Comments: Aurora is absolutely darling!!!  She is very affectionate and friendly!  Aurora LOVES belly rubs and loves to be outside and sunbathe!  She has been in a foster home since the beginning of May and is doing wonderfully.  She lives with another greyhound and a smaller dog and does really well with both.  Her foster mom says she loves to cuddle and if you sit on the floor with her, she will rest her head on you somehow.  Aurora loves balls, not to fetch but to squeak!  She has the cutest stretch, and yawns and makes a funny sound when she does.  She is so sweet and wants to please.  Her foster mom has taught her to sit and is working on "paw".  Aurora is eager to please and loves playing with toys.  She walks well on leash (most of the time - on occasion she can be quite strong) and loves her walks.  Aurora does have a high prey drive when she sees something move outside, so she needs someone who can continue her training (she works well with redirection).  There are two other dogs in her foster home, and they like to play fight - Aurora doesn't get involved when they do, but if she does, she likes to slap with her paws and since she is so strong, she could hurt a small dog, but if you tell her to stop, she does!  She has done well on her housebreaking.  She also eats well and is not protective of her food.  Aurora is really good in the car and mostly sleeps.  Her foster mom thinks she will do well with other dogs and/or children as she has poked and prodded and done all the things a greyhound often doesn't like, and Aurora has not reacted at all!  What a sweetie!  Aurora may be ok as an only dog, but she does not like to be crated.  Aurora will need a home without cats and with someone who can manage her strength.   This is one special girl - such a cuddle bug - someone is missing out on this sweetheart!
