Hi From A New Owner In Pa!


Recommended Posts

Hey gang!

My husband David and I (Monica) just adopted our first 2 greyhounds.....

 

A 5 yr old male named Sydney, and a 4 yr old female named June.

They had been at the rescue the longest so we felt we needed to take them both home with us.

 

I found this forum in hopes of learning as much as I can.

Congrats and welcome! What a wonderful thing to do to take them both! We'd love to see pictures of them, hint hint!

That was the picnic. We weren't able to make it. That park is so nice.

Well, for the first time we let the hounds loose today after work in our yard.

We have an acre fully fenced in.

 

Omg- they tore it up! Especially June. She was running over and over.

The good thing was they kept coming back to us (we were standing in the middle of the yard).

 

It was awesome seeing them run at full speed. June gets up to speed faster, but Sidney quickly overtakes her. She then bumps him lol

 

Very fun watching them interact while running.

Man, I didn't know about this?

What's the best way to keep up on greyhound meet and greets?

 

Glad we met... Although I'm not sure who you were... I met so many!

Check out the Greyhound Angels Facebook page- they're always posting events there! The Cool Dog event is posted in the events forum here, too.

And if I remember correctly, we spoke about the traffic lead attached to Topper's leash. Maybe.

Yes! I remember that conversation :nod

 

Weird... I can't get into the events section... says I don't have access. Maybe I'm too new?
