Jazz (formerly Jessie) was adopted by Jess and Andrei in April 2021. In a tough and unpredictable year, Jazz wriggled her way into their hearts and brightened up their lives.
“Jazz is full of personality and such a people person. She loves visitors and coming along on adventures big and small with us,” says Jess.
“Believe it or not, we have discovered that Jazz looovvveeesss to go swimming! You can imagine everyone’s surprise when she jumps in the water at the beach or on walks.
“She’s the guaranteed joy in our every day. She wakes us up every morning by ‘singing’ to us to which I sing back. She then comes and gives me a kiss and then jumps around to my partner and gives him a kiss.”
Like some rescued greyhounds, Jazz struggled to be around other dogs when she was first adopted.
“This made us nervous at first, but with a bit of effort and lots of patience, shes now hanging out cool as a cucumber with my brother’ kelpie-cross Bonnie.
“We’re working up to little dogs, but this has been such a gratifying journey already.
Jess says adopting a greyhound is the most rewarding thing in the world.
“Every grey is different and will need a different approach, but you’re guaranteed a character, a talking point and a magnificent creature who will give you lots of love.
“Thanks Greyhound Rescue!”
