In Loving Memory of Three Wonderful Greyhounds Willie McCoy (Willie)        Unabridged (Walker)        Delta Dream (Delta) 8/01/88 - 12/17/00       6/01/90 - 12/20/02        5/01/92 - 06/21/04

I got Willie McCoy directly from the track and he loved to exercise hard for about 4 years after I got him.  He was a good friend and companion for Walker and Delta (my other Greyhounds), and also me.  Willie came down with a rapid growing form of bone cancer.  He was put down on 12/17/00, when the pain got to the point that morphine wasn't working anymore.   The vet said I did the right thing.  Willie really loved to run.  In fact, he had to go for a short walk even on the last day of his life. Walker (who raced as Unabridged), passed away on 12/20/02, two years after Willie.  He died from congestive heart failure and was very well treated by the caring doctors at Tiara Rado Animal Hospital.  Walker only developed heart problems about 6 months before he died.  Thankfully he did not experience much cardiac distress until the last 2 or 3 days of his life. Sadly, on 6/21/04 my last Greyhound, Delta Dream, died of heart failure and chronic kidney failure.  Delta was a very kind and considerate dog.  She tried very hard to get along with everyone, even cats.  When I was gone on business trips, I used to leave her with a lady who had a large grouping of different animals, one of them a ferret.  Delta and the ferret played together a lot.  She was a really sweet Greyhound who made the world a better place by her presence. Willie McCoy, Walker and Delta were the nicest Greyhounds I've ever known and I am deeply saddened by their passing.  I miss my three Greyhounds so very much. Mark McFee Grand Junction, CO.
