Another air sign - a Gemini! But yes, that’s me, too! It’s not really a hard decision when these guys have been through hell and are only alive because someone saw them, and the lady who runs the rescue took them on and worked very hard to get them out of there.
I think they’re definitely adjusting better that way! They seem comforted by being in the mini-pack together and almost always curl up near or on each other.You *needed* two, sort of their own “pack within a pack”
Hmmmm, then again, maybe you need the same number of Whippets as Greyhounds...ya know, for balance in your life!
Thank you, you should see Polly off leash in the woods...grace, power, speed, control, joy, all on glorious display. I don’t let her off leash on weekends when there are more people around (especially since Covid, ill equipped, noisy, littering people, passing in a cloud of AXE body spray -seriously, why, oh why, would you bring that into the woods?!). That particular hike is five miles from my front door and has free parking; it leads to a beautiful 50 foot waterfall with many cascades. Polly and I sit at the base of the falls drinking in the sights and sounds while we share a snack. Bliss!@Menagerie Mama She’s so beautiful! What a wonderful place to go walking.
I must be disallusioned.. if that's a word, or I haven't had enough coffee yet. But those don't look like whippets to me... they're Lounge Lizards!!!!! Adorable~
Sigh, the majority of my thousands of photos of Portia and Polly make them look like lounge lizards, because it’s difficult to capture a Whippet in motion on filmI must be disallusioned.. if that's a word, or I haven't had enough coffee yet. But those don't look like whippets to me... they're Lounge Lizards!!!!! Adorable~
They are lazy little bums and sleep sooo much! And here I was bracing myself for more energetic pups.I must be disallusioned.. if that's a word, or I haven't had enough coffee yet. But those don't look like whippets to me... they're Lounge Lizards!!!!! Adorable~
Even when we took them to the dog park, they tapped out after 45 minutes max of playing and exploring, lol.
The dog came running up while I was trying to get them in the car and had his back fur up and was growling. He wanted to get them. I put them behind me and said, “NO,” as firmly and strongly as I could — twice. The whole time the guy is calling this dog, but of course he’s ignoring him. I couldn’t have safely taken my eyes off him to get the whippets in the car, so I just waited with them behind me. Fortunately he decided to back down and nothing happened. I love these little guys so much and I’ll do whatever I can to protect them. Can’t stand off-leash dogs in the neighborhood!
