

So sorry Katy, she was a lovely girl and I will miss her mugging me for treats at the shows. I daresay Olly will be pleased to see her at Rainbow Bridge and they can have a reminisce about the good times they had at all the shows.

Big hugs to you all, Shadow was great at showing the newbie greyts how to settle at the shows, and how to get treats from us all when you weren`t looking lol. Run free with all your mates that sadly passed before you, they will take greyt care of you now.

Dear Katy, so sorry to read your news about Shadow and I share your sadness. She had a wonderful life with your family and her best pal Blaze and they were a familiar site on the summer circuit. The way she used to laze around, I find it hard to believe her getting up a sweat over mere squirrels.
Take care
Pat S

Katie, Andrew and Emma
We were so sorry to hear about Shadow, poor little lamb.
As others have said, she was such a star at shows, with her and Blaze showing everyone how good and also how beautiful greyhounds are! May you be comforted by the memories.
Run free at Rainbow Bridge, Shadow, you lovely girl.
Sending you all a big hug.
Sue & Tony Xx
