  1. I wrote this for our group and should be of help. https://greyhoundfriends.com/wp-content/documents/New-Owner-Guidebook.pdf
  2. Thanks Jeff. Certainly possible that I clicked the wrong button. I'll let you know if it happens again on my iPad.
  3. Sorry for the delay, Jeff. Had a nearby tornado last night that fortunately didn't touch down. 7:15am currently on laptop Switching to iPad: clicked Sign In, entered user name and password. "use saved password", Yes I generally leave it on that, able to now proceed without a captcha.
  4. Yes, I could do your demo puzzle completion. I had the "click on all photos with" and the "click and drag puzzle". Neither worked. I do remember seeing Sign In not Sign On, but that's where my email address and password failed, prompting the captcha.
  5. Reach out to Carol Becker Rizzo https://www.etsy.com/shop/godsgreyts She sells "Assistance Harnesses" on her Etsy page.
  6. I don't often use my iPad for GT but recently I have encountered having to select Captcha images to continue to sign in. Even if I get the photos correct, and even if my sign on is correct, I am still not recognized. I don't often sign out on my laptop, but that has never prevented me from logging on with my phone.
  7. Punkin, how big a nest was it and why didn't your mom help you dig it out? Better now in the frozen time than the muddy time, am i right?
  8. Is the floor portion something other than carpeting? Will she walk across the same floor material if its in a different part of the house? Walking one of my podencos is like dragging a cinderblock, so no walks for him. He is hesitant to go into the fenced backyard, but once there will walk around with other dogs. That's a big change from when I first got him - he had to be leash walked in the backyard for months because of his fear. It's been almost 2 years since he came here. He has gained some confidence in being around my other 2 podencos. Working with my vet we tried everything, from Adaptil collars and plug ins diffusers, dog-safe AnimalEO brand essential oils, benadryl, and several Rx meds. About six months ago my vet, (with a strong pharmacology background), and I were about to give up. She suggested an older med: Amitriptyline. Normally for arthritis relief it has a side benefit in aiding anxiety. We noticed improvement starting in 2 weeks. It is inexpensive and does not sedate. If your vet is willing to try it he/she will need to check for compatibility with other meds. It cannot be taken with Trazodone. My boy still doesn't not want to go for walks, but is less stressed, less fearful, and enjoying more time in the backyard. Which meds were they?
  9. Saying goodbye to the beautiful greyhounds and their friends who left us in 2023. As you run with the wind send a caress to wipe our tears. Gone but never forgotten. Loved forever.

  10. Its not you, its me. Have you tried switching sides? We made need to find a dog psychiatrist to analyze this. Have you changed your petting technique? Eaten food without sharing? Experimented by sitting on their dog beds and then swapping beds? Offered to let them use the TV remote control?

MacDuff Mac Milo, a cute little mix fella Toni Kane, greyhound lover Cole, roadie greyhound of country singer Hunter Hayes They'll always be with us, just slightly beyond the point that we can see with our eyes.

  12. It's just about time for me to start taking all your lovely Christmas cards down. They really are the only holiday decorating that I do. Thank you so much for sending them!
  13. Samoeba, I agree with everything DocsDoctor said. If you use a slip lead you're liable to lose your dog too easily. Searching this Training and Behavior forum with "statue" pulls up many previous posts. You may find them to be helpful. https://forum.greytalk.com/search/?q=statues&quick=1&type=forums_topic&nodes=12
  14. Milo sounds like such a sweet boy. I'm glad that destiny led him to your door.
  15. Better to start a new thread describing your greyhound's symptoms, age, tests done, meds, and current food. Liz has not been on Greytalk since 2019. Type PLE in the search box in the Health & Medical section and look for the newest posts on this topic for current treatments.
  16. Good girl Gelsey aka the Blonde Bandit! My Podenco Orito, NoAh, identifies as the Brown Bandit since he is a chocolate color boy. He has knot yet snagged any food bits, however he seems to have a preference for magazines, note pads, and his dad's socks.
  17. Somewhere in one of those print issues is my girl Gracie. I know I have at least 2 copies of the issue of Gracie visiting the Marines for therapy visits.
  18. You truly have had a family of gems.
  19. What part of the country are you in? We may be able to suggest a greyhound-savvy vet.
  20. Could be a scratched cornea. Could be an injury. Any chance she bumped into something in your yard? Cloudiness can occur as they age. Pannus would make the eye totally cloudy. That this is happening in only one eye is concerning. How bad is the pus oozing? Constant? Upon waking? Any eye issue should be treated seriously. Did your vet check specifically for this problem? Did he put stain drops in the eyes? She may only need Rx eye drops specific to the diagnosis. She definitely needs to wear an E-collar to prevent her from pawing at or rubbing her eye.
  21. Did you paint it yourself? The one you sent me is perfectly podenco!
