Our Many Faces Of Osteo And Canine Cancer

As many of you know, the Miss Nellie Auction is right around the corner. As October and the auction approach, I find myself thinking about the hounds I've lost to Osteo over the years and reflecting on the many advances that have been made and those to come through continued research that will surely improve the treatment for the carcinomas that affect our beloved hounds.

 

Greytalk has always been a family, lovingly held together by our collective love of the breed and the friends we have made here as well as the hounds we have known and grown to love. It is a place for sharing ourselves, our hounds, information and caring for one another with love, joy, sadness and laughter. As a group, when a hound is lost to one of us, it is lost to all of us. I think there are very few in this Greytalk family who have not been affected by Osteosarcoma or one of the cancers that steal our hounds.

 

Please join Hope for Hounds in the Miss Nellie Auction this year and please share your faces of osteo and canine cancers as we remember those lost to us and those fighting now.

We have lost two to osteo, Jamey in 2011 after an amputation and 27 month fight. We lost Master in June 2015, only 2 days after diagnosis due to a broken neck of the femur due to osteo.

Miss Rose (Don't Roses Bloom) was with us for such a short time. She was a senior returned to our group with a lot of different medical problems. She had a tumor in her lung. Gustopher P absolutely adored her and acted as her protector, even though she needed no protection, and was ALWAYS at her side. She was such a sweet little old lady

Lost back October 2012, our dear FedX after an almost two year comfortable time of palliative care with osteo. A true hero who never wanted to give up.

Miz Foxy - I'ma Foxy Dawg has been gone for 8 years, but her legacy lives on. Foxy was the driving force behind Hope for Hounds. My promise to her was to never give up helping to find a cure. So, every year I drive everyone crazy to help put on the Miss Nellie Auction. One day Foxy, one day we will win!

The ever beloved Duchess of Blackwood. Marc, you have always known how the Miami Hound House has cherished Her Grace......I will always maintain that Gustopher P is sitting at her knee, adoring her.

My beautifully delicious magnolia Miss Isabella (Kiowa Cee Carol), the thug of the Miami Hound House and the bestie of Gustopher P Jones. Her tiny 48 lbs of punk was forever pushing the other hounds around. Her more common household name was Isabellaknockitoff... I do so miss her tiny little self. Lost to osteo.
