scullysmum Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) ...Oooops, not that one! This one... Say a big GT welcome to our new boy Johnny (Lenson Johnny) he's a sweetheart as I am sure you can see, he has just turned 4 years old having retired from an illustrious racing career! We brought him home from Croftview RGT yesterday afternoon and he has so far showed very little interest in cats (that may yet change), very much interest in food (I suspect that won't change!) and an enormous interest in bunnies! He had not yet attempted to climb the stairs or get on the sofa (he is allowed) and after a couple of pathetic barks when we went up to bed he settled down for the night with no noise and no accidents. This morning he briefly met some of the doggy friends he will be seeing much more of in the future and was an absolute gentleman. We are smitten with him already, so all that is left is to thank my sweet baby girl for sending us a superstar.

scullysmum Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Congratulations. We had a dog named John E back a few years. I wasn't sure I wanted to keep the name...didn't want to sound like I was yelling for a prophylactic! He was originally called Droopys Robbie, but I'm not sure I like that any better, in any case he will soon have dozens of nicknames, he's already got "big ears" and "Mr velvet bottom" Quote <p>"One day I hope to be the person my dog thinks I am"Sadi's Pet Pages Sadi's Greyhound Data PageMulder1/9/95-21/3/04 Scully1/9/95-16/2/05Sadi 7/4/99 - 23/6/13 CroftviewRGT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
