Finally Joined Greytalk

After lurking for some time, I finally joined GreyTalk today smile.gif

We adopted our first greyhound, Little Joe (formerly Calypso Joe - 2 years old) almost two months ago. Three weeks after bringing him home we chipped, and brought home his half-brother, Shadow (formerly WJS Shadow King - 3 years old).

Even though it's only been a short time, I can't imagine my life without greyhounds now. They are wonderful boys, and they have added so much to our home. We have two children, ages 5 and 7, and the dogs are fantastic with them. My daughter (the younger of the two) was terrified of dogs. She cried when we went to the rescue to look at the hounds, but I knew she would come around, and she did. Two days after Joe came home she was over her fear and now comfortably shares her space with both of the guys.

Anyway, here are some photos of our hounds. Looking forward to participating here and getting to know everyone a little bit!

Joe is the brindle, Shadow is the black:

Hi Callen! Welcome to GT to which I feel somewhat addicted and haven't been on the GRA forum much thumbs-up.gif

They finally cut the grass at NCR...hope to see you and the pups sometime. How does Shadow like his new home and former turn-out mate?

We'll be out at the NCR on Sunday at around 8:30am or so smile.gif It will be nice to have the grass shorter. I will have to bring my camera and get some decent pictures.

He's doing really well with Joe, and he seems to love retirement. They have become pals, even sharing the same bed/blankets quite often!
