Debbie has been adopted!

Sweet Debbie went to her new home this past weekend. She has a red greyhound brother to play with. Good luck sweetie pie!

Debbie is Available for Adoption

Debbie is back with NLGA and looking for a forever loving home. She is a huge sweetheart and needs a home where she is not alone too much. I would foster her again, but I have Wizard now.

Good luck cutie pie! *fingers and paws crossed*

Happy Gotcha Day!

Yay!!! Debbie went to her forever home tonight! I already miss her a ton. Her new Mommy is wonderful and I know Debbie will make her very happy. It took a long time, but She finally got her couch. Congrats sweet Debbie, you'll always be in my heart. <3

V-Day Stuffie

Hello Fanz,
Debbie here to show you pics of my V-Day stuffie.
I loves it!

Taking a short break, see how my stuffie still looks the same after 10 mins of play?


Lucy's stuffie after just 3 mins


This is why you don't give a weim a stuffie (actual time of destruction was 7 mins), oh the horror!


I hope you all had a good V-Day. Just a heads up: there will be a big announcement later this week, otay, Bha-bye!

Potty Dance

One of the best qualities of adopting an adult greyhound: greyt potty habits. All of my past fosters have been very easy. Debbie is no exception. She goes out every 4-6 hours during the day and holds it for 9 hours overnight. We usually exit out the walkout basement doors and Debbie always does a little potty dance where she'll head straight for the door then turn around and walk towards me, then back to the door again. Sometimes she'll disappear downstairs and when I go looking for her, she'll be waiting by the door asking to be let out. Debbie is one smart cookie! <3

18 Weeks

Hello Fanz, Debbie back again. Foster mommy wanted me to tell you sorry for no posts lately. I'ves been in foster home for 18 weeks and a few days. Mom tells me time flies having me in da house because I yam so much fun.

I'm happy it is warming up again so we can go on our 30 min walks on the trails in the neighborhood. Foster mom is a baby and won't go if it is under 15 degrees. But I run hot and walking in the cold doesn't bother me.This is prolly because I raced in Rhode Island for many years instead of the warm south. In fact, mom stop making me use the annoying snood because I was getting too warm with it on. I love reading pee mail and leaving lots of them too. I only walk with Lucy because foster mom can't handle three big dogs( the weims like to pull her, not me I yam perfect). After we girlz are done she walks Leroy alone and I don't like that so I whine a bit and yam happy when they get back.

I loves to sunbathe. When the sun hit the couch and walls I stand by it and wonder how to get it on me. Foster mom laughs at me when I do this because I have not figured out how to climb up on the couch like the weims (and she doesn't show me hows because NLGA want hounds to stay off furniture). So I lay on the dog bed and wait for it to hit the floor. Then I get first dibs where I want to lay because I yam da queen.

Well I yam off for a fun walk, so bha-bye.


Foster mom: How can that be comfortable?
Me: Eye use toy as a nice pillow, see I'm smart.
Mom: Uh, you're gonna get a kink in that beautiful neck.
Me: I am part giraffe so no worries.

Happy New Year!

Wordless Wednesday: Snowy Backyard

Merry Christmas!

Hello Fanz,
Debbie here to wish yew all a Merry Christmas!
I've been a berry good girl and Santa Paws come while eye was sleeping and left a prezzie for me. I love it, thank you Santa Paws!

At first I didn't know the prezzie was for me cuz i don't know how to read the sticker


Foster Mom helped me open it


Yay! A squeaky for me!




I loves it <3

Debbie Loves Lucy

Debbie adores Lucy, she is always showering her with bitey affection. Here she is nitting in the beginning and then getting crazy:



More Debbie silliness trying to get Lucy to play:

Wordless Wednesday: Scarfs, Antlers and Socks

Chattering

Debbie's teeth chatters when she gets excited for walks, getting up first thing in the morning and especially when I have yummy treats. We were doing a Christmas photo shoot (I'll share the pics on Wednesday) and here is a vid of her chattering for a peanut butter treat. She's such a cutie pie <3 Turn up the volume :)

Wordless Wednesday: Brrrrrrrr!

Pillows

Not to mention any names(cough-Lucy,cough-Leroy), but with aggressive chewers in the house, most toys are destroyed within a few mins. We don't have baskets and baskets of toys but we do have a selection of tennis balls, racket balls, kongs, ropes, cuz, and a few tattered stuffies.
Which toy does Debbie go nuts over?
Pillows.
Not just any, there are two specific ones that she claimed for herself. There is a small square memory foam, and a neck memory foam. She especially loves grabbing one(or both) right when we wake up. Debbie is very polite and always waits until we get out of bed before starting her crazy play session. <3

FYI, Debbie is really good at sleeping through the whole night without a peep until we wake up at 7:30. I like her to be comfortable and stretch out so she is not crated, unless I leave during the day.

Hoomuliation Pants

Hello adoring fans, Debbie here again to tell you about some abuse at the hands of my Foster Mom.

I got an owie from scraping the inside of my leg on a ramp. I've haz it for a week now and it is a small owie, but I like to lick it all the time so it won't heal. Foster Mom tell me to stop but I don't listen so She forced me to wear hoomuliation pants! I yam supposed to wear them all da time except for potty breaks or on walkies, hmmmmmph.

I yam very unhappy. This is knot how a queen is supposed to dress. The good thing is when we go to sleep at night I roll around and can get free of them, ha! I am pleading with all my fans to please stop this horrible abuse!

Here is da evidence:

Green Homemade Toys

I made the dogs homemade toys today. This is a good way to reuse plastic water bottles. You could by a "Bottle Buddy": But they usually sell for around $7. Once they're done you could insert another bottle, or recycle it.

Materials: Leftover fleece and water bottles:

Sew a sleeve and insert bottle:

Tie off the ends and you've got a greyt toy:

Debbie gave it 4 paws up!

She loved the crinkly sound it makes


These are best for light to medium chewers, and for less than 25 cents per toy, you won't feel bad if they "kill" it...Lucy obliterated 2 within a few mins...crazy weim.

Gobble Gobble!

Sunbathing

Debbie is doing greyt. She recently had her thyroid checked because she has dark skin pigment and is losing some thigh fur. Both results came back normal, so I guess she just likes to be a tan baldie.
She's grown very fond of Lucy (it seems like all the fosters know who the cool kid is...lol, sorry Leroy). She constantly likes to start play fights with her and I've caught her nitting Lucy.
Debbie has been enjoying the nice weather and of course being served nose and paw.

If you have not been to the Northern Lights Greyhound Adoption page lately, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the many beautiful greyhounds available. Check them out and bring home an amazing 45 MPH couch potato... Debbie tells me she is the best one ;)

Foster Bro's B-day

Hello everybody, Debbie here to tell you about my Saturday.
It is my foster bro, Leroy's B-day. He is an old fart and turned 8. We didn't care for the party hats and just wanted the cake. Foster mom kept on using the flashy box when all three of us were telling her to get to the yummy stuff! I'm sure he got prezzies, i don't care what they are, i'll probably steal 'em later since i am da queen around here...
We all finally did get some yummy cake...*drools* I go see if there is any more left over, bha-bye!

Here is da birthday boy


I'm not interested, give me cake!


Da "goose"


Yummers!
