  1. I'm so sorry. Run free, Payne.
  2. Hello from the complete opposite end of the state!
  3. Welcome, she's a beauty ....and so sorry about Quinn
  4. Now that's weird, because I just took Lily to the vet last month and didn't get it because the vet said it was something that mostly outdoor dogs, i.e. dogs that live on a farm, get from drinking stagnant water. Well, I guess most farms have rats...?
  5. He WAS beautiful. Is that really snow? That is a gorgeous photo! (with a gorgeous subject, of course....) Bridge days are tough. Hugs to you.
  6. Happy birthday Snowy, you share the same birthday as my Clarice. Have some cake together. Pretty flowers for an even prettier girl.
  7. Tomorrow is Clarice's birthday, her second birthday at the bridge. She would have been 17. My dh and I always said that she would at LEAST make it to 17, she had such energy. Happy birthday to the sweetest of sweeties. Thank you for all the wonderful memories, and for teaching us about TRUE loveHer last Christmas with a new toy Clarice and brother Birdie begging for treats.
  8. Hi Renee, my husband is originally from Dover, and Gloria, I am originally from Basking Ridge, my mother still lives there. When we were buying a house, Morris and Somerset Counties were out of the question. Sussex is more like the Somerset county I grew up in, uncrowded, lots of farms and woods, nice slow pace. Good place to raise a family....of dogs
  9. I'm in Newton in Sussex county, "the sticks" if you're from North Jersey....
  10. Hi all, I've been lurking for awhile and finally decided to join. We are owned by Birdie, a 9 year old male JRT(error) who we adopted when he was almost 3 (I believe we're his 4th home), and Tigerlily (I know, I know but if you saw my backyard the third week in July when we got her you'd understand--hey when I learn to post pics you will see) Lily for short, a 4 year old GH. We couldn't be more pleased with our big gal. Her arrival story is sort of interesting--I indirectly have Michael Vick to thank ... We lost Clarice, our mixed breed girl in March of 2007. We were devastated, and were in no way ready to get another dog. Fast forward to July 2007 when all that stuff came to light with Michael Vick. I was angry, disgusted, and felt I had to do something. Like I needed to adopt a dog, any dog, that needed a home. I was aimlessly surfing the internet one day and came across the Greyhound Friends of New Jersey website and gasped when I saw a fawn colored dog with soulful eyes, a dog that reminded me so much of Clarice. A beautiful Greyhound. After much discussion, my DH and I decided to apply, and were matched up with Odwilla, a red brindle tall drink of water. We renamed her Lily (Tigerlily) and the rest, as they say, is history. We are looking forward to learning a lot and getting to know you fine folks and your beautiful hounds. Pam and Oscar Lily the GH and Birdie the JRT
