Dairyland Adoption Kennel

Today we went to Dairyland Greyhound Park. This is the adoption kennel at the track. They have lots of dogs and some nice people to help you adopt one.

Bullet takes a break

Bullet relaxes in his crate. He hasn't been neutered and we can't let him roam the house alone. He has "marked" several places already. After some time we should be able to let him roam. He doesn't mind the crate though, which is odd. At the adoption kennel he tore up his bedding because he hated his crate. This one is much larger though and there aren't a bunch of other dogs in crates stacked next to him.

Glow and Bullet

Glow and Bullet playing together in the yard. They were racing around and around chasing each other. I got them started with a throw toy and Glow grabbed it and took off.

Bullet's Closeup

Bullet looks like a brother to Glow, but he is actually 2 years younger. His facial markings are a mirror image of Glow only a darker brown.

Bullet

Our new addition to the family. His racing name was Divine Bull and we have named him Bullet. The kennel called him Bull, but that did not seem to fit him. We wanted to keep the name close to Bull, but still fit his personality. "The greyhound formerly know as Bull" seemed a little long unless we used some sort of symbol. :-)

Our Greyhounds

Mom with Monty, Glow and Stephanie

Glow

Glow's racing name was "Glow in the Bark". Glow broke her right rear leg while racing at Dairyland track in Wisconsin on Dec 10, 2003. Glows leg has mended very well and she has complete use of it. Glow is very playful and likes to run laps around the trees in the back yard. She and Stephanie also love to chase the squirrels that come into the yard.

Stephanie

Stephanie's racing name was "lnl so Stephanie". She broke her right rear leg while racing at Dairyland track in Wisconsin on Feb 1, 2004. She is a very sweet and loving dog. Stephanie likes to grab her stuffed toy cheetah when she goes for walks. She still limps even after a second surgery to fix her leg.

Walking Baby

Stephanie takes the cheetah "baby" for a walk. We call the cheetah "baby". Stephanie knows it by that name and will go get it when you tell her to "go get baby".

Squirrel Hunting
