[I Lurked, I Joined, I Lurked A Bit More And Now It Is Time To Say Hell]

Hello and congrats to you and Zachary.

[Update On Cricket]

Cricket, You keep going strong. Sounds like some improvement

[Welcome Home, Dazzling!]

She looks like she's never been anywhere else! So comfy in the dog bed - she's in heaven . Congrats.

[Brody Could Use Some Positive Thoughts]

Checking in to see how Brody is doing. Has the vet checked for allergies?? That could cause rash and swelling.

[Harry Wants To Say Hello!]

Greetings from Sterling and Kelsey from Staten Island, NY.

["happy Tail" -need Advice]

Sterling had a bloody tail last month and it did take about 3-4 weeks with the bandages. Its not easy to keep them on - even with taping to th hair. Twice I came home to find odd tubes of Vetrap on the floor His tail did need to be shaved cos two spots of skin had to be cut. Its all healed now and just waiting for the hair to grow back and, hopefully, cover the scars.

[Our First Greyhound!]

Toni is a real pretty brindle girl - congrats!!

[Gifts Wishes Desires Etc]

This is our first SS also. I think that anything for the pups is good: Jammies, treats, collars, stuffies, etc. anything really. Sterling is a white and fawn boy at 70 lbs or so. Kelsey is a petite girl at 57 lbs and is white with brindle patches. I like anything.

[Secret Santa 2007]

IS there a way of finding out your SS recipient"s user name? All I have is the real name and address so I don't know what they have posted?

[Newbie!]

Welcome from Staten Island, NY

[Itchy Excema Type Patch On Tummy]

Sterling has this pimply-looking rash on his belly. Its right where his belly touches the floor, rug, bed etc. when he lays down. Your boy may have something like this, scratched at it and now is itchy from the scratching or an infection. Have the vet check it out.

[Belle's Ss.. Thank You...]

Was that a secretsanta or the Great Pumpkin??

[Tail Meets Door]

Last month Sterling got some skin ripped off his tail about half way down. Couldn't do stitches so it got antibiotics and bandaging. It oozed for a couple weeks but now its all healed and I'm hoping that when the hair grows back it will cover fsome of the scarring.

[Scotland Calling ...]

[Dewclaws?]

Sterling came to me without them but Kelsey still has both of hers. Unfortunately she has caught them 3 times already. The vet just trims it and wraps. I do worry about it.

[Bathing Your Grey(s)]

Sterling and Kelsey ususally get Sun afternoon baths because I take them to the park on sat. and sun. mornings and they love to go in the water at the beach (Salt water). If I don't at least rinse them, they get scratchy from the salt and sand.

[Lacey Laine]
