Our New Chip Is Here..does Part Greyhound Count?


Recommended Posts

While we had no intention of adopting so soon after losing Lulu, I believe Lu had other intentions and had a paw in this. I met Tess at our adoption groups Expo in April, and well....just cannot explain why....but she's got a new home with us now.

 

Tess' Mom is a Greyhound, and her dad is a Borzoi/Wolfhound. From a distance where you cannot see the hairs on her lower back and haunches, she looks like a Grey wearing a fur wrap around her shoulders. Tess turned a year old in January, and looks like it will be a good fit for Kare Bear who has been missing Lulu terribly.

Oh Lord, that is one CUTE baby! I would LOVE a greyhound/wolfhound or deerhound cross someday! Those fuzzy faces just melt my heart.

She is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Ekko says you bet it counts :lol She's 1/2 Grey and 1/2 IW

 

 

I had been admiring Ekko from the first day I saw her pics here. She never fails to steal my breath away. Who would have thought we would have one much like her...and totally without intent!

Sooo cute! I want to give scritchies to that fuzzy butt! :wub:

 

She makes me think a bit of a greyhound who's turned into a (very sweet) werewolf! :colgate

 

I hope you'll post LOTS more pictures of her!

I am right there with ya! I am in love with the GH/fuzzy hound breed crosses, like Ned and Ekko...and now Tess.

Congratulations, she is beautiful.

 

ETA: Taking a closer look at that second pic, she DOES look like a brindle GH wearing a Wolfhound shawl. :lol

:wub: Beautiful girl there :wub:

 

I have to laugh when my friends nephew (about 7 years old at the time) knew my greyhounds, saw a IW and asked me why I shaved my dogs :rofl:rofl

Congratulations!! What a beauty she is! :wub: Our group takes in lots of "fuzzies" but I've never seen one with that sort of hair pattern......the hair around the upper part of her body DOES look like a fur wrap!! :lol:lol

I've got a grey/plott hound mix and I have been told he counts but he's not all warm and fuzzy like Ekko and Tess!!

He still counts as adorable though! Those big floppy earsies :wub: It's just more surface area to rub!
