Hello From Southwest Virginia!

I've been reading posts for a while now, so I decided it was time to introduce myself and my pup. I recently adopted Domino after six years of greyhound withdrawals. :) He is extremely spooky, but has made and continues to make huge progress every day with the help of his Boston Terrier brother, Oscar. When I adopted my first grey, there wasn't a place to go to gather information or support, so I am very thankful Greytalk is here. I've read the thread describing how to post a picture, so here's hoping I don't mess it up...

 

Without further ado, here's my Domino (aka Dominic, Dom Dom, Dommy, Nicky, etc.)

I was curious as well. Half of my relatives are in Clintwood, Abington and Kingsport Tenn.

 

Where in Wise County did you grow up? We could be related. :rolleyes:

You are absolutely right. I knew he was for me the moment I laid eyes on him. Every day is like Christmas around here with all the progress!

 

As the greytlady said, we are in Salem, right next to Roanoke. :)

Hidey there! :wave

 

Glad to see ya.

 

Give Domino a kiss from Auntie Sara. :wub::wub:

 

Consider it done...he's earned it! Today he got on the couch without being walked to it, and he took a nap with his head resting on me! I couldn't help but cry a little. It's the first prolonged contact that he's initiated. My heart is full. :colgate

:welcome2 from WV!!!! 5 hounds here plus a spooky foster!

 

The spooky ones ARE very rewarding. It's nice to see them change right in front of your eyes. I have 4 females and 1 male. The male was a real challenge, but it was so rewarding to watch him turn into a "regular" greyhound. (whatever that is) Enjoy!

Hello and welcome from a future Roanoker! You did fine with the pic, EXCEPT we will be needing lots more.

Missing my sweet girl Scout. My snuggler, my chow-hound, my kissy girl.
It never thunders at the Bridge, and your food bowl is ALWAYS filled.

So strange not living in Atty World. I was a love struck handmaiden to your every whim.
