Whippet Snippets

Two of a kind

One thing's for certain...it's destined to be a full house soon for Boy and Girl.

Ribsy, meet your little sister-to-be!

Canine confessions

Some exciting news from the homefront coming very soon. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, Ribsy wonders if you have seen CBC's new dog-umentary? Canine Confidential journeys into the hearts and minds - and ever-expanding wallets - of dog owners, from the Palm Beach socialite to the competitive dog dancing owner to the military trainer.

There are even some hound factoids to be learned. For instance, did you know that:

• Greyhounds are one of the best doggie blood donors around
• Afghan hounds have a doggie IQ of 2
• Beagles are not renowned for their obedience

Happy Birthday Boy

Ribsy wishes you a day full of the things he would love to do, 'cause that's what he think everyone wants to do on their own special day.

'Cause when you do run, you're too busy to look back at things. Think forward, think ahead, think spring, think living. Mmm...bones.

Canada's Next Top Whippet

Ribsy was reunited with one of his Westcoast fans today. She breezed into the Hammer for a walk along Locke Street, lunch at the Bar on Locke, a visit to the very first Tim Horton's, and a scenic drive around town.

Thanks for the cuddles! I very much enjoyed posing with you, thought Ribsy, who recalled a moment from his puppyhood where he learned how to do exactly that. Pictured here at only four months old, he was a quick study!

Passing with Flying Colors

As you may or may not know, this dog's blog often features its fair share of airplane talk. Today is no exception. Ribsy wants to congratulate Boy on his successful flight today! He managed to capture a few snaps as the Boeing 727 went soaring by.

Sunday Sappiness

Kleenex alert! This video has Girl convinced that Ribsy really does need a little friend to keep him company. Boy, are you reading this?

Ribsy is waggin' for Presley and Calvin - got to stick with the fawns.

It's Hard Letting You Go

Ribsy taps his paw patiently as Girl completes her Bon Jovi journey this week. Front row, smiles, winks, singalongs, and JonSweat. It was all there, and all worth it.

Now back to your regular whippet programming.

Any Other Day

Any other day will seem so ordinary compared to yesterday. Girl died and went to heaven - first row heaven directly in front of the Jon - last night in Toronto.

I Get A Rush

While he had a fantastic time at Suki and Jet's house for the most part last night, Ribsy managed to sneak a quick peek at what Girl was off doing in Toronto. Turns out she was there for the first of three Bon Jovi shows this week.
