Introducing Lakota

Hi Everyone,

I've made some posts already, so I thought it might be time to introduce myself. My name is Marlene and in March 2010 and adopted Lakota. She has adapted wonderfully to being a princess (I mean pet ;)) We live in mid-town Toronto, where Lakota gets to many dog parks and has so many canine and human friends. I'm not sure what else to say, so, if there is anything y'all would like to know, just ask.

 

Now, I've heard that there are rules and photo's are a requirement, so here we are:

 

This is my first greyhound Ceasar (pic taken in 1969):

Now for the princess Lakota Drive:

Welcome! I take Phoenix and Treasure to TO for walks every once in a while, especially in my old neighbourhood of Riverdale. Lots of good dogs places in TO :).

She is adorable :blush:blush Have you had greys for 40 years?

 

Thanks, I am fond of her.

Ceasar was our dog when I was a little girl. After he passed, we had mutts. We were living in Fort William (now part of Thunder Bay, Ontario) at that time, and I don't suppose it was really all that easy to get a greyhound. Mom said they had to drive to Winnipeg to get him (about a 8 hours drive with today's road; so it must have been a really long drive back then).

Hi and welcome from Ottawa! Lakota is a beautiful girl. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her and her friends at the dog park.

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

As mentioned pic of Ceasar is outstanding!

 

Lakota looks like a sweetie. Hope to meet you on a future trip to TO or possibly if you pass through WPG (which may be more likely - ;) ).

Really? I would love it if you could PM me their contact info. She is such a sweet heart, I felt certain she was well taken care of before I got her.

I posted it a while ago on the GRA board, if you're on there.

 

Keith, when I go to the 'peg, it's only in the summer. I'll let you know the next time we are there.

I love the pic of your first Grey! Was he a blue? Did he race? FABULOUS photo!

Yes, he was a blue. He never race, mom got him as a puppy, and I don't know what his lineage is. That stuff was not important to mom, she was bringing home a pet.
