Please share a story about your hound's superpower or superhero. Does she have the ability to destroy toys with a single chomp? Does he heal hearts as a therapy dog? Does your girl wish she could fly so she could finally get over that fence and get those bunnies? Does your favorite boy miss his superhero daddy because he serves his country in the military? Or just tell us what makes your greyhound special – they all have a superpower hold on our hearts!
Sirius' superpower is the ability to bring a smile to anyone's face. Sirius went to the Alzheimer's Unit at my grandmother's nursing home every weekend for 2.5 years. All of the patient's and the staff thoroughly enjoyed Sirius' visits and looked forward to his visits. This picture is of Sirius lying with my grandmother, Nina, in her bed a few months before she passed away. Nina was not a dog lover at all and she loved Sirius enough to let him lay on her bed with her. She would even invite him to jump into bed with her. Sirius is my superhero!
