The Torturous Life of a Whippet


My brother's a loser...

That Hooligan... I'm seriously going to retire soon from flyball and he's nowhere ready to compete. That was the rule! I tried to show him my tricks but he has the attention span of a gnat. Whatever. He's been stealing away my "mom time" by way of being obnoxious. I'm #1 but he gets all the attention. Brat. I like to rub it in his face that I get bed privileges at night and he doesn't. Dumb ass chased the cat too many times at 3am, now he's gotten himself crated at night. More room on the bed for me! See- I'm trying to write MY diary entry, and already his shenanigans made it about him! Grrrrrr...

I've been doing awesome at flyball as usual. Mom's so proud. My hip was sore after the last tournament. Mom made me get xrays, the doc says I have the best looking 11 year old hips ever. So I get to do another tournament (one day) unless my hip bugs me in the meantime. Then maybe I'll retire. We'll see. I still love to play, but it's very exhausting. Mom's sad, I've been supposed to retire a few times before, but this time's for real. I've had a great career. It won't be so bad snuggling in bed while Hoolie's out working his little peanut brain.

Take care, all my doggie (and kitty) friends!


A Lazy Day

Today my brothers and sister get to have a lazy day. We're all sick with some tummy upset, mom and the Dr don't know why. Even though I feel fine, mom's keeping us home from flyball practice and the dog park. She's thinking maybe the cooties came from the dog park? My bro Photon did a giardia test, but it was negative. Oh well, what Whippet would complain about a lazy day on the couch anyways :)


I finally got to meet my Dogster pal Gideon!

Mom took me and my sis and bro to the races in Sloughhouse. And there was Gideon!!! He's sooooooooo handsome! Mom was so excited, she was petting him and talking to him. Of course as happy as I was, I had to maintain my cool around all the dogs and play hard to get. That Gideon is fast! He kicked butt in his races. Gideon is a Silken Windhound from San Francisco, he has georgeous pix on his Dogster page. There were many Silkens there, mom was trying to place an order for one when I retire. Ha!! I'll show her, that's not going to happen for a loooooong time. I'm still one of the fastest flyball dogs in the area, and my straight racing career is just beginning!
