Cheryl I am so sorry you are feeling the loss of Benny so hard this week. In my own experience the grief never really leaves, but it does change into something more manageable. Don't fret over getting over it; you don't *have* to get over it. Remember him fondly and be at peace. I'll hold you in my thoughts at this most difficult time.

Nope. All four of mine are very well adjusted, including my first greyhound. He was a single dog for the first 18 months here before we added greyhound # 2. Never had a problem. Now three greyhounds later, still don't have any problems.
Shining Star, my Grey's Statesman girl has both Representation and K's Flak in her pedigree as well. Wonder how closely related they are? Her racing name was J's Cruel Girl. Her Mom was J's Svetlana, Grey's Statesman was her Dad.
Interesting!
Sarah I am so sorry for your loss. In time I hope you have the happy memories of your time with Ailish to replace the pain you are feeling now.
Be well.
