Update: Nadir has been adopted!
Nadir is a lovely dog - mostly white, with some interesting tan markings.
He is very sweet-tempered, and maybe a little bit shy (though it didn't seem to take very long before he was willing to trust me when I had him out.) He is a velcro-dog in the making: he was definitely eager to stay as close to me as possible, even when I removed his leash. He did explore the yard a little, but I could tell that he was keeping a close watch on me to make sure that I didn't run away!
He is a leaner and once I sat down, he came over and put his head in my lap and just closed his eyes, enjoying his ear rub.
I remembered that I had some treats down in my car, so I walked him there and gave him a few. He really enjoyed them! He was more than willing to take whatever treats I had for him, and looked a little disappointed when I tossed the bag back into my car! In fact, he tried to climb into the front seat of my car after that.
Nadir will be a great dog for someone - he seems to be that perfect combination of calm, eager-to-please, and happy to be with people.
Oh, and curious. He finally succumbed to the desire to know what the "clicky box" in my hand was.
Greyhounds (sight hounds) are so sweet! I wish I had room for him!
