GreytHoundPoet Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) Ok...I've had to wade through almost 300 pictures today...so here's my best... We left for the airport at 10:30 am. Argos arrived from Madrid via Delta airlines in Atlanta, GA at 2:40 pm. His plane landed on time but we didn't meet him until about 4pm. We waited so excitedly and impatiently with our 2 friends (and GRIN reps) Chris and Stacey. Finally, after the LONGEST morning I've had in forever...I saw him come out... We couldn't take him out inside the airport, but when we got outside we sprung him.. Argos and his buddy that also came from Scooby, an Ibizan Hound Torrento. After an encounter with a loading dock nazi police officer who was rude, condescending, and unprofessional...we got Argos in the car. Argos in his new home: And...he played....first day! You can't make this stuff up... Thanks for looking! He is currently asleep and sleep hunting...

Tracey Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Congratulations!!! He's adorable! If he's that comfortable first day he should settle in in no time flat.

greyhndz Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 You are too handsome! He looks very relaxed and peaceful. He knows he's where he's meant to be. But I do think you're kind of scrimping on toys . All of my galgos fell in love with squeaky stuffies immediately. And I fell in love with all of my galgos immediately, as you have, too, with Argos. I look forward to hearing his daily journeys (and trials and tribulations) toward becoming part of the family. Hugs to you and Argos!
