In addition to his ten dogs, ducks, chickens, pigeons, cats, a pig, a rabbit, and a bunch of Koi fishes, Steve Greig also has a lot of animals to keep him occupied. It all began when Greig lost his first dog. Steve grew up in a family surrounded by animals because both of his parents loved animals. It was so close to him that when it died, even months later, he still mourned its loss.
Therefore, Greig adopted the least adoptable dog at his local shelter to feel better. He adopted the most adoptable dog at the shelter as if he was still caring for his deceased dog. His house eventually boasted 10 pets, including a 12-year-old Chihuahua named Eeyore. Instead of mourning for the one he lost, he decided to adopt a new dog. As a result of the love he gave to Eeyore, he named him Eeyore.
He said that eight of the dogs at his house are his own, but two belong to his roommate and one to his sister, and they are still very important members of the pack, since his house now serves as an animal daycare facility.
As part of his morning routine, Gregg makes breakfast for everyone and gives his pets medicine before leaving for work, returning during lunchtime to check on his animals, and returning to work thereafter. As well as walking the dogs all the time, he also jogs every day when he is able to.
The weekends are his time for pet essentials and food shopping, vet visits and everything else necessary. Even though he has at least 10 pets, Greig is happy and enjoys the company of everyone. However, he has a special place in his heart for senior dogs.
As a result, senior dogs are less likely to be adopted in shelters because many people are looking for puppies. However, senior dogs are extremely easy to care for. They like to nap a lot, get along with other dogs and have a gentler temperament. Greig also says they tend to be wiser.
Almost all the pets in his house are quiet and snuggled up in napping corners, making it hard to tell whether he lives with so many.
When Greg’s old animal passes, he plans to adopt a new one to continue doing what he’s doing. He feels extremely rewarded for what he is doing, and it makes his life worthwhile.
