Barkings of a GREYHOUND: October 2008

"Hello yeah yeah I know "bad dog" hey I am Mama J's girl what do you expect. Mama J got cranky at me for not keeping my blog up to date so she has sent me to my mat with the computer and told me not to leave till I have finished (ahhhh the pigs ear is calling me but no I must be strong and stay here I have seen want Mama J does to Big Bro A and I DON'T want to be sent to his room owwww NASTY). Ok well I have recovered from my injury and all is well in the health department. We have a new foster dog her name is Milly and I quite like her SHE evens "sits" and shakes paws-goody 2 shoes. "

This is Milly

"We actually get along quite well unfortunately she has a bit of a problem with other dogs. They frighten her alot and Mama J has been protecting her all week and has not let her off the lead (Milly has a bit of a problem with snapping ) but yesterday everything changed. Jarmin my friend the cocker spaniel came to the park and it was just the 3 of us and Mama J let Milly off lead low and behold she started to play with Jarmin they chased each other all over the park and then another dog arrived then another and before 2 long Milly was socialising with all of them mind you Mama J was always beside Milly just incase. Mama J was soooooo proud of her good behaviour she can't wait to show Papa E."

This is a photo of Me, Jarmin and Milly having a rest.

"Mama J did not read her emails very well and we missed out on going on the greyhound walk. Mama J thought it was today so she had us all packed up in the car ready to go then she decided just to check she knew where we were going. The walk was YESTERDAY morning not Sunday morning. Here are some photos of the last walk we did in early October. This one was at Petrie.

I so desparately want a "forever home" I don't like moving house to house umm thats about all I can tell them Grace can I please go back to my mat I feeling a little nervous there are alot of people out there what if they don't like me"
"Hey they will have to deal with me. Okay go on back to your mat"

(watching Milly go back to her mat)- (in a whisper) "Psssst no wonder Mama J calls her Silly Milly"

"Anyway thats about it for the moment I am going to see if I can sniff out some photos of some of Mama J's work"
