Celebrating Super Seniors

Zeke looks like he is winking cheekily at the camera :inlove. I’m really enjoying all these photos of other people’s pups. Buddy turns nine in November so I don’t think he quite qualifies as a senior yet but I hope he stays happy and healthy like all your hounds seem to be!

Nice to see you, Nadine/Smurfette!  Andy looks so big and handsome.  How tall is he?  

Hi there.

Andy is not that super big. He is 72cm (+/- 28 inch?) and 32 kg when he was younger. But I have to agree he is a handsome lad. ❤

Sorry for butchering the english language. I try to keep the mistakes to a minimum.

Over the years many of my greyhounds reached 12 or beyond. Richy passed at 12 years 6 months, Tucker passed at 12 years 11 months, Bug passed at 13 years 6 months, and for those of you who were on greytalk in 2005 & 2006 you may remember Susie who we found on greytalk and adopted 3 weeks before she turned 14. She passed at 15 years 1 month.

Still with us is Dee who turned 12 October 9th.

My Buddy and Andy are half brothers, both sired by Droopys Maldini. Andy is a bit older and probably a lot more sensible 😍

Age has made him a nice and friendly gentlehound. Andy always was a strong boy with a no nonsense attitude. He took the term lead aggression to a whole new level. Plus he was the bite first, ask questions later and we have no need for prisoners kind of guy. I worked long and hard with him until I gained his trust and he decided to let me handle things like encountering dogs on our walk. All the hard work pays off now. Andy takes his walks through the woods without lead. I can trust him to 99% (1% is his love for pretty lady hounds where he decides recall is overrated :D).
