Back in the Saddle

Oh my gosh...have you all been wondering where I've been? I'm so sorry, kennel friends. Athora reporting for duty and apologizing for the delays. There have been a few things going on around here -- nothing to do with me -- and my foster fam hasn't had a chance to log me in to the computer. I mean, come on, you didn't think they'd give a greyhound the computer passwords did you?
So, where have I been -- well, everywhere. Let me tell you, I am a lucky, lucky girl. While I'm waiting for YOU to adopt me -- that's right, I'm talking to you -- I've stayed with some lovely ladies. First there was Lynn and now my buddy Sue! Oh, I had so much fun staying with Sue, Cutter and Steelwave for two weeks during my foster families "vacation." Not sure what vacation is, but I know that staying with Sue is just heavenly! So relaxing and serene. We spent warm summer days sunning ourselves in the family room and evenings lounging on the porch watching the kids play and the rain roll in from the south.
I'm back now, and you'll see here that I've picked up right where I've left off. Taking a nap on the same bed that I fancied here earlier in the month. I had SO much fun, I just crashed and fell asleep as soon as I returned to my abode. Looking all over the metro area for my new forever family is exhausting. Could you hurry up and come get me!

All of my foster moms report...I'm a keeper. They just are already at capacity at their houses. So, just know that I'm addictive. Once I get into your house, I make myself at home and you won't want to see me leave, either.

To my kennel buds -- and there's been some great turnover, so welcome to the newbies -- let me tell you. I've learned this month that there sure are A LOT of wonderful people out here caring for hounds like you and me. Wow! My cup runneth over. Ok, my dog bowl runneth over (I can't really drink from a cup -- well, I've tried, but the humans didn't appreciate my tongue in their orange juice.)

Signed,

Athora (as told to Keri, because I don't know the passwords and I have to hunt & peck when it comes to typing, so I much prefer dictation).
