A few weeks ago my brother and SIL adopted a greyhound, his name is Arcadia (sp?) They brought him over for a visit and the cats freaked!!
He's a sweetie though!

Here he is



Then 2 days ago my niece comes over to visit with this sweet little girl she had just adopted, her name is Autumn and is 5 months old and I believe she is an english shepard

She's a sheltie, possibly with some corgi mixed in.

They are gorgeous dogs
I really wish I could adopt a greyhound.


ETA: I'm going by her very pointed muzzle, the prick of her ears, the fact that she lacks the square head, and her feet are pretty tiny, she's not going to be a very big dog.

They're both gorgeous!! I agree with Arlyn, Autumn looks like a Sheltie... I used to have one and she looks just like him.

Yeah Autumn is a sheltie (pet quality)


Love the Grey, but my fav color is mostly white with a few small spots of color

I thought I was going to see pictures of pups, which would be nice. But it was a wonderful surprise to find out it was older dogs being adopted and finding a home.

Yeah, a greyhound! I have a black & white parti greyhound too. Her name is Lacey Leigh. They are wonderful companions (this is my second grey).

Congratulations to your family on adopting adult dogs and giving them a forever home.

Yea, I thought I had the breed wrong...I have a terrible memory and am not very good with dog breeds

There's no place like home
I was owned by 2 greys a while ago. Both were brown brindle and were 75 and 95 pounds. I love greys!

But be careful. Not all greys are cat friendly. They usually do fine unless the cat makes a sudden move. They train them to chase small furry lures for the track and some learn too well.
