GALTx eNews: Kristina Is Running For The Hounds!

Kristina dreamed of adopting a Greyhound for years. Last summer, she and her partner, Doug, finally agreed the time was right. They submitted their application to the local adoption group, GALT New Mexico. Their family already included a rescue dog, Grete, and a rescue cat, Tommy, so they prepared for a long wait for a cat safe hound to come their way. 

To help pass the time, Kristina decided to help the hounds by running a marathon as a fundraiser for GALT. She has been training hard and will run in the Eugene marathon on Sunday, April 28, 2024. She has run several shorter races, but this will only be her fifth marathon! Kristina says she isn’t all that fast at 62 years young, but she still loves running! It’s a shared love in the family, and Doug will join her for the half marathon. 

Meanwhile, long-time Greyhound adoption volunteers in Arizona came together to launch GALT Arizona. As luck would have it, one of the group’s first deliveries from Australia included a cat safe hound, Oisin. Oisin wasn’t originally scheduled to make the flight from Australia at all. He was a last minute substitute for another hound. But that little bit of luck was all he needed. GALT Arizona and GALT New Mexico worked together to bring Oisin to his new family. Kristina and Doug picked him up on March 30th! 

Oisin will now be known as Pre, named after legendary American runner Steve Prefontaine. Pre is adjusting well to his new home and is already much loved. Please help us cheer Kristina on as she races to help the hounds and help us welcome Pre to his new forever home with a gift to Kristina’s Facebook fundraiser. If you prefer not to give on Facebook, you can give on our website. Just mention it is in support of Kristina’s marathon in your comments. Thanks to Kristina and all who give!

As of now Australia is the fastest moving continent of the planet, going northwards at around 9 cm a year. This rapid movement allowed the Australian ecosystems to shift, thanks also to a wetter and hotter climate.

The dry outback will be greatly reduced, with the shrubland now relegated to just the southwest and the Gibson desert, now replaced by the wetter savannah, while the north and the northeast will be covered in monsoon forests and rainforests, similar to those in Papua New Guinea.

This new landscape will result in a much more varied and diverse landscape, comparable to Africa.

Like in rest of the world the main rainforest trees are bamboo, while dry forests are mostly eucalyptus. On and around these trees lives a great variety of life, including tree-kangaroos, folivorous and frugivorous parrots, birds-of-paradise, echidnas, possums and gliders. The higher trophic levels are occupied by Dasyuromorphs, such as the Leopard quoll (Cyrtonyx pardus), the apex predator of the continent’s forests, and the raccoon like Queensland devil (Bambusarcotherium queenslandi), one of the smallest member of an extremely successful lineage descended from Tasmanian devils reintroduced to the mainland.

Other sarcophilids include the bear-like semiarboreal great glutton (Thylacarctos galactostethus), who’s also the Queensland devil’s closest relative, the pouch hound (Tachythylacoides macropodarium), a specialised cursorial predator that reaches speeds higher than a greyhound, the toothy badger (Hyaenomeles cynicus), a medium sized scavenger and occasional hunter, and the savannah’s apex predator, the sabertooth demon (Thylacobellator deinodon), that wrestles its prey to the ground and rips its throat out.

This predator diversity, similar to that of Africa, is only possible thanks to the great diversity in herbivores, who mostly come from three different lineages: macropods, wombats and, surprisingly, donkeys, being the last surviving perissodactyls of our world.

Although in the Pleistocene there were browsing walking kangaroos, in this epoch their niche will be taken by donkeys, some of whom will come to resemble modern day giraffes, tho most of them will remain fairly similar to their ancestors.

Among them there’s also the first hippo analogue of the continent: the Aussie kelpie or water horse.

Wombats will take the route of their extinct relatives, becoming heavy grazers, while macropods will mostly remain as they are right now, except for some derived wallaroos (the tapiroos), that became faster, to better run from the pouch hounds, shortened their arms, in a similar fashion to abelisaurids, and developed a trunk, in order to cope with their arms, now unable to help them in foraging.

idly, do you keep records of which breeds' stickers sell best? I'm curious to know if there are any trends or incentives there. Do some sell better at in person shows and some sell better on the internet?

