10 years with Lila!


Recommended Posts

10 years ago today a very sweet, kind of shy, almost 4 year old greyhound came into my home. We were both a bit worried about what we got ourselves into that first night, but we quickly found our groove and became the best of friends. Except for being a bit stubborn and opinionated, she really has been a perfect girl and she’s still in really good shape for her age. I am so grateful that I’ve had her in my life for this long. :wub:

Here’s Lila is today enjoying our day.  Please excuse the unkempt looking fur, she’s in the middle of the Big Shed and since she’s a very furry girl it’s quite dramatic. :D Her new furs are coming in cinnamon sugar color. :inlove

Actually that's a pretty good description of a whole lot of us!

I just broke down and turned the air on. I hate to close the windows but extreme heat warnings kinda made it a good decision. 

Lila, whozagudgurl?!!  You keep on keeping on and keep Mistress whipped into shape. Congratulations sweetie.

Congreytulations on your anniversary, ladies!  That 2nd pic, with those bright, beautiful eyes and graceful lines of the head -- even her paw is beautiful!

Her new furs are coming in cinnamon sugar color.

My girl Eve was a bossy an opinionated light red fawn.  When her white hairs began multiplying into the cinnamon sugar look, one of her nicknames became the Frosted Flake.

I do love her cute little feet. Frosted Flake is awesome!

Happy (belated) Gotcha Day Lila!

Cinnamon-coloured sugar is all the rage for redheads--Ivy's sporting the same look. She also has frosting on the back of her front legs and the front of her back legs. It looks like she was straddling a white paint roller. :lol:
