Kelly is a retired racing greyhound. She enjoys walks, bossing Thorulf around, stealing food off the counter, naps, belly rubs, and coursing. She gets very excited when we bring out our reenactment garb, because she associates it with going for a ride, meeting new people, and maybe going coursing. Thorulf is a retired racing greyhound. He enjoys meeting new people, being petted, chewing things to oblivion, and snuggling (despite the fact that he's too big to be a lap dog). He also enjoys coursing.

This page shows various photos of our hounds, presented as lighthearted photo essays. The photo essays are shown from newest to oldest as a courtesy to our frequent visitors.  Because these are photo-intensive pages, I include the page size as a warning for those on dial-up Internet.