Pls feel free to ignore it if the question is weird or makes you feel uncomfortable, though! I'm just mildly curious to know what breeds are thirstiest for merch

Ok so the online Beauceron community has been essentially paying my bills for months. Probably my most sold dog breed sticker (them and aussies I sell the most of)and my most commissioned dog breed. Idk why. I shan’t question it. All hail the beauceron

My most sold sticker is the reactive asshole design I think. Crusty white dogs has sold a few too

There are several that haven’t sold at all lol (chows, Irish terrier, Japanese akitas, Italian greyhounds)

#asks #yeah idk! #I don’t have stats…. that I can find #they r probably buried in my store settings somewhere

Y'all mfs b saying Vash is the golden retriever NO HE FUCKEN AINT

That man is a SUPER SIZED SHORT HAIRED AUSTRALIAN FUVKING SHEPHARD

Yk w h y

Excitable, loyal to a fucking fault, herds ppl, and simultaneously the dumbest and smartest thing you'll ever meet

And on this train of thought, if not an Aussie he's a goddamn Irish wolfhound but lemon flavored. Or, if I'm feeling spicy, maybe a greyhound, because he totally could outrun literally everyone on the planet. He also has the build of one.

You know I give my family some crap for how badly behaved all of our dogs have been but it’s really just the last two who are exceptionally badly behaved

Border collie who completely normal and well behaved. Sometimes barked at people passing the house.

Our greyhound was grumpy and didn’t like people who weren’t my mom, but he’d just half-growl (more of a frustrated moan) and get up and go to the corner or another room. Like an anti social old man.

Lab-spaniel who killed a bird one time when she was young but liked people and got on well with them and the other dogs. Followed bad example of next dog as pack-leader. Ripped up toys as a puppy

(BAD) Lab with an awful bark who liked to carry things around to be chased (socks, toys, etc.). Very frustrating. Barked a lot and had a horrible bark. Grumpy and didn’t really like being cuddled or anything. Would not play fetch. Had an insane hunting-instinct and killed anything that got into the yard except the snapping turtle that scared her by not moving and then barely moving. Would try to chew shiny ball Christmas ornaments and then drop them and bolt to the other side of the room when they “bit” her. Would slowly investigate them, tapping them with her foot and running away to see if they’d bite her again. Could bunnyhop a 3.5 foot fence and killed the neighbor’s chickens once. Taught the spaniel how to jump the fence as well. Was basically fine once we got the invisible fence. Rabbits eventually returned to the yard. Liked to drop bones on hardwood floors and down the stairs. Peed incessantly in the baby pool.

Lab with less ear piercing bark but who barks at everything constantly. No hunting instinct at all. Once accidentally tortured a toad she found by following it around the yard and pawing at it to watch it hop. Only dog to defeat the spray bottle method because she just loves water that much. Also defeated the invisible fence because she has the pain tolerance of a Roman god and loves running across the street to lay down and say hello to everyone she sees. Obviously it’s understandable to be nervous or scared of a dog you see running at you but I swear to god I can’t believe how good she is with strangers she isn’t running AT them to like jump or bark she gets like right up next to them and just drops to the ground to show how friendly she is and that she wants belly rubs. I’ve chased after her and watched the confusion in people’s faces as they prepare/brace for this dog to at least bark at or jump on them but she’s weirdly respectful of personal space. Like she’s doing a bit. Wags constantly and knocks things over as a result. Has trained my dad to give her fresh meat in the morning by barking. Would recognize an intruder as a friend. LOVES walks.

