My 3 boys came home on the May 2-4 weekend last year...I cannot believe it has only been a year! There has been alot of work, tears and laughter over the last year. When my heart boy, Tex, died last April I was soooo lost and I knew I needed greyhounds in my life so DH and I went to GRA and let Chevy & Buzz (Devin) pick us as their forever parents. When we went to pick them up 1 year ago DH told Bill that we would be open to taking another grey sometime in the future. DH explained that we would be open to a senior &/or black &/or bounce...When I met DH at the kennel to help load the greys into the jeep I found DH and Bill standing with Chevy and Buzz AND Murphy - a bounced, black, senior! ;D They all got along and all turned out to be cat friendly (a necessity). House training proved to be very frustrating but with the help of belly bands (for over 6 months) and barricading all is well now. They are the sweetest, most wonderful best friends a gal to have! Now that I see how wonderful siblings can be I just wish I would have brought one home for my Tex before he died... Chevy, Devin and Murphy got new toys and collars/leashes for their first gotcha day and even though the weather is just horrible today we took them out for a run. I am at work now so tonight their Dad will give them each a big long Bully-Stick and some cookies. I will add some pics tonight when I get home. Happy Gotcha Day Boys, Momma & Daddy & the kitties love you a whole lot!!!

Happy Gotcha Day Boys! I'm so glad all three of you worked out...eventually. Betsy came home that weekend too. (and, almost, another girl), although I think of May 14 as her Gotcha Day because that's when we met.
