What's New?

Keeping you up to date with the hectic life of the tigerDog.

Welcome to 2008... And a bit. About +5 months...!

Well what has happened since our last update? Quite a bit actually!! We have a new tigerDog friend, Tiger-Lily. We also have updates from the two sisters Cleo and Sully

After checking the site tracking stats - yes, Big Brother is watching you! Especially YOU over there, on the right...! There appears to be a common theme in questions referred from the search engines: do greyhounds / lurchers shed hair and do Greyhounds / Lurchers really need that much sleep, so we asked our resident expert and have the answers. We have also added a page about toys for greyhounds which is included at Lukes insistence. Not that anyone asks, but he thought he'd hedge his bets. It's his birthday is soon...

In recognition of the fact that the passing of our tigerFriends is an inevitable part of sharing our lives with them, we have introduced an in memory page dedicated to our departed tigerfriends.

Sad news about our oldest tigerDog friends.

Sadly over the past 12 months we have lost two of our beautiful tigerDog friends; Rosie and Henny. Our thoughts go out to their adoptive Mum and Dad at this time.

It is always a painful and sad time when a friend passes, however how sad would it have been not to have shared that short period of our human lives with them? We will see all our friends again at the Rainbow Bridge.

Adopting Black Hounds.

As with most of you, dear readers, we spend a lot of time surfing the information superhighway for greyhound sites and adoption agencies. Well the other week we stumbled upon a greyt site called blackbeauties and it helps adoption agencies around the UK home their black greyhounds.

This is very noble, but why just black hounds I hear you ask - well it was the question we had as well. Apparently black greyhounds are the most difficult colour to rehome...... I cannot believe that the colour of a hound actually plays any part in opening your heart to one of these beautiful animals but apparently it does.

So if you are looking for a greyhound, please visit the fantastic blackbeauties website, look into their eyes and ask yourself could you give one of these beautiful hounds a forever home?

Did you know - Amusing Site Information.

I have no idea if people read this bit, but if you do I will let you in on a secret.... When you see text in green like this it means that it is a hyper-link to another section of the site. Well duh!.. But it gets better.

If you hover your mouse pointer over a link, you get some additional text describing the link. Try it. On some pages, the links tell a story on their own. Readers of Terry Pratchett will understand. Maybe. Hopefully. Fingers crossed. Or maybe it's just me.....

Right. Enough! Who is to blame for all this?

This site is dedicated, with love, to Zack. The original tigerDog
