Kenny the Whippet Greyhund (I think)

[GreyhoundBuddy]

Kenny is my new foster boy.
What does everyone think?



After having 2 bubble baths he now smells like roses and not like a stray.

Kenny has mis shaped legs at the bottom, they turn outwards.  Hopefully with Steve's help he will be sorted, not 100% though.

Kenny looks stunning!
Its a shame about his back legs.
How long have you had him for?

He looks a lot of fun.

Will he need surgery or can he be mended without?

[GreyhoundBuddy]

It's his front legs, as we were told that he had rickets. If you look on our site, there is a picture of him and his legs.  I picked him up on Friday so only had him a short time.  He is not up for rehoming yet, need to get him castrated, legs sorted and also weight on him.

[GreyhoundBuddy]

We are hoping with some vitamin tablets they will straighten a little but we are going to get them x rayed when he gets castrated.

He is absolutely gorgeous.  Can't blame you for having to take him.  Fingers crossed he will show some improvement with some proper food and any vitamin deficiencies sorted.  He looks such a happy, fun boy and I bet makes mischief soon enough

we saw him when he first came on the stray aid site, and have been keeping an eye on him ever since, we were even considering giving him a home if he were cat friendly! Glad to see he's safe at the rescue

never mind the legs who could resist the face he is adorable. good luck with him

[GreyhoundBuddy]

Yes Kenny was from Stray Aid.  I also saw him on site when he first came in and kept going back and back to his picture until I thought 'I may as well phone to reserve him for the rescue'. I did ask Steve first though.
He is living with Alfie Boo and Skye at the moment and has made himself right at home.  He is cat friendly at the moment

do his legs bother him at all? does he walk/run funny or anything?

[GreyhoundBuddy]

He reminds me of one of those Spanish trained horses at the front when he walks (lifting his legs high).  Funny at first but now I think its cute.
He also does not run around a lot, this could be due to him needing to gain weight and getting more energy.
When he wants to be on the sofa, he puts his front legs on and then I lift his butt up.
