We adopted Freya in March and it has turned out to be one of the best things we've ever done. When she arrived she was very bouncy and leapt up on everyone but she is so willing to please that within a couple of months she had become very polite, although she still does that greyhound equivalent of a leg-up, although it's much ruder! She also tolerates our three cats enough to conscientiously ignore them and to lick their food bowls clean. We really love her and her joy for life!!!
