Billy
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hope Billy has recovered from the fitting, if Epilepsy is diagnosed check out the Phyllis Croft Foundation for Canine Epilepsy (PCFCE) on the web which is apparently very good. Good luck and best wishes. Julie.

I have just had an awful phone call from Billy's owner - they have just got back from a walk and Billy has started fitting and is not well. I have advised them to get him to the emergency vets and I am awaiting news. I am so worried and am keeping my fingers crossed x

Sid
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Hi Phoebe Its really early days yet and you sound like you're going the right way 🙂 My new girl Lucy heard a firework on Saturday night and again most nights this week and is really scared to go out after dark so I'm trying to do her last walk early then take her into the garden in the dark with some liver then back quickly into the house to try to make it a nice relaxing experience. I have her on a harness and you could find you have more control especially if Sid panics and tries to run for home (and no pressure on his neck too) .. just keep doing little and often and you might find he's happier walking if you can take him in the car to a nice country park where there are lots of smells to tempt him ... greys don't usually do any town walking in training so everything is scarey for them 🙁 Finding another geyhound friend is an excellent idea and GRWE and RGT have walks that will mean you can meet up with lots of other greyhounds 🙂 GRWE's forum is The Hound Lounge so you could always join that and put a request on it too 🙂 My training class is on the south of Bham close to J3 of the M42, I'd always suggest you come to our special greyhound classes for at least your 4 free sessions if only to get an idea of how greys need to be understood and trained as we have had some greys scared witless by well meaning owners taking them to 'real dog' classes and those trainers not understanding ex-racing greys. or just ring me for a chat. Best wishes Juliex

Were so excited waiting for a phone call letting us know if the beautiful little pea likes cats and if she will be ours, we can't sleep, .. Every pooch at the kennels was beautiful, there really is something special about the greyhound, they are truly like no other dog breed. Xx
