well, here's my girlfriend's new dog. which I guess means its 'our dog'... ! we finally settled on the name Ralph...took ages to figure one out but eventually settled on that. So, I hadn't seen him before we went away to the mountains the past 2 weeks and this w/e was the first time I would meet him. as a cat person its surprising that I would say this but he is awesome. we went to the beach for a run around...and he certainly ran us around! here's a few images I took:
he's about 6-8yrs old, a rescue dog but very well mannered. quite good looking too, he's a saluki...pure I think but could be wrong. very thin cause I think he got poorly fed and just worked by the gypsies that owned him. he probably got ill and as a result of constant working never had a chance to recover so got dumped. gypsies do that all the time, filthy miserable b*ggers. anyway, he's in a good home now!
he is REALLY FAST when he gets going, he's new to us so we didn't take his lead off when we took him to the beach but even so, he can really take off!
he tends to steer as you just flail around wildly behind looking like you know what he's doing if anyone asks...
and he obviously knew there was a camera about, poser! (this was whilst running about at warp factor diddly too!)
