NOTHING WITTY TO SAY

This blog is primarily focused on my dog obsession, especially greyhounds. Other subjects of interest may occasionally get slipped in, too, tagged #ndr.  My side blog is silent-repose.tumblr.com.

Bad night.

Tonks is getting more comfy in her new home. She sleeps on my bed with me at night, and she jumps up in the car all by herself now. She’s still unsure about toys, but likes to chew things my roommate leaves around. She’s really warming up to me and is seeming to understand that I’m her main caretaker (mom). More updates to come!

[k9kesi]

She’s precious.

We are concerned that Tehya might not adapt to forever home life and that we might need to stage an intervention….

She needs a comfortable place to rest STAT! 😂

I shouldn't feel anxious for being generous? Wish I understood my emotions better sometimes.

Happy 2nd Gotcha Day Teddy!

Two years ago today, after spending 7 months at the kennel, post-retirement, you came home and began wreaking havoc on the streets of Chicago.

Love you, Bear!

Happy gotcha day!

Greek Xenon Ware Kylix with Laconian Hound, Southern Italy, Apulia, 325 BC

This is a beautiful kylix, a drinking cup, with two raised handles extending from near the rim and a pronounced foot. The black background has attained some iridescence from the firing process. A laurel leaf motif wraps the interior and exterior rims; in the center of the interior is a charmingly posed dog. All are in a pale orange/pink tone. This style of overpainting on blackware is known as Xenon ware, a uniquely Apulian version of an Attic style.

The dog has pointed ears, a long tail, and a body built for speed - this is the famous Laconian hound, the swift, Spartan dog known to be native to ancient Greece, used for hunting, guarding the home and livestock, and of course canine companionship.

Xenophon, the ancient Greek philosopher and military leader describes these dogs in detail in chapter 4 of Cynegeticus, his treatise about hunting with dogs.

Yogurt peanut butter banana frozen treats (for dogs)! I just pureed 32 oz plain yogurt with 3-4 tablespoons of peanut butter and a whole ripe banana (cut into slices). Pour in molds or ice trays and freeze at least 2 hours.

Omg did I ever share this here? I was taking a picture of him roaching and RIGHT at the moment I snapped the photo there was a huge crash of thunder and I got his look of momentary startled horror.
