very rare to get all monks in one photo! 2 marmosets, 2 coton top tamarins and a capuchin =) We love them all

The new guy has now had a complete weekend to get settled in.  Couple of two mile walks with Juno and the pair have settled in wonderfully with each other.  They neither pay much attention to the small dogs; but that's the biggest reason I thought Juno needed a big buddy of her own.

Here's Juno today prancing around the yard while I was adjusting her collar:

And here's Marley after I'd awakened him from his nap inside the gazebo:

Here's a decent shot of the pair together along with the little blonde IG.  The new dog Marley really is the large economy sized Greyhound.  Full head taller and just over twenty pounds heavier than Juno.  Greyhounds surely aren't the biggest dogs out there.  Not even close.  But for a Grey ninety pounds is a good sized dog. 

So far he's still got some playful puppy in him too.  A very happy camper.  Still taking nearly every step I do when he's away but he's gotten much more content in just a day's time.

I hope they'll be a good pairing for each other.  Juno (the dog here first) needed a buddy her own size.  A few of the Greyhound GTGs taught me that.  The little dogs of my moms that predated Juno were too often just disregarded.  But Juno really liked meeting the big boys at the GTGs.

The first day Juno was, maybe, a little jealous.  Juno loves to go for her walks and loves her several minute runs around the yard a couple of times a day.   Aside from that, however, she is the laziest dog I have ever had .  So when the new boy came in and, despite being the same age, seemed to still have a little playful puppy left in him Juno seemed a bit flummoxed by the new activity and the way Marley came for extra attention as he was trying to find his way around the new house.

A couple of long walks together on their leashes helped that a lot though.  By 24 hours in they were running together in the yard and she was going out of her to engage with him.  First night at home together they slept at separate ends of the house.  Second night in they were together on the same pile of dog pillows.  So all is good dogville .

Very cool Don, I used to go watch (and bet) the Greyhounds race in Commerce City, CO. when I lived in the Denver area for 15 years, they sure wanted to catch that rabbit.

Thanks Mike.  I admit I like watching them run around the yard.  The pair here have been together long enough now that they're running and playing together and that is fun to watch (that is when it's not during the 18-21 hours a day they are vegged out).  And.... hmmm.... for whatever reason I just never see rabbits in the yard....

Pet skunk huh? Pretty cool. Sorry for the loss.
My little buddy's (mini schnauzer) kidneys are failing. Dude is a tough SOB but I won't let him degrade too much. I can't do that to him.
