Three hundred and fifty pairs of pleading eyes at Scooby Medina… so how did we choose which lucky hounds would be coming to the USA in early November?
Some have been at Scooby longer than others. Some due to the perception that a large dog needs a large home and large yard (however, we know that sighthounds are fine in smaller homes and have an uncanny knack of curling into little balls). Then there’s the Black Dog Syndrome; potential adopters tend to overlook black dogs for reasons that confound us.
All of the dogs reserved by GRIN have backstories and deserve better. There’s Karina, who was starved and neglected by her former owner. One choice was pure kismet: adorable, pleading, older galga, Gloria, peeped behind Karina in a photo and caught the eye and heart of a family.
All the dogs were selected for their potential to transition into a home and play nicely with others. So saying, we wish we could have reserved all of Scooby’s dogs for a home in the States.
