Here are some pictures of my friends' rescued greyhound Ally. I think greyhounds have got a pretty good market share in pulling silly dog faces.

Is sleeping face down normal? I don't think it's normal.
I don't think this dog is normal.

My dog does this sometimes. I think he gets stuck in the middle of sleeping on his front and sleeping on his side, so he just ends up with his face mashed into the bed.

Woo, apparently a change in legislation in my state (Western Australia) allows greyhounds as pets to be assessed for a 'green collar', aka, a muzzle exemption!

Only took 86 years for the change. That's fast by WA reckoning.

Those laws haven't passed yet. They're still being read in Parliament I think. Sadly they're full of other changes which are much worse, such as requiring restricted breed dogs to be neutered by 3 months of age and not allowing them to go to rescue if they get impounded and the owner doesn't want them back. It's pretty lovely that good changes get lumped in with horrible ones.

Back story: a local rescue group puts dogs up in private kennels using donation/personal money when there isn't enough foster carers. My girlfriend and I walk the dogs in the nearby kennel housing 6 rescued dogs, including 3 greys at the moment.

Here's Elliot being a huge spaz:

It is fun to recognise dogs on Facebook from SA and vice versa. Hello WA goon. :3:

I want one of these.

http://www.doggenetics.co.uk/oddities.html doesn't know much about it. Those are cool-looking dogs though.

So I'm married to this particular goonette, and we just brought our new hound home today!

And for the astute observer, yes, that collar does have all the Eeveelutions on it. We are nerds. But Tatianna's done great through this whole crazy day! A 4 hour car ride, a trip to the dog park to get some energy out, stairs (the struggle is real), and a new crate, but she looks quite happy! This is the best day!

She looks like the most proper old lady. I love her already. :3:
