Weekend Hound Blogging: Tripping the Mouth Daphtastic

by James Brush on February 4th, 2007 | Go to comments

We’ve been having work done on our floors this week, so we’ve had to send the pups to doggy daycare. Joey and Phoebe go twice a week, but Daphne has never gone. In the past we’ve tried to board her, and she spent the whole time cowering in a corner panting.

Not anymore. The new Daphne runs and plays with the other dogs. The new Daphne likes to go to daycare. I suspect it’s partially the influence of Joey, who also likes to run and play with other dogs. Still, it’s amazing that after four and a half years, our little spook is still learning to be a dog, taking mostly baby steps, but sometimes full greyhound strides.

Go, Daphne.

And cheers to The Family Guy for this little exchange (paraphrasing):

Stewie (the baby): You’ll wind up in a dumpster with a bunch of unwanted greyhounds.

Brian (the alcoholic dog): Hey, that’s not funny! That’s our holocaust!

Want to make a fast friend by saving a greyhound in Central Texas? Check these pups out. Or go here to find a greyhound near you. You can also go here to find out why greyhounds are running for their lives.

If you have dogs who need proven leadership, go here to find a cat.
