Guest socacts Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Here are some pictures! He's a gorgeous dog - definitely looks more like a greyhound, can't figure out what his other half is. People on the street assume he's a greyhound, so I guess it's hard to tell. Thank you all for the warm welcome! I'd love to get together with some other local greyhound owners. Are there any events coming up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosmom Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) He's approved here! What a beautiful boy and he looks very greyhoundish. What's his name?

Guest socacts Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Aerosmom, thanks for the info. His name is Ruben (I'm sticking with his kennel name - it's unique!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any events coming up? That's Ruben, isn't it? I saw him well over a year and a half ago when I started looking. So glad he FINALLY found a home! Greyhound Adventues has a greyhounds-only rule so you might run it past the leaders there at how strictly they define that...

Guest fastdogs Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) Is this THE Rueben?!?! From Greyhound Friends in Hopkinton? Just what I was thinking! Welcome, from Winthrop. Greyhound Adventures I'm not a GA officer, but by the looks of him, I'd say he'd be able to fit in. Two GA officers on Greytalk are: riverbosun JenniferS sorry Melissa.

SPDoggie Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Welcome from North of Boston... you'll have lots of opportunities to meet other greys between Greyhound Adventures and Trail Bound Hounds... and the many greys in the area who don't get out to group-walks much!

Guest Taragreyhound Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Welcome from SE Mass! Ruben is a sweetheart- so glad he's found a home with you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffron Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Welcome from Harvard, MA (the town not that place in Cambridge ). Ruben was at GH-F for ages. I'm so glad he has a home! He looks just like a grey to me ... Other upcoming events in MA include the GAS Reunion in Westford on May 10, and the GH-Friends 2-day open house in Hopkinton on (I think) the following weekend. Reminders and directions will be posted on the events page here. Come with Ruben and meet loads of grey owners and greys, participate in fun and games, and realise that there are many accessories that you had no idea that you needed but absolutely have to buy!

Guest SoulsMom Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 So it IS Ruben! I'm so happy he found a home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest socacts Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 (edited) I know, I couldn't believe how long he had been there! He is such an amazing dog. I'm so lucky to have him. Is Greyhound Adventures really strict about that? Greyhound Friends gave me their name, so hopefully they will let us join in. I would love to go on some of the walks with other owners, and I think Ruben misses the company of the greys he has known for so long.

Guest SoulsMom Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 That's the same way I feel about Soul. He waited for a long time too, and he's such a wonderful boy Be sure to come out to our open house in May, I'd love to see Ruben! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddiesmom Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I remember seeing Reuben at GF- I check their website often and I have bought some stuff from their online store and I contacted them when I was on Nantucket 2 summers and there was a grey in the local shelter up there - So glad that Reuben has found his forever home. he is such a lucky boy Quote Amy Human Mommy to fur baby Maddie (Doobiesaurus) TDI certified.

Guest RooRoo Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) Hi from SE Mass... If you're up for walking on a Saturday morning and heading a bit south of Brookline, join Trail Bound Hounds on a walk! And as you heard, Sunday walks with Greyhounds Adventures. Both groups offer a great opportunity to get out with your boy and meet other greys and their people. Both TBH and GA hold other events throughout the year too (e.g. Greyhound Planet Celebration in September, Jingle Bell Walk in Boston in December, etc.) Yup, lots of stuff coming up as mentioned... May 10th Greyhound Adoption Service Reunion, Westford, MA May 17th and May 18th Greyhound Friends Open House June 13-15th -5th Annual Greyhound Adoption Expo, Revere, Raynham & Easton Congratulations and best of luck He is so handsome Maria with Rizzo and Kiwi Edited April 24, 2008 by RooRoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
