Meet Winchell the Wonderdog! How did he get that name? Well, our
greyhound is just plain 'ole wonderful...
most of the time. Oh, he has his moments, like the time he ran away. Gee, he
can run fast! This is one retired greyhound's story with a very happy
ending.

Winchell was adopted from an agency that rescues
racing dogs and places them in loving, safe homes. One time,
Winchell was able to escape our yard and we found him two miles away! A
fenced yard is a necessity!
|

|
Now, Winchell can run to his heart's content on a large
treed lot in the state of Maryland..far from the Florida race track he
knew in his earlier years. The toy rabbit has been replaced with teasing
squirrels, long legged deer, and an occasional chipmunk! |

|
And this is the lovely Coco, a female companion that makes
Winchell bat those puppy eyes. Coco was recently adopted by another family
with children. Did you know greyhounds make especially nice pets for kids?

Coco won many races, too!

WINCHELL'S CONFESSIONS:
-
ate a casserole off the kitchen counter (Hey, I was
hungry!)
-
chewed up a paper coaster (Woof...I can't chew gum)
-
barked and woke neighbor (It was time to get up!)
-
rearranged the room (Yowsers! It was a bear and a
pillow.)

"Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the
center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and
trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without any doubt the
best deal man has ever
made." --Roger Caras |

WOW! Would you look below at the
prestigious most-sought after award I won for typing my own dog site! The
hardest part was the chair....have you ever noticed how greyhounds have a
way of sitting differently from other dogs? That's because our hind legs
are so long that we prefer to squat than sit like some fru-fru
poodle.

I love winning awards that you don't
have to run circles for. This one's to show how smart I am ... I skipped
all those obedience classes and just hung out at the student union and I still
graduated with honors (But, kids, I wouldn't recommend that for you!)
