Hi From Philly!

Hi! My name is Adelaide and I live in Philadelphia (PA, not Mississippi) and I have 2 Australian shepherds, an iggy and 3 greyhounds. Here are the hounds.

 

Allistair is a 9.5 month old puppy. His leg is quite deformed--it's not a photoshop trick--it is the result of an untreated fracture. He is going to the U. of Penn Hospital Monday to have a surgery to straighten it, so please send healing thoughts to my little guy! I have had him for about 2 months.

 

Helga is 10.5 years old, from a horrible breeding farm in WV. She LOVES walks and having a real bed to sleep on. She couldn't be sweeter and she is so gentle. I got her the same time as Allistair.

 

Nigel is a two year old who was raised from puppy hood in a home. His first Mom took a bad hit when the economy went south, and had to bring her 3 hounds back to the adoption program. She was an excellent Mom to Nigel--he came with pretty much perfect manners! He is the tallest hound I have ever seen. I have had him since April 11.

 

Sophia is a 10 year old (give or take) iggy -- I love this picture. I have had her since January of 2005. She has absolutely no teeth whatsoever.

 

Previous to these guys I had 2 other lovely hounds, Trish and Leo, as well as a number of lovely Aussies waiting at the bridge.

Yeah I admit I am smitten. When I met him I said to myself "Oh, crap!" Because I knew he was gonna be my next hound, and I already had 5. . . .
