Nine years ago today.....

Islay greyhound and I drove from Gloucestershire to Luton to look at a couple of rescue greyhounds who needed homes (well I drove, Islay was just a passenger....!!)

We saw a gorgeous fawn boy who was very tempting, but then I was shown a little scrawny black and white girl who was so ugly that I thought nobody would want her. So I took her home, and suddenly she became absolutely beautiful in my eyes and has always remained so

Happy gotcha day Flick, I love you very much!

I bet she just adores you too!

I think shes pretty! Her face markings are really unique :biggrin3:

I wrote my car off this morning so we have spent the whole day cuddled up having greyhound hugs - I think she thinks I’m a moveable hot water bottle

I don't believe she was ever ugly, no way, just look at that little face! Happy anniversary day to you both.

Thank you CT I am absolutely fine I skidded on black ice and smashed my Landrover against a hedge - I am absolutely gutted, it was a T reg so quite old but a fantastic example for it's age, I won't get another like it

I will say she does look gorgeous in that picture - she didn't quite look the same when I saw her in person, but she has always looked like that to me

She is very graceful

I don't think there is such thing as an ugly greyhound!!!!

Gorgeous dog.
Hope you're OK after the accident, it can sometimes take a few days for any injury to show itself. Take care.

 

[Pinkvboots]

I don't think she is ugly just unusually marked but pretty sorry to hear about your accident at least your safe and okay that's the main thing

Glad you’re ok after your accident.

Another one who doesn’t think she’s ugly! I think your dogs really land on their feet when they come and live with you. X

Thank you TheresaW that is lovely of you to say that

And thank you all for your kind comments about the accident, I am feeling a bit frazzled this evening trying to sort everything out but I know that is only temporary - physically I still feel fine fortunately

Can I say sod? Massive shame if it's ruined, but glad you're okay.

My mate's ex-racer greyhound has made himself very comfortable and now crawls under the duvet and puts his head on the pillow! Funny boy!

Back on the forum after a busy weekend and can't believe I missed a greyhound pic.

She is lovely, not ugly at all. Glad you're all ok.

Belated Happy Gotcha Day!

I've always thought she looked cute.
