I'm Naked!

Mama made me a new collar and Daddy said that people will think I am naked wearing it. See, it blends into me. I could be a hunter. A hunter hunting rabbits. LOL (I really don't hunt rabbits, but you know, people always say that greyhounds chase rabbits during the race. We really don't...oh, never mind, it was supposed to be a joke.)



Mama says that I look very handsome and it will be perfect for camping. I have a green one like this and the kids call me an Army dog.



Happy Saturday everyone!

Home Again

We are home again. It took us a day to recover from our camping trip. All that wind and cold air made us really tired.

I have my big "exam" next Tuesday with the vet. Mama has been brushing my teeth almost every day since my teeth started looking bad again. We even brushed my teeth while camping. The teeth brushing really helps me and the vet said he was impressed last year, so we will see what he says next week. I don't want to have a dental, so I'm working really hard on the teeth brushing.

Mama made us homemade frosty treats again today since we ate our supply while camping.

Mama also bought some new material for more collars today. She's a nut!

Still On The Road



We have been having fun camping, except it stormed last night. Today, it turned cold and it is so windy. The motor home keeps shaking. Scary stuff!

We have been on lots of walks and met some very nice people. There are huge birds here that live along the stream. Daddy said they are called turkey vultures. We were walking last night and this siren went off. The siren told the people to stop fishing and then all the turkey vultures flew close to us. It's a strange place.

Jack did the "greyhound scream of death" yesterday. If you don't know what that means, it is when a greyhound screams like something is killing them and it turns out to be nothing at all. Mama and Daddy immediately checked his foot because he was holding it up in the air and they thought maybe he stepped on a fish hook or something bad like that. It was nothing. As soon as they told him he was fine, he put his foot down and started prancing around like normal. He made quite a scene though and lots of people were saying "Oh,no, he is okay?" My brother is a goof.

Reporting To You From The Road

We are on our way to do some trout fishing. The sky is blue right now. We are expecting nice temperatures until tomorrow night and then rain is supposed to come in bringing with it cooler temperatures.

Here I am as we are traveling down the highway.



We stopped at a rest area. Jack and I did some sniffing and exploring.



I will update when I can. Mams said we may not have Internet at the campsite. She will have withdrawals again.

Camping Time

It's busy around here this week. We are headed out for another camping trip tomorrow. Mama went to the store yesterday and bought all sorts of food for the trip.

Mama made us some frozen treats. We get to take those camping with us, but she gave us each one this morning because we were being a pain. Hey, it works for us.

Pardon the butt shot of me. My butt is really not that big, it's just the way I am laying and the camera adds ten pounds.

I will try to update you during our trip, but we may not have Internet service.

Your friend,
Jack the greyhound

Home Again - Part 3

 Well, we just realized that we didn't finish telling you about the rest of our trip home.  I don't know if we even remember the res...
