racindog Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Rockets mom said Phoenix has a French Fry Festival on April 20. In a previous post about that, it was decided by several GT'ers that April 20 would be a good day to buy your greyhound some French Fries and share them in honor of Rocket and his obsession with French Fries. Well I keep missing his official day but since he would want any excuse to spoil your hounds more some of us have also been celebrating on Nat'l French Fry Day on July 13th. So its that time again! Another greyt excuse to spoil your hounds and honor Rocket who remains a much loved presence here on GT. Recently in fact a beautiful houndie at Camp Broodie has enjoyed her first french fry and is now in the cult with the rest of us: So be sure and not miss the chance to spoil your hounds again in honor of Rocket. Many places including McDonalds are even giving away fries that day. Lucky dogs! Lucky dogs! Yum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yum Unfortunately, the "baby" (Sadie Rose) attacked Petunia about 10 days after she arrived requiring lots of sutures and a trip to the E-Vet. She did not work out here but I am happy to report that she was adopted by someone and is living somewhere in California. We also determined that she was totally deaf and we think that she was actually in fear of many normal things. We picked up on her deafness, but she needed a home without other dogs since she was always in a defensive mode trying to protect herself. We hear that she's doing well. I;m sure her new home will provide lots of fries. This house has a long tradition of hounds who loved french fries. If we had a sign out front it might say "Over 2 Billion Served." Kate preferred to sit nearby and guard the fries We also found that Starz loved french fries so we took every opportunity to have them. Even though she was only here for 6 weeks before going to the bridge, she never missed a chance at a french fry. Starz - working the system Petunia was just practicing for National French Fry Day 2 nights ago. (Older pic but same theme) I don't have a picture handy of Trolley with fries, but I will guarantee that there are fries in my hand, just out of the frame of this picture.

I love taking time to remember Rocket & Lexie and all our old friends. They will never be forgotten. Anyway give my love to all the fry hounds I know the Rocket Man will be happy to.
