PEOPLE AROUND TOWN: Meet Jackie Cappiello, pictured above with her dog, Style. During his racing days, the 11-year-old greyhound was known as "Grey's Freestyle." Jackie is a volunteer with Greyhound Pets of America Senior Sanctuary of Florida, which is dedicated to placing senior greyhounds over the age of seven either in permanent foster homes or with new adoptive families.
