Goldie's appetite back to normal.

Every time we have a foster greyhound, Goldie rushes to her food and starts gobbling it down. Must be a dog competition thing.

It was worse when we had Eric, as he was the most voracious eater we have had. We couldn't fill him, the poor thing. He would eat all his food, eye off Goldie's and then look for more. He was particularly thin (the Greyhound Adoption Program lady was pleasantly surprised at how he had put on weight when she came to pick him up - we didn't really notice the gradual change) and ate absolutley everything including cheese, peanut butter sandwiches, vegemite toast, salami, lebanese bread (once he stole a whole round and filling from the benchtop!).

So Goldie had plenty of competition for her food and ate accordingly. Now that Eric has been gone for a week, she's back to being picky.

She's also scratching herself to bits, but that's another story - spring. We'll try the special shampoo, then the antihistamines if that doesn't work and then the steroid thing if that doesn't work. Off to the vet, I guess. We have the best vet, he's a greyhound specialist but will stoop to treating other dogs!
