Never mind the geriatric deerhound

Today is MY gotcha day!!

6 WHOLE years ago today my mum and dad came and collected me from EGLR , and I was a very happy bunny (well... a happy dog anyway, the bunnies were probably not so happy).

I get two meals a day plus treats, I get cuddles and fusses and I get my choice of soft beds and sofas (with pillows and added sunny spots) to snooze on all day. What more could a girl want?


Well - maybe if I'm lucky a nice smelly leg stretch in the woods by the river.

Happy gotcha day Cleo. Do you know how old you are?

It's definitely a week of celebrations in your kennelhouse.

Oh Cleo, you are so beautiful - how could anyone resist you? Your parents are celebrating THEY'RE 'Got Cleo Day' too, for sure! How old were you when they 'gotcha' 6 years ago? Congratulations!

A belated congratulations Cleo! I'm never quite sure if it's the adopter or the adoptee who is luckiest - probably both in equal measures...

Adopting a galgo (spanish greyhound) has been, for sure, one of the best things I've done in my whole life.

Congratulation to you and your family!

PS: Is your name Cleo? hey! just like one of my quadrĂºpedos! She's a black & white english cocker spaniel and she's a very lovely girl.

We're late, we're ALWAYS late but hope you had a great day! It was so sweet of you to rescue your peeps.

Oh Cleo, Your life sounds so fabulous. I've actually decided to move in with you guys. I'm still working on the travel arrangments and getting my donut bed moved. You can sleep in it sometimes, if you get tired of the couch. How's the swimming over there?

You know that I smooched you earlier but many more coming from me.
