Guest magic_snoots Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Hi there! I'm Andy and am hoping to adopt a Grey in the near future! The only thing missing is a fence (though with the weather recently it may take longer than I hoped)! I have a 7 month old borzoi named Albus, who is also a big fan of Greyhounds! The cats on the other hand... LOL! I have done an obsessive amount lots of research into the breed, and already have a gazehound vet but any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a Bunch!

smurfette Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) Welcome from Germany. Your excitement reminds me of myself... of a much younger self.... years ago. I'm looking forward to read about your progress and of course to see pictures of Albus and when he or she is there, your new pup. I also happen to like your name... Andy is living here, too... but he is a grey. 😉 Edited December 22, 2015 by smurfette Quote Sorry for butchering the english language. I try to keep the mistakes to a minimum.

EllenEveBaz Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Welcome! A fence is usually not necessary, but I think it makes having a dog so much easier. Out of curiosity, why a greyhound, instead of another borzoi or other sighthound?

Guest CryHavoc Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Welcome! I am another Borzoi owner. I've got three of them and an Afghan hound! we are not greyhound owners (yet, maybe someday!) but everyone has been very welcoming anyway. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your 'Zoi and your future Grey!

Guest magic_snoots Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Thanks for all the warm welcomes! Sorry for the late replies, Christmas kinda got in the way. @ellenevebaz As for why a grey and not another 'zoi is I have always wanted a velvety snooter. I love all sighthounds and hope to have had the chance to love all the breeds in my lifetime, but greyhounds were my first experience with them and have a special place in my heart. I will try to post some pictures as soon as I figure out how lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeedlenoseJake Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Yepp, his official name is Albus Dumbledog XD Awesome! So will you name your greyhound after HP too? Luna's my favorite (Luna Lovehound?) but HP lends itself to lots of dog names Quote Photographer in Phoenix, AZ www.northmountainphoto.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest magic_snoots Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 If I get a female her name would be Minerva (Minnie for short) but I'm at a loss for a male name I like (though if he's big and brindle I want to call him Hagrid lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
