  1. Words cannot express how sorry I am that you had to say goodbye to your beautiful girlie. Remember all those good times and smile....
  2. Late to this thread, but... Many, many horses are sensitive to noises - most usually when their at shows - and many, many owners/riders use 'ear stuffies' with great success. They come in a couple different styles...soft and fluffy like an old fashioned wool pom-pom or a firm foam construction https://www.doversaddlery.com/horse-ear-plugs/c/3805/
  3. Awwww..... AnnIE Our Kibo's 'Mini Mini Lambchop' is very well loved. Howsoever he is only allowed to have her under my supervision as Joshi will quickly kidnap her. Hence this stink-eye
  4. Can my Stoney Pony be added? He gained his wings on June 30
  5. We have an Irish Greyhound and a Galgo. Irish Sid is now 9 and came to Canada in the fall of 2017. He was well-loved by his Irish owner & trainer. He’s a super calm fellow and a Certified St John Ambulance TD. He visits school children with anxiety/Autism. I have not really noticed much difference in temperament from the 3 USA Greyhounds we’ve had. They were all calm and easy going hounds as well. I think it really depends on the environment they were raised in and Sid had a very loving home in Ireland. Kibo the Galgo (6) has been with us for almost 4 years. He was found on the streets in Spain with a broken hock and spinal/neck injuries. 112 Carlota took him in and did weeks of amazing rehab and he had mostly recovered by the time he came here. He is a really great boy. He is super loving and craves attention, but is just a bit flighty! He does not like loud noises. He hates rain and bugs. Can be dog-reactive. His early years are unknown but likely spent hunting and then living on the streets. He does enjoy visiting our local Long Term Care home and the weird sights, noises, smells etc do not bother him at all. The Galgo rescues do require a 6’ fence. We also have a 2 yr old GSD/Saluki mix from Qatar. She’s an amazing little tripod. Super friendly and outgoing. This is the second dog we adopted from Qatar but unfortunately Canadian Gov’t regulations do not allow these anymore. You could look into other Sighthound rescues. They will also require a 6’ fence.
  6. Ahhhhhh…nothing like an outdoor sunshine nappy p.s. TheWidge and Patty Mayhem love watermelon
