I Need A Snuggle Buddy

I need my very own snuggle buddy.  I like to be really close to my human and maybe even share a pillow.  Foma doesn't allow me to sleep with her so this is the only proof that I will snuggle with you, if you let me.

You could wake up to these eyes every day.  

Post Picnic Fun

The picnic was fun but I wanted you to know that I had some fun the next morning too.  Foma got us up early from those wonderful large dog beds.  Breakfast was served.

Then it was off for a morning stroll around Solomon's Island.  There I am with my foster siblings walking Foma.  Lots of other pups came out to walk their humans too.

After all the walking and running around there was time to do what greyhounds do best. Nap. Thanks lamb chop for being my pillow.

Finally it was time to load up and head back home.  Nope we're not tired at all.  Just resting our eyes a bit.

Picnic Time

Foma loaded us pups into the car and we were on the road again.  It was time for the GEGR Annual Picnic.

There were greyhounds and people galore.

I got to see my travel buddy Boomer again.  He is still so handsome. Here we are with Ms Kym.

At the end of the day there was a bonfire.  I was a little worried at first when the humans began setting everything on fire but it was warm and comfy on a chilly night.

I had a fun time at the picnic.  Next year I want to come back with my forever family.  If you can get your application in now, we will have the whole year to make plans.  

You need some help?

Do you need some help with the stairs Melvin?  I can show you how its done.  Maybe you just need a kiss on the forehead.  There ya go.

Umm, We're Hungry

Foma, Dolly said its time to eat.  I would be happy to wait longer but if' it is time to eat, I sure am hungry.  Well we'll just lay here and wait for you to move...........

Family Outing

Foma did that thing again where she gets us pups up early on a Saturday, shines up our teeth and nails and checks behind our ears.  Then it was off to the playground.  But this time there was tons of people and other dogs on the playground.  We didn't get to run and play at all. Instead we hung out with our other greyhound friends.  Foma said it was May Day for Mutts!  I'm sure she was not referring to me as a 'mutt'. Not this girl. uumf

So I did what I do best, I smiled at all the people who came to visit.  This lady said for sure her next dog will be a greyhound. We sold her!

This is me doing my best sit for this lady.  Ssshhh don't tell Foma.  She thinks I don't know how to sit cus I don't do it for her.  But this lady was impressed with how skilled I was.  

All that smiling and sitting and working the cuteness was tiring.  To my delight they gave us the biggest water bowl I've ever seen.  Why it was big enough to stand in and cool your feet off.

Even better was when you could get the giant water bowl to yourself and just stretch out.   Aahhhh that was the best!

On the way to the car, Foma took me to see really big dogs she called horses.  They smelled funny and didn't seem all that happy to meet us.  Guess they didn't have a giant water bowl to lay round in all day. Sorry fellas.

Don't forget if you met me at May Day for Mutts and want to be my forever family hurry up and get your application into the good folks at GEGR.  Just tell them you'd like to meet Shammy again.  Could you get me one of those giant water bowels?  I promise you can cool your feet off too if you don't take up too much room. 

My Vacation at GIG - Part 2

Ok, a few people have been asking me to finish my vacation story.  It was a fun time and the 2nd day was a long adventure for us pups.  It started normal enough.  We got our breakfast in the nice hotel room with the huge gigantic dog beds.  Then it was off for a leisurely walk around the grounds of the hotel.  Then it was back for the morning naps.....right?

Oh no, no nap again.  It was off to another battlefield walk.  That nice guide was there talking about the stone people again.  Lots of people and pups came along again.   We got to climb that really big hill.

And the stone people were there too.  There was even a big dog in stone.

 

 I tried to listen more that day but still had time to just take in the sights.  That's me looking out on a big field wondering what everyone else was looking at.  i didn't see any rabbits or squirrels.

Sometime I just held up Dolly's head. She wanted to take a nap too.

Once the walk was over we got a quick nap in the car. Then it was back to the place with all the stuff for sell.  Foma went to another one of those talky things where all us pups just took another nap.

 Then it was outside to spend some quality time with my friends.  Well mostly we just slept in the nice sunshine.  Bet you can figure out which one is me.

That night we went to a big outdoor tent.  It was really windy but I didn't mind.  I was more focused on the food.  Hey can I have some of that?

This was a fun weekend.  I'm glad I had time to spend with my foster brother and sister and I got to see some of my other friends.  I love the hotel place with the really big dog beds.  Wish we had more time to nap in them.  Foma says we don't have those at her house. Mmmm ok.  Well, good bye GIG.  I sure hope my forever family will bring me back again next year.
