  1. I'm so sorry for your loss of Jet. I love the pics posted of your sweet boy
  2. I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember her from playgroup a long long time ago.
  3. I saw Shrubby on fb and he's still as cute as ever. My pre-adopt has been home for almost 2 years (August 13, 2013. Katiebug is a good girl and greyt addition. Chad, I think you have me beat for the longest wait now. I waited 51 months.
  4. Chad is right about growling is just a way of communicating. We have 3 greyhounds and each one tolerates behaviour of other dogs differently. Brooke is the most tolerant, so when she growls I know the dog's behaviour is really really obnoxious and I may mention this to the owner, depending on the situation. Ben will tolerate a lot but not a dog who lunges at him or tries to mount him. Ben will growl so I rarely have to step in. Katie is the least tolerant of bad dog behaviour and since I know this, I will allow dogs to sniff her if they greet her on her side, but I will step in between her and a badly behaved dog so the dog can't get near her. Without knowing all the details, your greyhound may be less tolerant of badly behaved dogs and is letting them know, rather than being cranky. She did fine with the last situation you mentioned. I suggest you read a good book about dog social behaviour and see if you can recognize the signs to see which dog is causing the issues you describe.
  5. Congratulations on the new addition to the family. His health may slowly improve now, but I guess that depends a lot on how much care or lack of care was provided by previous owners. Hopefully he has many many good days left.
  6. I'm so sorry for your loss. Please pass my condolences to Lynn as well.
  7. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure she helped you through a lot of tough times
  8. I'm so sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing.
  9. Congratulations! She's beautiful. Hoping all continues to go well.
  10. Rita, I'm so sorry to hear about Toby. How heartbreaking this must be.
  11. I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I am to hear this I wish I could offer some words of comfort because I know she's been with you through a lot of stuff in your life.
  12. Yes, copy the important points down from this thread so you have them with you (in case you forget what to ask) and see your reg vet asap. If he/she doesn't do anything differently for Amber's care, get a second opinion asap.
  13. Maybe it got dry and that caused it to bleed?? not sure but I am glad he's healing. Give my sweetie some scritches please...and a good bum rub while you're at it.
  14. I'm so sorry to hear this...my thoughts are with you and everyone else who loved her.
  15. Welcome from Canada. I love that you adopted Irish Greyhounds! I have friends here who adopted an Irish Greyhound from an Ontario adoption group and hope many people learn more about them and want to adopt them. There's a Facebook group, FIG, Flying Irish Greyhounds, who encourage people to post pics of their Irish Greyhounds so more people all over the world can see what great pets they make. I posted the links below if you want to know where to post more pics. https://www.facebook.com/flyingirishgreyhounds?fref=ts http://www.flyingirishgreyhounds.com/about-fig/
  16. I'm so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful last day.
  17. sending good thoughts and hope it is eradicated
  18. I too knew this day would come, but it's still sad that he didn't have a bit more time with you where he was loved and cherished. I guess because he was such a sweet old soul (and only 25 days younger than Ben) that he touched my heart. Your kindness and love are so evident in his beautiful tribute Ducky, you are such a special person
