You might have a Greyhound if…


Recommended Posts

I’ll start & others are invited to add theirs …

If the simple act of your dog standing up is considered note worthy, you might have a Greyhound. 
 

[Yes, that actually happens in in this house. BF calls out the rare sighting, “Su’s standing!”]

You can't get on the sofa.

There's a sudden pungent aroma.

the quickest way to the backyard dog door is over the end table and couch, and any people who might be sitting on said couch

You bought a bigger vehicle to accommidate them.

Your place on the couch/in bed is the far corner edge.

You eat PB&J so they can have the ONE food that doesn't upset their little tummy.:D

You might have a greyhound if you have more art, statues, jewelry or t-shirts with greyhounds on them.

I didn't know that t-shirts came without greyhounds on them.

You might have a greyhound if when you go to the vet, all the techs take turns coming in the exam room so they can get their fix.

You might have a greyhound if, as the pair of you take a walk, passers-by call out "where's his jockey?"

"Hey, is that a DEER??"

Your windows are generously decorated with SNART instead of suncatchers.

Your heart melts when they walk into the room or you watch them sleeping.

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

You might have a greyhound when you go to be every night with massive legs draped across you, and an occasional smell that could bring tears to ones eyes....

Liverwurst, bull pizzle, chicken feet, and lamb ears are all things one might find in your kitchen. :sick

Conversations about poop quality are a normal occurrence.

Chattering, roaching, trancing, and GSOD are all part of your vocabulary.

If - when you're at the grocery and the layout has been changed - you need to come up with different verbiage to describe what you're looking for because the Girls will be disappointed if you come home without "Shakey Cheese" - you might have a greyhound.

You contact customer services to double check that their peanut butter doesn't have xylitol in it.