(EVIL) lab-setter mix who used to bait people into petting her so she could bite them. Got her as a puppy and she would sit in my lap and lick my face and then BITE by nose hard. Terrified of ear drops. Likes to chase squirrels but no interest in catching them. Hoards toys during fetch hiding them in a bush. Will interrupt other dogs playing fetch to steal and hide the toys in the same bush. Attacks other dogs unprovoked. Stole soup out of my bowl!!!!! Will walk into a room and sit with person A to be pet while making unbreaking eye contact with person B so they know she’s ignoring them. Has to be muzzled. Weirdly good with kids and puppies. Jumps on tables and counters dead-quietly to eat food. Will learn who does and doesn’t scold her for what rules and will break whatever rules she believes she will get away with.

(NOT GOOD) Aussie-Pyrenees (looks NOTHING like a Pyrenees and runs small for an Aussie) LOVES to be cuddled. Has TERRIBLE memory growled at me the first dozen times I visited or so before remembering that we lived together for a few months and that she’s seen me many many times. Easily confused and overwhelmed by other dogs. Growls at people and then runs away and hides under a table. Sometimes nips at ankles. Sometimes backs up the setter in fights against the lab. Kills butterflies. Took forever to house break. HATES walks. HATES the car. HATES the leash. Will bite and pee on it. Jumps. One time ripped the squeaker out of a toy with surgical precision.

Were Reiner to have a dog, he'd certainly got himself a tiny dog. Say, something like Italian Greyhound. An elegant creature, so delicate you'd think the slightest gust of wind would blow it away. So miniature that Reiner could easily carry it around in one hand.

Reiner would spoil the dog rotten. That'd be his baby, alright. Always carrying it around with him, or else the doggo will get lonely and start crying. Buying heaps of clothes for the colder weather (which for the dog is almost every time of the year) and the cute booties so that the paws would stay warm. Reiner wouldn't let his baby near store bought dog food after reading it's not sufficient nutrition so all the meals for the dog would be home-cooked, the check for the dog food sometimes exceeding Reiner's own. Dog parks would be a big no-no for Reiner - they are just too dangerous and the other big dogs can harm his baby so Reiner makes sure that only small dogs play with his little one.

Annie is a different story, though. She'd have a big dog half her size, a massive (at least in comparison to Annie's small stature) energetic beast. Think of Australian Shepherd. Annie chose it not only because of the agility the dog has but also because of its quiet demeanor, rarely disturbing the silence (much valued by Annie) with barking.

Annie and her dog would have jolly time training together. Trying to let out all the energy her dog has (which is abundant), there's no activity that Annie hasn't tried, from swimming together to hiking. And the cuddling sessions after a work out would be just great since the dog is so fluffy and warm. Annie would love to hug her dog and her clothes consequently would be littered with fur and at this point she can't be bothered to remove it because they would be covered in fur no matter what.

What a sight it'd be though to see both Reiner and Annie walking their dogs together. Reiner with his large frame holding his miniature greyhound and smol Annie near her Aussie (its head reaching her hips), sometimes being pulled forward by the leash whenever the dog would get to excited and run off

GALTx eNews: Welcome To The Sweet Seven!

We recently welcomed seven more Aussie hounds! This time, all of them are girls. They have some fun names too: Devine, Dolly, Dot, Barbie, Jan, Missi, and Peewee. Devine, Barbie (pictured), and Jan do not have any races to their credit, but everyone else raced at least a few races. Dot is the youngest. She just turned two in January. Dolly is the oldest. She will turn four on May 25th. Three of them are shades of fawn and four are shades of black. All of them are 100% wonderful and will make seven "Greyt" pets for lucky families!

But here's the thing: before we can send them off to forever homes, we need to get to know them a little better in foster homes. All of our foster homes are currently full, so they might have a bit of a wait. If you live near Dallas/Ft. Worth and have a spare corner for another dog bed, you can help them along their way by volunteering to be a foster family. It's temporary (just until the right forever family is found) and quite rewarding. Please email [email protected] with any questions. Keep in mind that "foster failing" is always an option.

We can't wait to share more photos of them in social media and to share their adoption stories with you. In the meantime, if you can't foster, you can still be a part of their journey by helping to pay their bills while they are in boarding with a gift to our House A Hound Fund. Thank you!

