A week ago today, we adopted this beautiful little dinky dot, Gracie (Bramble Lady). 
John was adamant that we weren’t going to adopt a third greyhound until Gracie set her eyes on him and melted his heart 😍 ... and that was that!
Gracie has settled in really well and loves her big sister and brother, Lola and Finley, who are both showing her the ropes. Her confidence is growing by the day and I get a sneaky feeling that she’s going to be a proper little bossy boots in no time 🤣🤣
Thank you Northumberland Greyhound Rescue ♥️♥️
