Look What He's Doing Now!

He jumped up on the couch last night with Mama and cuddled with her. :::sigh::: I thought I would have a few more days on the couch without him.

This morning, instead of helping us in the office, he is doing this:

The Greyhound Who Is Jealous Of Her New Brother

I Think I Got A Dud

I've had a new brother for about 24 hours and I think he's a dud. This morning, we went out to the backyard and he wouldn't play with me. He was too concerned about getting his muzzle off. Sheesh.... I don't like wearing the muzzle either, but we have to wear it to play, at least for now.


He didn't know how to lay down to eat a treat at first.




Joey doesn't know how to play with toys. He has been moving them from the bedroom to his bed and then he tries to play, but can't find the squeaker. Yep, he's a dud for sure.



He really likes to look out the windows.


Grandma and Grandpa came over and they brought Joey a card and inside was money for treats. Grandma said that I could pick them out. YES!!!! I know the good stuff and I already know what we are getting.

Joey is starting to relax some, but he's still walking from room to room. Daddy said he's probably just enjoying his freedom because he's been living in a kennel all of his life. I don't know, but it's very tiring watching him walk around all the time.

I guess he's kind of cute, but he's just a dud right now.

Joey Is Here - Part 2 - Pictures

Well, Joey doesn't seem to stand still long enough for photos.

Here I am on the way to meet him.



Here's Joey!



He looked out the window like this the entire ride.


Mama got a little carried away marking the window. Joey still hit it with his muzzle when he first came in.

We will get some better photos tomorrow after he calms down. He's always lived in a kennel, so he doesn't know what living in a home is like. I bet he gets used to the comfy feeling really fast.

Joey Is Here!

We just wanted to let you know that Joey is here. We are not posting pictures yet because Mama would have to move from the couch and that would wake up the prince. No, he's not on the couch, but on the floor. He finally laid down after pacing from room to room for about 3.5 hours. He did take a quick cat nap in his crate, but then he was back to going from room to room. Mama had to follow him to make sure he wasn't getting into anything. I just watched the action from the couch.

I'm not sure I like him yet. I think once he settles down, he will be better.

Mama says he seems to be pretty smart. I'm not sure about that. I mean, he didn't know how to lay on the floor. He does know how to go down steps, but not up them. He is not scared of vinyl floors at all. Mama thinks he is smart because Daddy asked him if he wanted to go in his crate and he kissed Daddy. He then went in his crate and took a quick nap. Well, Mama took him to his crate and he went right in and took a nap.

He has been outside several times, but he hasn't been let loose in the yard yet. He is very curious. The whole way home, he just looked out the window. He wants to check out what's behind every single door. He really needs to relax. He's retired after all.

One More Day!

It's just one more day of me being an only dog. It's been so lonely without Jack. I hope Joey likes me.

I wish it wasn't so hot here. We aren't going to be able to play in the yard until it cools off.

Mama has her camera in her purse so that she doesn't forget it tomorrow. Joey should be at the drop off point around 1:30 or so. I don't know how we are going to sleep tonight. We are so excited!

Mama is excited, but a little sad too. She still really misses Jack. She said she will never ever forget him even with Joey here. He will always be in our heart and our memories. We have a ton of memories of Jack.

I will update you with photos of Joey as soon as I can. I have to show him around and be the big sister first.
