Cougar Nougat

The family should be getting one bigger next Friday. He:

… has retired from racing. (Rumour has it he wasn’t the fastest.) A lot of greyhounds are just put down when their racing days are over, which is not only sad but also quite silly as they are really good companion animals.

He was called Cougar, both because he is lithe, fast and black, but also because he is a big pussycat. But we feel that sounds a bit mean, and we think he’ll accept Nougat as his name. And, like most greyhounds, his personality is really sweet and gentle.

Expect more pictures – the ones above are just from the rescue website.
