Although retired greyhounds have never experienced anything better than an exhaustive existence as moneymakers, they adapt quite easy into family life.

Consider an adoption, you won't regret it!

His girlfriend Wendy is Krümel's number one interest, but when she is tired of him and wants to do something on her own like gnawing away cork boards, plume the feathering or eat, he is also very passionate about a little toy ball.
But have a look yourself!
When we rode our pushbikes through a park in North Sydney we saw heaps of rainbow lorikeets getting fed there. A Little Corella was sitting in a nearby tree munching on a piece of bread roll while ibisses, doves and a duck were joining the nosh-up.
