You know those Mastercard commercials:


Sometimes, my life feels like that:

whippet puppy -- a few hundred dollars ($$)

(Mati as a baby puppy)

Muzzle for whippet $12 ($)

Set of racing jackets for whippet: $50 ($)

Van to take whippet(s) to races: $25,000 ($$)



Home on 5 acres so that whippets have a large backyard for running.....more than the van ($$$$$).





Sixty-five acres so that I can set up my own whippet ranch.....more than I EVER thought that I would spend on some dogs.... ($$$$$)

The sight of the whippets enjoying the whippet ranch -- PRICELESS.Whippets running around like bunnies

The grass was Hudi height. I don't have many pictures of her. She kept getting lost.

Super Gabi to the rescue!

Gabi telling Charlie, "Really, the water feels good and you won't get muddy at ALL!"

Running through the water plants (I think the pond needs aqua Round Up)

Reilly, who seizes every opportunity to get dirty!


I didn't think Gabi's tongue was THAT big!

The Whippet Ranch is going to take a lot of work, but I am looking forward to that. In the mean time, it's fun to just let the dogs run around. Of course, if the grass gets too much higher, I may loose the whippets..... After the expedition to the ranch this morning, I went out to a colleagues land to look at his barn. Whodda thunk that I would be barn shopping?
