Divina aka Dora


I adopted Dora about four years ago working at a greyhound racing kennel. She is a fawn female and about 8 years old now. I fell in love with her the first day I started working there. There was something about her that just caught my eye. So when she retired I decided I wanted to to take her home but I wasn't sure how my other dog and her would get along. I wanted to make her feel as comfortable as possible. Dora loves to sleep all day but as soon as you say the word cookie she is up and running to you looking for a cookie. It's the funniest thing. I don't know what the whole drinking out of the toilet thing is but she seems to like to do that all the time, so we have to keep the bathroom door closed. LOL. She is also very smart. I caught her one day using her paw to open the the lower cabinet to get to the cookies....well gotta find a new hiding spot now. She also likes to hide car keys. anything she can find. Dora and Jada (my other dog) when left alon they are always getting into something, like partner in crime...but in the doggy way. Having Dora here gives Jada a playmate when we are at work or just out. well thats it for now.
