Hello From Cleveland, Oh

Hello all!

 

I am new to GreyTalk so I thought I should introduce myself. My name is Sydney and I live in Parma Heights, OH with my husband, John, my greyhound, Monarch, my Italian Greyhound, Sophia, and my two cats, Minkah & Zoe. We adopted 7 year old Monarch (now 8 since May) the weekend before Thanksgiving 2008. She was only in the kennel for about 3 weeks before I snatched her up... She had a lot of dibs put on her, a kennel favorite at the time. I think the extensive amount of volunteer work for Greyhound Adoption of Ohio finally paid off because I was the one to bring her home! She is a beautiful brindle girl who happens to only have 3 legs. After her track injury and terrible amputation (they left a stub when they should have taken the whole shoulder) they bred her. She had 15 puppies that I hope to one day adopt one of them. Below are are some photos of my beautiful girl!

If I could have adopted another dog I would have brought home Treasure! Every time I would do a GAO event I would bring Treasure because she ia such an awesome dog! I'm glad she got a great home but I am sad that you are so far away... You have to keep me informed on how she is doing!

 

You should try to make a trip down for our huge event in August, Canine Fun Days and Greyhound Reunion. I know everyone would love to see her!

 

Welcome!! lexie is from gao. we live on the east side of cleveland. I am planning to go to the greyhound reunion. Maybe, we can meet

 

Oh I will be there! I'm the Vendor Coordinator, so I will be around both days. Hopefully I'll see you there!

Hi and Welcome from Arizona! Monarch is a beauty. Hard to believe she was bred after an amputation but what do I know?

I know Bow :P ! She is great! Is she getting better on a leash? I took her to a few things that I did for GAO while she was at the kennel. Beautiful girl! Are you planning on going to The Great Lakes Brewing Company's Dog Days of Summer on Sunday? GAO is going to have a booth there. I will be going but I haven't decided if I will be taking Monarch or one of the dogs from the kennel. I like bringing adoptable dogs to events because I feel like it is good to get a dog that needs a home in front of people.
