i wrote down some stories in my sketchbook whilst i was visitng dogs trust because i forgot to take any writing materials (doh) and my sketchbook was right there in my hand and i didnt want to forget anything!
this story is about Bolt the greyhound. it was about him being lazy and scared of the rain and dark. hes a real cutie. the lady at dogs trust said she was so surprised he was an ex race dog because he is so lazy and never wants to go outside or for a walk (especially if its raining)!!
there are two little stories on this page. one was about a family that was adopting a lurcher named Ebony. i asked them if they got given any background on where she came from and this is what they told me (poor love)
and i also talked to an old lady and her husband as they were looking around and the woman was saying she wanted to adopt a dog that wasn't too lively because she doesn't think she could take care of that. however when i saw them playing with the dog that they had chosen, Patch, he was running around like a mad boy! it was a little bit funny but it also got me thinking about what if they don't realise traits about the dog before adopting them and they are brought back to the centre or they end up not adopting him at all. i should do some research on how many dogs get returned and what are the most common reasons.
