Nancy here. It's been a long time since I last wrote, nearly 2 months. In those two months the Carolina Greyhound Connection has gotten off the ground with two fosters, and I'm dividing my time between two groups. WHEW! I can't complain, though, because now I have twice as many fosters to moon over! Speaking of fosters, BUCKY IS GOING HOME SOON! One of my co-workers is adopting him, and I couldn't be happier for him. He's going to be very happy. That leaves us with just Onyx, and after that a break from fostering. How strange it will be to only have five dogs in the house!
All of the Lassiter Hounds are doing fine. Bo has had dental surgery scheduled twice, but because our vet has stopped running accounts for clients we have had to reschedule. I feel like a bad momma for it, but we just don't have an extra $125 to hand over all at one time. Profile is still Profile...he ate the leg of my favourite pajama pants, has peed everywhere he can, and is still "claiming" the girls each time they go outside...and we still love him. Hunk has learned to sing, and leads our crew (along with Momma) in a rousing chorus at least once a day. (When I figure out how to put .wav files on a website I'll post the harmonious result.) I'm just waiting for the cats to chime in!
Jeany is coming out of the back more and more, which is good, but she's still our obnoxious little blonde bombshell overall. Her fifth birthday is coming up next Friday, April 5th, and I can hardly believe it. Where does the time go?? April 29th will be her second gotcha day, and I'm sure she'll get to GO in the CAR with a LEASH at least once on that day. Liz, otherwise known as the Canine Sherman Tank, is not only hanging in there at 11 and 3/4, but is bulldozing through a world that she can barely see, experimenting and learning about her environment in the shark-like fashion of putting her MOUTH on everything. She's also developed a very cute playbow that's followed by VICIOUS barking and snapping...all in play, of course, and only with the humans...but if she had teeth we'd be in trouble!!
Lots of opportunities coming up for Meet & Greets, etc...so I'm sure there will be more excitement to write about soon!
