Oh good, a place for me to talk about and show pictures of my weird dogs. Sassafras (left) is a 7 year old retired racer. Atticus is a nearly four year old whippet. I like them.   Sometimes they play.  Usually they sleep. [timg]http://i.imgur.com/LzMDotrh.jpg[[/timg]  Occasionally they steal things off the counters, like entire brand new bags of flour.  Often we go hiking near our house, which they enjoy.  We'll only ever have sighthounds from here on out. Our dogs are amazing and we're actively beginning the search for a third now.

Well, it finally happened. Nearly four years after adopting Sassafras, we got our first tail injury. Pressure change in the upstairs caused a bedroom door to slam right on her tail. Three big lacerations and blood everywhere. Luckily we have a fantastic vet here and she got Sassy all fixed up. She seems to barely notice it, other than the fact that her tail is heavier now. The good thing to come out of all this is that the whippet, Atticus, stepped up and started taking care of her. We've not really seen that before. Going to adopt 5 more.

You didn't let Union down. You both made each other's lives better. Remember that dogs don't fear or understand their mortality like we do. The only thing she knew is that she had you and you had her.

Sassy and Atticus have never really been around kids at all, so I was a little nervous when my niece came to visit. It worked out pretty well, though. They're mad that she's gone home.

Speaking of birthdays and needing to eat burgers, once a year Atticus and Sassafras each get a burger. They seem to enjoy it.  They're not in any danger of getting fat any time soon, despite the fact that they eat and take naps all day.

I'm the headless person to the right. If that was my house all the time, I think I would finally be happy.

We moved and Sassafras is still trying to wrap her head around it. I think she's coming around, but she's spending a lot of time contemplating life.
