We won't have this one for long

Strauss is charming, gregarious, confident, and beautiful. She isn't fazed by much and took her first bath without any apprehension or trembling. She also came prepared with a healthy appetite and happily gobbled up her first meal of retirement.

While Strauss is amused by her foster staghound sister, she truly only has eyes for the two humans in her household. Her bottom wiggles uncontrollably and her tail spins like a helicopter at the slightest eye contact with her foster parents.

Unfortunately, Strauss learned to use the stairs in a trial by fire when the resident cat gave her a welcome swat on the face. Nevertheless, she can now easily maneuver the stairs both upwards and downwards. Strauss quickly solved the mystery of the mirror and has no fear of shiny floors.

Uncommon for a greyhound, Strauss is also a natural sitter. She plops down on her hiney to garner pats on the head. This is mostly a ruse to draw you towards her, so she can jump up and kiss your face.

Strauss is a young thing at 2 years and 2 months. She is still very much a puppy, but only in the best ways. Her racing name is a perfect description of her personality: "Lady Adora" Not only is Strauss ladylike, she is also adorable. She has a gorgeous, regal face with cute envelope ears that flop this way and that.
