I can't believe that I've been in my new home for over a month! Time sure flies when you're having fun! Me and mom are doing great and having a blast together. She takes me for rides and walks around the block and it's fantastic! She bought me tons of toys, mostly the squeaky ones as those are my favorites! I miss my old friends but I am making new ones all the time! Will write again soon!

im adopted!
As of last Thursday I officially have a new home and a new mommy! So far this place is great! My new mom is very loving and knows just the spot on my tummy to rub. She's got a really big back yard that I can run around in until I'm too pooped to move! She's put this doggy door in and I'm not too crazy about it but she's determined to get me to use it. i'm giving it a shot, but I'm not making any promises! We go for a walk everyday around the neighborhood (well halfway because I get so tired!) and meet the neighbors. The kids over here sure are nice! But so far I have to say I'm very happy to have a home of my own and my very own master I can train to my liking! I'll keep you posted!

PetSSSSmart!
Yippee!
We went shopping this weekend. What a fun store...it's called PetSmart. It was a blast. I was super cool, didn't let them see my excitement, but I was excited. Yeap, tried to take some toys off the shelf, got some new food, checked out the scale (it was broken...that's my story & I'm sticking to it). It was awesome. I'm very curious and like to check out everything. But I'm calm, cool and collected and know that Keri's in charge of the leash. Really, sticking by the humans is the best thing to do at stores. They have the money! And the opposable thumbs to pull out the credit card, etc. Take my advice, kennel kids...hang tight and be good at the stores. It's the best way to ensure rewards in the way of TREATS!

New tricks!
Kennel kids,
Howdy! Another delay in posting. Gosh, I need to get on the stick here and control my foster mom...Wait, I think she'd have a problem if I thought she was in control. I'm not, I'm not. The humans are in control. (we let them think that to make them feel better). Really, I'm such a good girl and I am truly polite all the time. It's just in my nature, and I highly recommend it be in all of your natures, too, kennel friends. Oh, who am I kidding. We're greyhounds. Politeness is in our DNA (take note, foster sister, MaryLou).
Ok, so I'd like to post pictures of me doing my new trick, but I've lost the camera. Again, a little white lie. I'm a dog. I didn't loose the camera. A certain, not to be mentioned foster mom seems to have misplaced the camera, but I'm cool taking the fall for her. Anyway, if we could find the camera, we would be able to take and post pictures of me playing catch. This is a fun game that I know all of you kennel pups will enjoy (some of you already engage with those wonderful kennel walkers in the kennel run). Anyway, I am having so much fun frolicking in the backyard running after the toy and bringing it back for more romps! Who says greyhounds can't learn new tricks???
Can't wait to play with my new forever family in the backyard and neighborhood dog parks!
Off to look for that camera, because -- ahem -- it doesn't seem to be enough of a priority for - ahem - someone.
Your truly,
Athora (as told to Keri, who gets no respect around here -- ok, ok, Athora's right, she's very respectful and polite...she's just calling it as she sees it. That's fair)

Me and MaryLou
Prospective adopters: I'm talking to you now! Please call Keri today! Not only can she tell you how fun it is to live with me now, she can also tell you, from her experience, how fun it will be with me for years to come. Please, will you call her? (Call Patty & Suzanne first, of course).
Signed,
Athora (as told to Keri)