Life is slowly settling into a brand new normal after rescuing a puppy. If you’ve ever brought a puppy into your life then you know… they shake up EVERYTHING. And this dude came in like racehorse. His name is Remi, he’s now 10 months old and he’s my new giant shadow. We adopted him from a local rescue who took him in from a high kill shelter. He’s a tall, long, lanky boy and everyone’s best guess on breed is a Greyhound+Black Labrador mix...aka Greyador He’s opened up and grown so much since we first met him. He adores our aussie Marley and sticks to her like glue. He also loves couch time and snuggles and belly rubs…. And getting that long nose of his into ALL the things as he gallops about the house. When I’m working and creating, he slides under the table so he can nap at my feet… with a nose or paw always touching. We’ve both got a lot of learning to do but life definitely feels brighter with this new life bouncing in.

« Voyagez Greyhound », disait le panneau sur le flanc du véhicule, et Bill examina le chien gris tout maigrichon qui cavalait devant l’inscription. Enfin, dans un nuage de fumée noire, le car s’ébranla en direction de l’autoroute, vers le sud.

103.

Le ciel crépusculaire, piqueté de nuages pareils à des touffes de laine éparpillées, se distinguait ce jour-là par sa couleur rouge orange aussi spectaculaire qu’inhabituelle en cette saison.

111.

Il avait vu ce que les blessés fiévreux avaient dû voir quand elle se penchait pour leur prendre le pouls ou leur tâter le front : deux grands yeux bruns bordés de cils interminables, une gorge pâle emperlée de sueur, des mèches noires égarées dans son cou…

128.

Tandis qu’il s’éloignait, son rire moqueur avait résonné derrière lui. Tout comme la fumée douceâtre de son joint, matérialisation de ses railleries dans l’air matinal imprégné de rosée.

190.

Ce matin-là, il s’était réveillé en proie à une curieuse sensation de dislocation ; il lui semblait que ses membres n’étaient plus reliés les uns aux autres. Au moment où il se glissait hors du lit, il avait également eu l’impression que son cerveau gonflait dans son crâne telle une boule de pain mise à cuire. Et au fil des heures, sa tête n’avait cessé de s’alourdir. Des souvenirs oubliés depuis des années remontaient à la surface de sa mémoire, comme portés par des bulles d’air que la mélodie familière fredonnée par sa femme avait fini par crever.

267.

Il lui semblait que le chagrin s’était accumulé en lui, formant derrière ses yeux un petit lac alimenté par son cœur, et dont le niveau s’était lentement élevé pendant des années jusqu’à déborder.

269.

Je le voyais batailler pour se lever le matin, incapable qu’il était devenu d’apprécier la perspective d’une belle journée ensoleillée. Je devais lutter pour ne pas me laisser entraîner dans le tourbillon où il avait sombré et, en même temps, pour lui maintenir la tête hors de l’eau même lorsqu’il se débattait et me blessait.

272.

Ce sont ces hommes qui ne pleurent jamais dont on devrait se méfier à la chasse, car ils représentent un danger pour eux et pour les autres. Ces mêmes hommes qui, souvent, boivent au lieu de verser des larmes. Qui s’aperçoivent soudain, quand les brumes de l’alcool se dissipent, qu’ils ont dans leur ligne de mire la tête d’un copain et non celle du huit cors juste derrière, au milieu des fourrés. Qui tirent parfois sur tout et n’importe quoi. A mon avis, certains pressent la détente uniquement parce qu’ils ont épaulé leur fusil et ne conçoivent pas de le reposer sans avoir fait feu. Comme si, une fois leurs yeux fixés sur le viseur, ils jugeaient honteux de ne pas abattre leur cible. C’est étrange… Ces hommes-là finissent en général entre mes mains, lorsqu’ils ont sombré dans un coma éthylique fatal ou retourné leur arme contre eux. Et ils meurent sans même savoir pourquoi.

353.

