Guest moasmom Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 On Saturday my husband and I adopted our first-ever retired racer. We live in the San Francisco Bay Area and we happened upon a wonderful group called Golden State Greyhound Adoption. They chose the perfect dog for us! Her name is Mandy, she turned 2 on May 20, and she's white with brindle patches on her head. She has such a sweet, goofy, affectionate and fun personality, and we couldn't be more in love. How much fun we are going to have getting to know her even better! Here's a link to her photo album: http://www.PictureTrail.com/gid17146721 Nice to meet y'all, Kara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montgomery2524 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Mandy is a beautiful girl! As Houndtime said, your life is about to change forever. Suddenly discussing dog poop is a normal thing that everyone does. Welcome to Greytalk!

Guest moasmom Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Thanks for all the warm welcomes! This place is so friendly. Yes, my husband, Joe, is smitten. I'm jealous because he gets to stay home all day with Mandy (he got laid off a week ago; I'm not exactly jealous of that part). Lolasmom, we live in Martinez, btw. Hi right back at you!

Hawthorn Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Welcome I really enjoyed looking at all the photos. Quote When a relationship of love is disrupted, the relationship does not cease. The love continues; therefore, the relationship continues. The work of grief is to reconcile and redeem life to a different love relationship. ~ W Scott Lineberry Always Greyhounds Home Boarding and Greyhounds With Love House Sitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bowiebears Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Welcome to you from the Maryland 'burbs of DC! Mandy is a cutie indeed. As for fitting in a Subaru, I bought my Forester because the back was tall enough for my 2 hounds to stand up in without any problem. Yep, they fit!!!! Congrats to all! --isaac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
