    I came to have my lurcher (whippet x border terrier) Lacey by default really. :grin: Her previous owner was having a baby and thought she would not manage a dog and baby something I do agree not with :cry: as I have always had dogs with children; any way Lacey was bound for rescue and just out of the blue because I was not looking to get a dog at that time, I asked if I could see her.
    She was bought to the house to meet hubby and myself and never went back to her original home.
    It is a decision I have never for a minute regreted. When I had her she could not/would not walk on a lead now she does obedience trials and has just gained her bronze good citizens award:lol:
    All that was just about 2 years ago, and now we are waiting for our new little whippet to join in in a months time.:grin:

    Excellent pictures! They're all such gorgeous hounds! Thanks for sharing :)

    Just thought I'd share a couple more of Axel now. We've had him 2 months now, a gorgeous boy who's a pleasure to have around.
