Written by I put my foot down six months ago and said no more fostering. I even bought Lindsay the little Ziggy guy. Our hearts are just too big. The race season came to a close and GALT has over 100 dogs to place. They are in dire need of foster homes for these dogs as over 40 of them are being boarded at various kennels at a cost of $8 per day per dog. Not only is it a huge cost to GALT but the dogs have a better time at a person’s home. We picked up our foster dog yesterday and she is doing her best to fit in. Yeah, we’re animal people.

padre’s racing pictures
Many thanks to Jon Fishback, an excellent photographer and board of trustees member for Greyhound Pets of America – Northwest, who took pictures of Cayenne Padre racing in Multnomah, Oregon for providing these pictures to us. We have a hard time imagining the ‘other’ life Padre led before retirement. He was an awesome racer and now an even more awesome lifetime friend.
I found the races that the pictures are of:

A few weeks ago we attended GALT’s birthday party at Lewisville Lake. Many people were there and over 200 greyhounds. A peninsula of land was fenced off for the dogs to run and go in the lake. Padre decided to cool off a bit.
