  1. Very good input in the other answers. I like to add a second thought, too. Afghan hounds are a very old breed. They are genetically very close to wolves which means that their genes are very old, very original dog. Approaching another dog nose to nose is very impolite. Staring at other dogs is also very impolite.

    Your dog with the oldest genetics met a fairly younger dog, one of those who often (due to their breeding) stare at others in the most impolite ways (in dog speech). This situation triggered something in his very old behaviourism. Afghans are wonderful dogs but you need to understand that they are not your average neighbourhood pooch ( plus oriental sighthound breeds are always guard dogs, too).

    <...small space for people but a big fenced yard for the greyts> Priorities!!!

    Twice a day the tides change and the sea recedes so far that you can walk to the islands in front of the coast. The best place to let the dogs run and have fun. 

  3. We are on holidays in the northern parts of Germany. I thought you guys might like some pics of our adventures.

    Our little holiday cottages sits in the middle of the moorlands, 20 minutes from the coast.

    Walkies in the moorland behind our home and a trip to the North Sea.

    Graves from the stone age. This is a very old area.

    When we got back to sea some days later, there was water where there was loads of space to run and play before.

    Who can say that there was a big ship where he was running and playing just days before?

    I think those are Irish tattoos.  Have you tried inputting them on Greyhound Data?  They often have foreign dogs listed.   Your adoption group should be able to tell you his registered name.

    Irish tattoos are two letters in one ear and 3 in the other.

    Absolutely incredible!  Well done!  In order for my two to find anyone, the person would have to be holding a live rabbit and sitting on a roast beef.

    You would be surprised. I would have never thought that Mooney would learn to use his nose that fast.

    I'd forgotten about that ;)   I'm pretty sure I could find out Nadine's address, one way or another :ph34r, but the only screaming monkeys I can find for sale are too small to be safe for dogs, so she's safe.  For now.  

    I did see where someone was trying to order 150 of the little screaming monkeys in time for a wedding.  :yikes 

    No chance. And I never participated in the christmas cwrd exchsnge and never will :crazy

    At least it's not a Screaming Monkey.  Did you have these in Germany?  Small, able to be projected like a slingshot, and with an incredibly loud and obnoxious sound (until the dog killed the sound mechanism).  

    No. We don't have those. I don't think I could live with them.

    Gelsey wants to know if she can come and join in the fun.  The dogs joined me as I was working in the yard yesterday, and the weather was glorious.  Gelsey was trying her hardest to get Milo to run and bark and play bitey-face.  But after running one lap, he was done and preferred to lie in the sun on the soft grass.  Somehow, my perpetual motion machine has turned 12 and started to slow down.  How did this happen?  But Gelsey still has lots of energy and would love to come play as long as she can get home in time for supper.  

    Come on over. Abu prefers to lie in the sand, too. Gelsey can join Saoirse and Mooney. These two are always running and playing.