Il étudia le chien à la lueur de la lune. Autrefois, Angel avait le poil si noir qu’il se confondait avec la nuit ; seule sa respiration trahissait sa présence. A présent, son pelage semblait constellé d’étoiles blanches et son museau s’était teinté d’ivoire. Il était entré dans la saison de la vieillesse, l’hiver de l’âge.

Le dogue allemand est un chien très grand, musclé et fort

Les représentants de la race ont une tête allongée et rectangulaire. Le pelage court et lisse peut être fauve, noir, bleu, bringé et panaché. À l'âge de plus de 18 mois, la taille minimale des chiens devrait idéalement être de 76 cm et le poids devrait être de 54 kg. Les chiennes du même âge doivent mesurer au moins 71 cm et peser 46 kg.

Des chiens ressemblant à des dogues allemands peuvent être vus dans des peintures de tombes égyptiennes datant de 2200 av. e. Ils avaient des jambes plus courtes et en termes de type de corps, ils ressemblaient à des mastiffs. Ces types de chiens se sont rendus dans de nombreux autres pays grâce aux commerçants. C'est en Allemagne que la race s'est développée davantage et est devenue ce que nous connaissons aujourd'hui. On pense que le chien de type Mastiff de l'époque a été croisé avec le Greyhound pour produire le chien agile et élancé connu sous le nom de Great Dane. Au début, ils servaient à appâter les taureaux, et à partir de 1592, des représentants de la noblesse les emportaient pour chasser les sangliers. Jusqu'aux années 1800, ce chien était utilisé par les propriétaires de domaine pour chasser le gros gibier.

Great Dane est un chien affectueux. Ils peuvent devenir très proches et dévoués à leur famille et à leurs amis qui viennent souvent leur rendre visite. Un choix idéal pour une famille active. Ce sont d'excellents gardiens et avertissent rapidement la famille de l'approche d'étrangers. La socialisation et la formation des chiots revêtent une importance particulière pour un chien aussi géant.

It's a curious thought that some of my art is so good it's attracting bots. They've latched on to a ocuple of the pictures on my art blog and I've flagged them.

Now, if you can't handle that video of a tiny, by borzoi standards, pupper saying 'fuck you' then you can't handle an adult snoot. You should also have adequate space and finances to care for 100 pounds of hairy dog. Whippets and Italian greyhounds also count as snoots but in a more compact size. We've been wanting an Italian greyhound for years.

But if you can't imagine loving a dog that says fuck you then look for something else.

And I know Bluey is taking off but don't rush out and buy a Heeler or an Aussie unless you want something that herds, does farm work, and needs a "job" to feel normal.

I'm mostly Great Dane but the Aussie and Boarder Collie in me is so strong I taught myself how to escape the nest before I had teeth. I went to live with someone who needed a companion and guard dog and probably taught myself a lot of things they teach service dogs. If mom didn't have a thing against boy dogs I would have been the one they kept to train.

I was the one they kept and I tried. I know you want me to sit but I want to give you my belly and mantis sticks.

something something You can get a mutt that looks enough like a Heeler and will make a great dog something something

I fell in love with Anh’s writing when I discovered his WeirDo series on the shelf of my local library a couple of years ago. Gwen still doesn’t know what happened to her human family but she’s determined to find out. Eagle was my little sister, and Puppy was my best friend. Over time this unlikely group become family, protecting one another and hunting together. Along the way we also meet Brutus, a strong black mastiff, and Eagle. Zip, a greyhound, who’s fast, but clumsy as a result of his diminished vision. Nosey, a labrador, who is patient and smart. She has golden-yellow fur and turquoise eyes. Puppy, a courageous wolf with a black patch on her forehead in the shape of a diamond. While Gwen can’t find any other people she does wind up meeting some animals that are just as alone as she is: She winds up alone in a forest in the middle of the night. It isn’t long before she is separated from her mother, father and her big sister, Kate, who just turned eleven. Gwen doesn’t know where they’re headed or what’s going on, only that something big and scary is happening.
