Beckylpa Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hi! My name is Becky, my husband is Vince and we currently have one greyhound, a four year old male named Sam. We are in western PA. I have been reading here for about three months and thought I should do an intro. and hope to do pics soon. I have learned so much in a short amount of time. We have been adopting greyhounds since March 6, 1999. I can't believe it took me this LONG to find everyone here!!! Last year was a rough one, we lost our two girls within five months of each other. Of course we continue to miss them dearly. Sam is our 5th grey in the past ten years. I can't imagine not having these wonderful pups in our lives. We are currently thinking of fostering and/or adding another grey to our pack. I miss those girlies in my life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy cow I drive right by your mom's place to see my mom (Listie) Ok, now I thinking I have to know you and bet we've seen each other before. I lived on East Main before moving to the burg in 2000 and have been in Somerset since I was 16. Here's how I post pictures, if you need help let me know 1. create an account at www.photobucket.com 2. upload photos to said site by clicking on browse--- once you click on browse, it will give you a popup window allowing you to choose from where on your computer. Since you're a beginner, I suggest putting them on your desktop. 3. Once you are done finding the photo(s) you click submit if you look just above the little browse button, you have the option to submit multiple pictures... don't be scared, you just do the same thing over and over-- THEN click submit. 4. Once you get the "your files have been uploaded successfully". You can scroll down and see them there. 5. Below each photo are three little windows with what is called "html code". Again don't be afraid, you can't ruin it! 6. In the lowest of the three, you'll see IMG next to it on the left-- put your cursor in there, and left click ONCE. Don't worry if you do it twice, it's not going anywhere. It's just if you click twice, it will un-highlight the text. What you want to do it have ALL of the text in that little window highlighted.

Guest Che_mar_Cody Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Your foster girl, where's she coming from? Monica's Heart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckylpa Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 Your foster girl, where's she coming from? Monica's Heart? Yes, she is coming from Monica's Heart. We have been with Monica's Heart since around 2002. We like to have two dogs at a time. Our 6 year old girl died suddenly in October. We did not get another dog right away because one we were heart broken and two Sam has been having some medical problems. Thanks for help with the pics.
