most of all he seems to love his naps after racing around the yard or coming in from walking!

Rory looks so happy and seems to be really enjoying the side-by-side expeditions with your little Scotty. Of course he is loving the post-walk crash on the couch too!! Enjoy all the new and exciting adventures!!

Thanks all...Rory loves the yard! He can open up and really run. Kenzie the Scottie is not so keen on him barreling down on her when he is flat out. She rolls well, but spends the tumble across the lawn yipping. but this morning in true terrier fashion she told him to back off and he listened. He wants to play rough and tumble like she was another greyhound. I am sure he will learn, and the Scottie is ok, and learning to stick to mom's side when Rory is in high speed mode.

An update on Rory! he has now had 4 full days at home and is adjusting well. He is on the start of day #5 and so far so good. He loves his early morning walks in the neighbourhood, and the evening walk after dinner. He saw the cat last night who has been in hiding since he arrived. She is very out of sorts over him, but last night while he was sleeping, she came upstairs from the basement family room where she has been camped out and sat with my husband, the cat was very skittish about the giant dog sleep on a pillow at the far end of the living room, but Rory woke up and looked over at my husband and the cat and went back to sleep. He eventually got up and made a wide birth of the sofa they were on, checking out the new fuzz ball in the living room. The cat had had enough though and peeled off back down stairs, with Rory keenly interested, but none reactive and after a minute of watching the stairs, Rory went back to bed. So I think it is a good start.

Thanks for updating us all. He looks like he is having a ball, and the intro with the cat sounds like it went well. my experience is the slower the better when it comes to cats. The more he sees the cat just hanging around the more he will get used to him. I love the pics they are great and both your guys looks so happy.

Rory is so handsome, I love his fawn coloring along with the black eyebrows. He certainly has adjusted well to his Forever Home ... I love how Kenzie has become his little buddy. Looking forward to more updates and photos as Rory's journey continues .....

Rory is gorgeous! Congratulations! Kenzie is a real cutie as well (the plaid collar is so perfect on her!) and I am sure they are already becoming fast friends. Your kitty should get used to things relatively quickly, especially as Rory is showing little interest.
