Here's pics of our Bark Brigade
the Feline Force will follow soon -- still have to get pics of two more of our cats... they are camera shy

meanwhile -- Presenting the Bark Brigade:


Sunny - 5yrs old this month -- Greyhound - male
We adopted him last February

Drippy Face because she just got done drinking a bowl of water.....
My partner has had her since she was little drippy puppy

2. IBU is doing much better
he's settled down a bit -- getting use to the place and the other critters

he's pretty good with the cats -- mostly ignores them, but we'll still keep the muzzle on him when he is "unsupervised"

he spent most of the morning in his crate while we were at work -- didn't even bark or whine when I came home around noon -- just real happy to be out of it

Unfortunately, he hasn't settled in enough for us to trust him out of the crate when we are not around the house -- he's only been with us since Wednesday night

He has found the food and treat buckets and figured out how to open them -- they are now locked safely in the pantry...

3. They are all beautiful!
I didn't realize that Greyhounds had so many variations in color.

I'm sure IBU will be just fine in another week or so.

4. they come in all sorts of colors and combinations
brindles, blacks, blues, white, fawn, spotted combinations
they range between 24" (at shoulder) to 32"

Sunny and IBU are about 32", Mint (our other foster) was around 25"

they are great dogs -- not hyper -- big couch potatoes
good around kids, other dogs, and most are ok with cats

6. His kennel name
is Oneca Ibuprofen -- yeah like the pills... :eyes:

His call name is Ibu (eye-boo) -- we're calling him Boo for now, just because we can't stand calling him by a pill name..

Once he goes to a forever home, his new family will probably change his name

If we were to keep him, we'd call him Ivan -- he just looks like an Ivan to me...
