HAPPILY RETIRED
ABOUT
Hello. I'm Paddy.
I'm a retired greyhound living on a small Scottish island with my human and spare human. Before retirement, I spent my time running around race tracks. These days I specialise in sleeping, beach patrols, strategic blanket arrangements and monitoring cheese supplies.

I enjoy long naps, walks, sunny spots and being hand-fed snacks.
I do not enjoy rain, late dinners or administrative failures.
What started as a few photos has grown into a community of dog lovers worldwide.
