In my Memory Garden are 5 Greyhounds and 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks. At the entrance is a plaque with the Rainbow Bridge poem. The graves are framed with landscape timbers.
The Greyhounds:
Caeser...my first. He knew all the restaurents on St. George Island and would make his rounds to each knowing there were treets waiting for him.
Brindle...retired racer. She was my "booze hound". She loved beer, but her favorite was tawney port. She is burried with a can of Bud and a jar of port.
Pooh...the three legged wonder kid. He was Caeser and Brindle's son. Want some fun?? Go to the beach with 2 adult Greyhounds and 9 puppies all going in different directions!
Hannibul...also a retired racer abandoned on the streets of Eastpoint until a friend brought him to us where he found his "forever home".
Maya...daughter of Caeser, but not Brindle. She looked just like her Daddy and was "Momma" to my grandsons.
The Ridgebacks:
Rhodie...our first. From the gene pool she got a BUNCH of mastiff genes. She weighed 150lbs. of pure muscle. After the Greys passed she potty trained each new puppy we got...they soon learned not to do their business in the house
I wouldn't want to mess with that training!
Payne...Payne was a RR rescue. We adopted him right after his 1st. birthday. He had been badly abused and never really got over it. He was definately a "momma's boy"...and always shared my coffee and orange juice...sip for me...sip for him.
