Guest footballboy3 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 My wife and I will be picking up our new retired racer this thursday night! We live in Upstate SC and we have a chihuahua/whippet mix named Regal that my wife rescued almost 5 years ago. I've grown to love Regal and the quiet manners of the sighthound breed. Our new boy Drake is brindle and very tall. We were just married back in march and this is our first pet together. i am verrrrry excited!

3greytjoys Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Welcome to Greytalk! Congratulations on your upcoming Greyhound adoption! This is greyt news during an exciting year for you both. Great that Regal will soon have hound company. We love pictures around here, so we'll look forward to seeing your new boy (and Regal too). Do you happen to know Drake's racing name?

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest footballboy3 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 heres some pics of our new boy Drake. Just got him last night and he's a sweetheart. Our little chihuahua/whippet mix is having some issues with having a new big little brother but I think it'll just take some time for them both to adjust. I'm looking forward to starting some training..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
