Hi. This is Finn, our 1 1/2 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback. Finn loves staying cool on the steps during our daily pool time to beat the summer heat. Not many Rhodesian Ridgebacks like water, but Finn loves a good soak on a hot day! Sean & Meredith D.

This is Barra and Grainya (Grawnya) Irish Wolfhounds watching the horses next door to our place. If you are unsure how to pronounce Grainya’s name, my phone number is 228-327-7636. Grainya is the Celtic goddess of the harvest and Barra is named after my husband’s ancestral family island which is part of the upper Hebrides in Scotland.

My dog Louie, he’s 2 years old and 125 lbs! He’s sitting (or trying) to sit on the cat’s bench watching our cats go out and play in the front yard while he’s stuck inside! Sitting in the chair acting like he’s a human! He doesn’t know he’s really a dog.

Buddy is a Texas Heeler (aka Blue heeler/aussie mix) and he loves playing frisbee taking breaks every 3 or 4 throws to cool ff in his tub. Everyone that meets him can’t believe how smart and energetic he is at 9 y.o. He is my hero because he made me get up and move after heart failure…every 45 minutes to 1 hour is all he allowed me to rest then out to play catch.
