  1. So glad she's through it and home again. As Ducky says, I'm sure teeth are overrated.
  2. Me, too. I was going to put up my autumn flag with leaves on it but it just seemed a little silly in SW Florida.
  3. I think a good visual might include a flexi leash and a garbage can.
  4. AnniEE looks so blessedly comfy, I'd have delayed box opening so as not to disturb her.
  5. I love those pictures of your beautiful hounds. I always brought back houndie goodies from the buffet.
  6. I don't know what makes me more jealous, sweet cuddling houndies or weather cool enough to snuggle.
  7. We just moved FROM the Hudson Valley. Sadly, there are no close greyhound adoption groups (and one sorta close one you don't want to deal with). I did make a greyhound friend via this very forum so good luck. By the way Mercury said the MidHudson Bridge is delicious.
  8. I saw that one (you had posted it in another thread). I'm still concerned that anything that relies of evaporation won't work in our humidity.
  9. We have an outdoor pool and I can't wait to get Jupiter into it. So far, it's been a big NOPE but maybe as it gets even hotter.... You may remember my Mercury got used to the pool.... eventually.
  10. I've read all the threads on heat management that I could find (including mentions of our beloved Rocket in the desert) but still have a few questions regarding cooling coats. It's early June at 79 degrees at 7 a.m. We keep our walks early and stay on sidewalks or grass avoiding pavement whenever possible. After a 30-40 minute walk, Jupiter seems to cool down within 10-15 minutes (we delay breakfast until he's cool). Morning's will only get hotter so I'm considering a cooling coat. But... physics. The humidity here ranges from 95-1000% . I don't think a wet coat will work as it won't evaporate. I'm happy for all suggestions for other types of cool coats or other products. (Yes, yes, we will be having a discussion of leather boots for hot pavements). Thanks in advance
  11. As usual, I’m late to the party but happy to hear she’s doing well. I see lots of ETS in her future.
  12. Our latest installment of WWWE (what will Wiki eat?). Keep them coming, please.
