Hi All,
I am new to this site but am a huge grey/longdog/pointy things fan!
I lived in Norfolk until 6 years ago when we moved to High Wycombe but we still have family and friends in Norfolk and come home regularly!
We have 4 dogs at the mo. 2 lurchers and 2 greys.
My oldest is a lurcher pregnant dog called Sasha

She is 11 years old and has been diagnosed with cancer of the pancreas which has already spread to other areas including her lung.
She is still enjoying life at the mo but we are told that may change at any time.
Then came Sidney my first grey after a 'look around' at Battersea.

He's BIG ( 34 inches to shoulder and 40 kilos), daft and soppy. He's 7 years old.
Then came my little irish ex racer from RGT. The beautiful Lottie or TOT as we call her, also 7 years old.

and lastly the horrid Ellie! She's an ex Greyound rescue west of england whippet X salouki. She is a bloody menace in may ways but is slowly starting to calm. We collected her a year ago when doing some voluntary dog transportation for them to their Gloucester kennels. We spotted her putting her parts on and was told she would be impossible to home as she was aggressive to people and dogs. So of course we said we would have her.

She has bitten 2 poeple since then both in my home both friends of mine! I DO muzzle her at all times when we are out.
Anyway sorry to bore you all with my hounds. Would like to see photos of your hounds.
do you all meet occasionally and if so where? May try to tag along next time we are in Norfolk.
Helen
