Hi muddypaws(sorry Paul) I think I may need the address of the counselling as I'm so addicted to g/hounds. None of use will ever get a cure. Speak in the future if you ever get over this problem. Sylvxxx

Liam

Had a sneaky few minutes in with Liam yesterday afternoon, he really is a most delightful, friendly and playful boy. He got so excited to have some company and had lovely cuddles, then he decided we should play with his rope toy for a while. Bless him, he is such a handsome and affectionate boy - surely his very own sofa can't be too far away now. Cuddles sweetheart. xx

Arthur (Ice)
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Tracey.We used to have a deaf boy - non greyhound - and we never found his deafness much of a problem, in fact, after a while we used to forget he was deaf ! We did'nt use any pre-arranged hand signals...but just improvised as we went along...and soon realised which ones worked best.In fact.we both used several different ones for a particular command, and he always seemed to understand what we were saying. If you think about it... we tend to use hand signals all the time with our dogs...probably as much as vocal commands !!! Our boy used to take a lead from our other dogs and usually knew what was going on. Even when he was lying or standing with his back to them or us, he knew when one of us moved...don't know if he could feel the slight vibrations in the floor or if it was his sixth sense. So l would'nt become to pre-occupied with his deafness...but you do need to bear it mind in certain situations. Good luck...everything will work out fine.Oh... and you will adore him...he is totally gorgeous, l'm sure many of us are very envious of you.XXX

This will be our fifth dog we have adopted before ever meeting or seeing in real life so it is a little daunting but I go with my instinct on how a dog looks (and some advice!) and so far so good. I just wonder who Arthur is going to team up with as Belle and Sparky are joined at the hip. Hope is a loner, Fire is a sh*t and Noble does his own thing too. If Kate comes round tomorrow for walkies then I will video the chaos which is lead time with Belle leaping like a gazelle. A sight to behold I promise you.
