AUSSIE TV HOST CAN’T GIVE UP HIS FOSTER GREYHOUNDS

Aussie TV host Todd McKenney started out fostering retired greyhounds while they awaited placement in their new homes, but found he couldn’t part with his first two temporary guests. He adopted retired racers Joey and Chrissy, and recently shared his experiences as a proud greyhound owner with viewers on Yahoo Channel 7 in New South Wales (NSW), Australia.

 

"I never looked back," McKenney said. "I’ll never be without them. I’ve had a few come through the house, but I kept two. They are beautiful, beautiful dogs.When I got Joey and Chrissy, I just couldn’t give them back."

Todd got his greyhounds through an adoption program sponsored by Greyhound Racing New South Wales, the regional organization responsible for overseeing and regulating greyhound racing there.

"I guess I’ve failed as a greyhound fosterer," laughed McKenney. "I always want to keep them. I could have twenty."
