Welcome to greytalk!! I knew someone here in MD who had a staghound years ago - great doggy! Can't wait to hear stories about yours! (And truly, we love ALL sighthounds here... oh, and Dobies too... and poodles... and, well, you get the picture!)
Merlin (ashes) is back home... in a box sitting next to Cody's... don't know what I'll ever do with them though.
I had them do a paw print of him... they did a really nice job. I really wish I'd had the option with Cody.
Welcome Lydia! And she's named after my favorite movie song! (I tried to teach it to my 3 year old great-nieces - it didn't stick...)
Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia...
