Pastrami alert!

He could just be being greyhound contrary but equally something could have spooked him recently - just because you didn’t notice it, it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen! Are you able to walk him a slightly different way- turning left out of your gate if you normally turn right, for example? Or take him out through the back door instead of the front? A little change might help to break this habit. Also, how old is he? Just wondering if his eyesight might be starting to fail him, and he might be seeing shadows that are freaking him out a bit

Always graceful and elegant

Buddy’s from the same gene pool as Wiki, Doolin and Willa. The sofa is too squishy underfoot, and Buds prefers the ground under his feet to be firm and unmoving. Your dog will probably love that you are in the same room as him as he won’t have to sleep alone. The whining will probably subside when he’s used to his environment- but it’s the middle of the night flapattack that could shred your nerves! https://www.pinterest.fr/pin/859413541370510139/ You could look up Rich Skipworth’s Greyhound glossary for other such quirky traits, including the ‘glopping’ that HeyRunDog mentions above!

We have this one https://www.kurgo.com/dog-travel/backseat-barrier but it’s never really been tested as Buddy hasn’t particularly enjoyed riding in either of the cars it’s been used in. I also haven’t managed to set it up as high as shown in the photo as the attached straps are a bit of a tangle. The other thing I have used was a strap that fitted between the ceiling handles of the back seat. A second strap is attached by a carabiner to the first one, and at the other end it attaches to your dog. He has freedom to move around in the backseat but shouldn’t be able to escape. I think this is it (used slightly differently). https://www.kurgo.com/dog-seat-belts/auto-zip-line-leash-zip-line-combo (I don’t work for Kurgo! And while i haven’t found their products useful because of my car set up, they are robust and sturdy and I can see how they would work better with a more accommodating hound )

St Pooptrick’s Day

Those colours are stunning! The ladies are wondering where you can get a Guinness in this town, and where they should start their Paddy’s pub crawl

Yep. ‘Quick - open the back door!!’ [back door is opened but dog still pukes on his bed]

AnnIE she’s in her happy place

I think you probably just need to have a quite word with yourself about remembering to keep the dog treats out of reach…

They are fantastic photos! The focused look on their faces is unreal! It reminded me of a comment I saw earlier today ‘the sighthound: evolved to spot a discarded sandwich 1000 metres away’

Also missed this. Glad she’s on the mend. Teeth are over-rated anyway, AnnIE!

They both look very happy with this arrangement

I missed this when it was posted! Those coats are lovely and very fetching on your three. Just think of how many dog beds you could fit in that house!

Buddy says if you want to franchise out, he will be the CEO of UK operations

That look from Abu…looks like the seeds of a zoomie!

Poor girls. I think we have a similar forecast next week

Mooney’s tail has a mind of it’s own. Happy birthday Saoirse!

Keep trying new things Punkin! Remember, if you’re not living on the edge, you’re taking up too much room

Hello and welcome! I have no puppy experience (Buddy was mid-life crisis age when we adopted him) but I am looking forward to seeing more photos and hearing your stories!

LaVida has her best coat and eyeliner on. The girl’s ready to hit the town!

If Vivienne Westwood did dog collars… These are very fetching!

Annie

Happy birthday Wiki! Hope you had a great day
