Guest Trena Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 First time grey owner here. Ever since I was a volunteer at my local greyhound rescue many years ago, I've wanted one of these guys. Finally that time has arrived. We gave her the name of Shiloh, her racing name was P Kay Sweetmarry. She is a very sweet 4 year old red brindle from Florida. Although we have had her only a week, she seems to be a fast learner. However we are still working on some issues. One of them being separation issues. How do you download a image? The way I tried, this site would not accept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnF Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hi and welcome from SW England. Red Brindles are awesome. Sep. anxiety will take some time, say 4 months, because they have probably nver been fully alone. 5 mins, 10 mins, 20mins, half an hour, 3/4 hour and so on. The point being that they eventually know for sure that you'll be back. Pictures? I think you have to wait a little while before you can embed photos in the text. But if you host them on a sharing site and just copy and paste the photo's URL, people can click on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Trena Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Welcome to you and Shiloh! I used to live in Greensboro, and get my hounds from GFNC. I've always heard good things about Project Racing home, too. Now we're in Virginia. How is the separation anxiety going? My fiance works at a vets office in the kennel. So she has been taken her to work with her every day. This was at the suggestion of a vet tech, so she could get into a routine. But I'm afraid that when the season gets busy and she has to be left at home again, that it will start all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastpointydoge Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Our dogs are from the same breeder! Pretty neat. They both have the prefix "P Kay." My guy is P Kay Ruger. Your girl is very pretty. I love the brindle coat color. Quote Sarah with P Kay Ruger "Rogue" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EllenEveBaz Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 But I'm afraid that when the season gets busy and she has to be left at home again, that it will start all over again. I'd be worried about this, too. Have you been able to do some alone training?
