ramonaghan Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) I meant to share these a while back but never got around to it. First, disclaimer: these are not my pics, so full credit goes to the photographer, whose watermark appears on all of them. I noticed it on some photos that Doolin and Willa's adoption group had posted on Greyhound Data and went digging on Facebook, et voila! I found lots of really cool photos from their Southland races. Here are a few favorites: Willa: Doolin: And the retired life: Edited March 9, 2023 by ramonaghan Quote Rachel with littermates Doolin and Willa, boss cat Tootie, and feline squatters Crumpet and Fezziwig.

ramonaghan Posted March 10, 2023 Author Share Posted March 10, 2023 @MercsmomMiss Elizabeth, I just noticed on the race card that Jupiter was in Doolin's race too! He's in black with the yellow #5.

EllenEveBaz Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 That girl is intense. Whereas Doolin just stretches out a little further in his stride and brings it home. Racing -- a family affair.

MerseyGrey Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 They are fantastic photos! The focused look on their faces is unreal!

GreyPoopon Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Love the photos. Also love the intensity in their eyes, which I think is even more dramatic because of the muzzles (can't see panting, etc.). There is one of Toodles on GH-D where she looks almost crazy intense. She has huge eyes, which adds to the impact.

Love the beautiful amber eyes, so intense. AKA Krazee Eyez Willa! (Curb Your Enthusiasm reference for any fans.) I wish there were public pics going back when Johnny and Sweep raced. It would be so cool to see them in action too. Sweep wasn't good enough for Southland ("just out for a stroll with her friends" was the quote from Dick, I believe ), but this photographer also has photos from several FL tracks before they closed.

Mercsmom Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 How wonderful to see my boy in action! I haven't gotten around to looking up his race videos yet. I find it hella amusing that you can see his scaly elbows in the picture. A couple of weeks of Aquaphor and they're much better. Thank you!!!! Quote Momma to Jupiter.
