Remy passed away early Friday morning. He was such a good boy. He's not a greyhound but a Bull Dog Boxer mix. He had a rough early life living on the streets in Allegany County, Md. We think his owner kept him chained up all the time, abused him and Remy broke free and my wife's dog shelter got him.
Nobody wanted to adopt Remy, he has fear and trust issues. He liked my wife, me and my sister.
The lady who runs the shelter was going to put him down, but we adopted him and saved him.
My wife worked very hard and Remy even went to dog boot camp to get re trained. Even though he didn't like people he didn't know, he was great with us and our greyhounds and other dogs at daycare.
Remy and my wife trained in Rally and Nose work. He had earned his Nosework level 1 title and his Rally 1 and 2 titles with Excellence. Not bad for a fear reactive deaf dog.  Remy traveled many miles with us on our vacations and saw alot in his 6+ years we had him.
He protected us and our greyhounds and I will miss his sweat face. Rest now Remy until we see you again.

I'm sorry to hear you had to let him go.

What a wonderful stroke of fate that led you to him - you made him happy & loved for the first time in his life, by the sound of it. And what an achievement to get his level 1 nose work!

RIP Remy, run free & wait at Rainbow Bridge.
