That is a one HUGE plus of a GSP vs the Lab or Golden. Leena's hair is dry in minutes. Bliss's would be wet for hours.

No Dennis didnot take me along.  Now just home alone being a single dog house.I am tired as it was a blast having 2 other dogs to runny, runny with and share my house with me all day yesterday and part of today Mom says I earned a B+ behavior in sharing my house with multiple dogs!! (too barky, barky in backyard sharing his tennis ball & hogging their bed completely during night time sleep) Maybe should be C+ behavior???

Ok here comes round 2 of Rocky guest house. Only alot easier and lot less energy as we will be host house to Monty, across street 14yr old Saluki who Rocky is friends with and sees everyday along with her sister Dreamer who is a 4 year old Saluki. My friend Gayle is leaving for VA to pick up her new 12 week old Jasper, brindle colored Saluki. Dreamer will be Gayles traveling partner. She has Red Roof resevations for both directions. Two fold away crates are pack in her car along with everything else she needs. They leave tomorrow 8 am will stay in motel over night. Then next day friday drive 6 more hours to Breeders house and then she will meet her new Saluki pup Jasper. . Rocky does consider Gayle's Salukis as part of his pack. So he will be adding one more  Should be fun more excitement and adventure to follow

PS Monty is far left on the above pic. Feather next and chocolate Saluki, Bohsa. Feather passed away at 10 yrs old. Bosha passed away at 13 yrs old. Monty is the only one who is living. My friend Gayle is used to having 3 dogs, has been down to 2 so at the end of next week should be back to three. Multiples!! Good she has a friend like me who loves multiples, but because of husband can only have one right now!!

Well, My friend Gayle and her Saluki Dreamer got off safely on their trip toVirginia this morning at 8am. When I woke up and made it over to let 14 yr old Monty boy out of his house, he greated me with anxious look on his face as if to say, " My family left me behind" So I took him outside on leash for a walk with Rocky. Poor Monty walked so stiffley with his back legs dragging that I put Rocky back in house and walked Monty single and slowly at his own pace. I put Monty back in the house then proceded with execising Rocky his way and doing other stuff. Then in the aftenoon I went to into Monty's house, smart this time and left Rocky home. Just walked him again slowly with a stiff uncomfortable gait. My friend gave me written permission to make medical decisions for Monty in her abscence. So I decided to give Monty who is half the weight of Rocky, 1/2 Dermax tab. Could not believe the difference in Monty's gait after a half hour of giving that drug to him. Before he could hardly make it up the flight of stairs in my backyard, but after Dermax he leaped up the stairs. Faster smoother gait also on the third walk we went on for old Monty boy.

Ok today I had my nail trim, weight check and exam by my Vet!! She said I looked absolutely perfect and great weight at 78,9lbs. She is glad I am keeping my weight down from when I was in the 90's. She also OKed my poor buddy Monty to have 1/2 tab of my Dermax I no longer need since my weight lose. Monty's Mom said OK by phone today when she called to check up on us

Thank you Bev on compliment on Rocky boy Here is Monty boy tonight with much better gait. after second dose of DermaxDramatic difference. I know alot of GSP people think this breed is much too thin and not a dog. It is not uncommon to have this kind of reaction to Salukis if you have never been exposed to this breed
