Well, we picked up our newest edition to the family today!!! She is a little red 2 year old. She needs to put on some weight at only 51 lbs. Her name is Blossom which Andrea really doesnt like but I think its gonna stay lol. Definitely timid and shy but she is pretty quick to warm up to people and doesnt mind strangers petting her (she doesnt like the sounds of bicycles though). http://home.comcast.net/~tas04/blossom.jpg Here is a link to a picture of our new girl laying on her pillow. Sorry for the size but I am about to zonk out myself lol (thus the url link). Supposively she gets up around 530 am lol. ------------------

Congrads on the new addition to the family Tim.  Have fun with the early morning ritual. I'm sure it will be well worth it once she gets settled in and use to you all. Glad you all decided to rescue her.  Dave & Terri ------------------

Thanks guys! She is settling right in which is great. If anyone doesnt believe the whole thing about greyhounds being 45 mph coach potatoes, they should meet Blossom. She gets up to eat, go out and when we go for a walk and then goes back to bed. I took her for a walk tonight and when we were coming back decided to open her up just a little bit. She was going pretty good and then she saw the door was open to the house and tucked her head to go! Luckily we werent that far but she was dragging me, dang dog is fast lol!------------------

I had two Dobies we got from 1) rescue and 2) the pound. Sweet dogs. There are lots of rescue sites for various breeds. Anyone considering a dog should check them out. Most rescue places have histories and personality profiles on the dogs. Nice move. ------------------
