Greyhounds in Gettysburg 2011

I just returned from Gettysburg. I had a greyt time, even though I left the kiddos at home. Maggie just doesn't travel well. She cries the entire time in the car. I met lots of nice people and their dogs. So much greyhound merchandise, I could have spent a fortune. I bought each dog a new collar, a tag clip and a new greyhound sticker for the car.

There was an adoption group for Afghan sight hounds.  The puppies were so cute.

I also attended a greyhound group ghost tour.  The greyhounds were very well behaved.  It was probably a good thing that we did not see any ghosts!!!

I really enjoyed Gettysburg.  Thanks to all for a super event.

How a Greyhound Takes Off His Jacket

Here is a cute video of Panther removing his jacket after a walk. I have had to patch this jacket several times because he bites holes in the coat. I try to remove his jacket before he does, but today I thought I would catch it on video.

Do you have any cute videos of your pets?  Include your link so I can check it out!!!

Spring?

We went for a walk today without jackets. Does this mean that spring has sprung? We've been fooled before.

Greyt day for a little butt sniffing.

Lots of walking.

And plenty of sunshine.  How do you enjoy a spring day?  Let me know.

Moocher

Panther is the biggest moocher. He will place his head on your arm and give you the sad eyes until you give him a bite.

Let me know what sort of "tricks" your greys will do for food.

Greyhound Pedicure

Today was greyhound pedicure day.  I use a rotary trimmer. 

Maggie quite enjoys it.  She will nap through the entire pedicure. 

Panther on the other hand...

I can only do 2 or 3 nails and he will run and hide.  Today he tucked his feet up under his body so I couldn't get at them. 

I'll just try a little every day.  Do you use a rotary tool or regular nail trimmers?  Post a comment and let me know.

Hope you have a greyt week!

New Grey

We have a new member of the "Grey" family.  He/she came home with us on Saturday from Nittany Greyhounds.  Panther had to check him out!

Panther is so silly.  He had to bark at the new dog.  Every time he goes outside, he has to smell the new dog.  Maggie doesn't seem to notice the new addition.  We need to give the new "dog" a name.  Send me an e-mail with suggestions!

Ruff Week

The weather this week has been weird to say the least.  Sunday started out at 55 degrees with rain and ended with 12 to 15 inches of snow.  Is this March???  Panther decided to just give in and take a nap!

Maggie's had enough as well.  She's content to relax on her bed with her favorite chewie.
