Haley

Italian Greyhound
August 14th, 2000 – August 15th,  2013

We brought Haley home in October of 2000, she was Travis and my first dog together. Haley was a handful when we first got her. It had been so long since I had taken care of a puppy. I had forgotten what it was like. But Haley was not like any puppy I had before. We soon found that we would have a lot of sleepless nights. Haley did take a long time to potty train. She got smarter and started pooping under our dining room table where she thought we wouldn’t see it. That worked until we’d walk by and smell it.

I’m not sure when it finally happened but we did end up with a great dog. I think it was the persistence on our part.

Haley used to have seizures and took medication daily. She eventually did very well after a while of being on the medication. She used to run around and play with Chase and runs after toys in the backyard. She also liked to bark at people as they walk by our house. You wouldn’t even know that she ever had a problem. We were very fortunate to have her in our lives. She is missed very much.
