Hello everyone, We came across the posts about Rex and Snoop going to Norway. Thought we would give you an update onto how they are getting on.
Rex has been across for a year this summer and he loves it. He gets LOTS of attention (especially from kids who thinks he is a deer.."Look mum, they got Bambi on a leash"), being the only greyhound (other than Snoop) in Skien. He has been admitted into the afghan hound club and they have an enclosed area where all the dogs can run free. Rex and Snoop usually meet up for a little run with the other hounds.
They both love running in the snow (dressed for the occation with "longjohns" and wintercoats) and we will try to post some winter pics. Lately Rex has taken up a new hobby - caravan holidays...He has got his own camping bed and tours around Norway at the weekends. He is a well travelled greyhound, no doubt..
Grace is still enjoying life in Aberdeen. If we try to have a nap on "her" sofa she will stare us into submission. When we eventually give in and let her come into the sofa with us she will expand very gradually until we are on the floor. We have been considering getting another greyhound but not so easy to find a greyhound who is parrot safe. Rex was about 2 cm from parrot feed, leaving the parrot without tail feathers. Grace ignores the feathery ones as long as they stay away from her sofa.
Thanks for letting us know how Rex and Snoop are getting on in Norway! I'm sure they're loving the attention and celebrity status they're getting for being the only greys in the village! The photos are great - Rex looks so happy and fit.
Wow what great pics, Rex is a very handsome boy. Thanks for the update on Snoop and Rex, its so good to hear they are doing well. Love the one of Rex playing in the snow.
