djsgreys Posted November 21, 2008 Author Share Posted November 21, 2008 Thanks for the warm welcome everyone and for the nice comments on my babes - I'm pretty proud of them. Annie, I adopted my first grey, Zinny from Cindy as well before we formed Chinook Winds - do we by any chance have another connection - a grey friend now named Finn? Sammy was my second, an Arizona boy. Suzy and Moody raced in Florida, Souza is a Kansas girl and Dexter - well he is just a mystery. Yes Deb! Finn is my official Goddog! I love him to pieces! Is he not the easiest, sweetest, most stable pup you ever laid eyes on!!!Was he your foster? Hi Annie, small world. I fostered Finn (Damper) just for a few days before I flew out with him to meet his new Mom in Abbotsford - he is a very sweet boy - and I hear he is doing greyt.

Guest skinnydog Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Swede was actually adopted by a lady in Gibbons. He's a cross from Edson. I believe someone from Chinook did the home visit, but he was adopted through NCGL. I fostered him for a bit - despite some issues, he was a great dog. Kinda looked like a grey with lab legs.

greytpups Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Inquiring minds want to know How do you get 6 out the door in winter with coats, etc. It takes at least 5 minutes to get me and two greys dressed to go outside in the winter.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djsgreys Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 Welcome from Apple Hill, Ontario! Love your pups, what a family, I'm jealous!!! Here, hear greytpups! Inquisitive minds want to know! We have two now but when we are off the road in the next year, we are planning #3 & 4 and need to educate ourselves on having such a big family. It is always . . . . interesting. Whether we are going outside, feeding, watching TV, going to a M&G it is always interesting. We live on an acreage and have 1 acre fenced off just for the pups to play in. The little one never goes out to run with the greys but will go on walks with them. If we just have the 6 greys they are pretty used to the routine and will stand at the back door - really quite patiently - and put on their coats and leashes (none of ours ever wear boots - 24 boots to put on is just too much). DH snowblows a "track" in the running area so they do okay without boots. Adding in a foster or babysit can be a bit challenging at first but they usually take the cue from the pack and are good within a couple of days. We've learned always do things the same way and once we have the routine down it is not so hard. Really I always tell people that having 6 greys is like having 1 of any other breed - they are just so easy and smart!

Guest meakah Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Welcome from another Albertan. I am in Edmonton so we are very close! Koda is from SAGA back in the day when they were still in Edmonton. I have gone on a couple of 'walks' with Chinook Winds...maybe we have met before?

Guest Lovey_Hounds Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hi everyone, have looked at the forums for awhile - and learned a lot - but just registered today. I am from Alberta and share my home with a DH, six amazing greys, one wannabe and two cats. Will post a pic as soon as I figure out how. Hi there! we are near by each other!

djsgreys Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 Thanks for the warm welcomes from Nova Soctia and Ontario and from Alberta I think we have met Koda on one of the walks and I met both What For and Vegas at West Edmonton Mall.

Guest Audeamus Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I have, I went to the picnic last year and the year before that. And I've been to a couple of meet and greets. Maybe it wasn't you, it might have been Sue that Gir's met before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Audeamus Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I didn't bring Gir because he can be obnoxious sometimes but I'm pretty sure I've met and talked to you a couple of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
