Orion (boy child)  and Cleo (Shefaro Borzoi girl)  are getting to be quite good friends. Except we have to sometimes watch him with her. He bit her foot the other day. Lately he also has been trying to eat food out of her dish. The other day he was playing in her water dish. I videotaped that-it was funny! But, what we love about her, is that she doesn't seem to mind when he is all over her. Also, he doesn't care if she gets excited and knocks him over. I have some new pictures that are on our camera. Cleo also starts puppy class in two weeks. She also goes to the vet on Wednesday for shots. But other than that-things are pretty much the same. How are things going with you? Any shows? Have you placed the puppies? Let us know how everything is! I hope you had a great holiday!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Take care!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Christine:)</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From: Judy and Tony </B></div> <div> <B>To: Sherry Faye Rodarmor</B></div> <div> <B>Subject: Re: Katya</B></div> <div> <B>December 26, 2002 </B></div> <div> <B>Sherry, </B></div> <div> <B>Here is the Christmas picture we had taken of Katya, Santa and our Grandson Brandon.

The girls were wonderful travelers.</B></div> <div> <B>Thumbelina is quite a character, she played like a little puppy with everything that she could find in the van, and slept with her head on Maggie when she napped. I guess that they are already good friends. They aren't sure yet about the snow, and walk very timidly in it. Maggie has already picked a corner in the kitchen and has claimed it as hers. You were right --she is a tail wagger !! They have also seen the cats and totally ignored them, so far things are going great. This is a big adjustment for them and I hope they will be happy here. Thank you for such beautiful girls!! We will get some pictures taken and send them to you, also the contract. Thanks so much!! We will update you soon--Mags and Sax,</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>We really loved Texas, and hope to return soon. </B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From: "ree c" </B></div> <div> <B>To: <</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro@ev1.net</B></FONT><B>> </B></div> <div> <B>Subject: Leonardo </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>> Hi Sherry,</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> I hope you had a terrific holiday season and New Year. I had a great time </B></div> <div> <B>> over the holiday's and had a chance to show off Leonardo to the family. </B></div> <div> <B>> They all loved him.</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> I just have to tell you about this sweet boy.   He  wags his tail and prances around when he sees me in the </B></div> <div> <B>> morning. He has even jumped up on the bed a few times. He likes Bob, (the </B></div> <div> <B>> Dane) and the two get along just fine. He is still unsure about the cat. </B></div> <div> <B>> One day during the first week I heard him crying and yelping and hurried to </B></div> <div> <B>> see what was the matter. I thought that something fell on him or worse. </B></div> <div> <B>> Well, as it turned out the cat had him cornered in my closet.LOL But that is </B></div> <div> <B>> changing too, yesterday they were sharing my bed. She is a sweet cat and </B></div> <div> <B>> when she eyeballs Leonardo I know she wants to cuddle against that glorious </B></div> <div> <B>> coat.</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> I take him with me a lot. He likes his walk/jogs. Funny what people say </B></div> <div> <B>> when they see him...He's been called a long haired greyhound, an afghan, a </B></div> <div> <B>> saluki and more. I love telling them about Borzoi and what they are all </B></div> <div> <B>> about and what sweethearts they are. I love the way they walk, it looks </B></div> <div> <B>> like his is literally floating over the ground.</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> Leonardo will stand still in front of me for hours and require that i pet </B></div> <div> <B>> him. He waits for his daily egg each morning and is the most mannerly dog I </B></div> <div> <B>> have ever met. he is so gentle while taking his treats. He eats the yolk </B></div> <div> <B>> first, then the white and now leaves the shell. He even carries it to his </B></div> <div> <B>> big fluffy bed before he starts to eat it.</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> Sherry, I absolutely adore him. Thank you so much for making this the most </B></div> <div> <B>> wonderful Christmas ever. I know I keep promising photo's. They will come </B></div> <div> <B>> and there will be several.</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> I saw your new puppies on the web site. They are beautiful and carry with </B></div> <div> <B>> them such promise!!! I must say that through your misfortune I have been </B></div> <div> <B>> most incredibly blessed. Thank you again for my new love. I adore him.</B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> Sincerely Ree</B></div> <div> <B>></B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <bR> <div> <B>> ----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From: Sherrie Brasell</B></div> <div> <B>To:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro</B></FONT><B> </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Subject:</B><B> Re: Diva </B></div> <div> <B>Diva is so cute and smart. She is my shadow crossing the creek and running in the grass flat out. She is so fast. She lays on my feet when I wash dishes and collects shoes and other interesting items for her beds. She doesn't chew them....so far. She did steal a placemat from off the table at Moms for her collection. It had plates Mom bought in Austria on it. They didn't do well when they hit the tile. Mom wasn't mad-she loves her too.  I have pictures on my camera but Jim has to do something with the port- The computer doesn't think it's connected. Will send pictures soon.This is a great dog!

My mom and dad are very proud of me because I am now scratching at the door when I want to go outside and go potty. They are also learning to listen to me, because I tell them when I need to go. I really enjoy playing with balls, socks and pretty much everything. I love to go outside and play in the leaves. I am just an energetic little girl who is having a great time exploring. I also shocked my mom when I climbed all the way up the stairs. I don't like being left in my crate, or in the kitchen when the baby gate is up. It's sort of ok when mom is in there with me. But I don't like it when she leaves for a second. She even had to blow dry her hair in the kitchen with me. My favorite spot in the house is the living room, because I get to play with all of the fun toys and watch the really big tv. I love my new brother, but I'm not so sure what he thinks of me. He likes to watch me, but doesn't always like to play. I also had my first visit with my vet. He is very nice, and said I was in perfect health and had beautiful conformation. However, I had to get a shot, and take a heartworm pill. But I handled it like a trooper. Mom says that she is going to get some pictures developed tomorrow. Do you believe that she already took a whole roll of me? I am having a great time, and my new mom and dad absolutely love me! I am also learning how to walk on a leash, but am not so sure about that. But once I learn that, mom and dad are going to take me for walks around the neighborhood. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Write soon, and give everyone a hug and a kiss from me!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Love,</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Miss Cleo aka Queen of the Mason's</B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From:  BClash</B></div> <div> <B>To:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro@ev1.net</B></FONT><B> </B></div> <div> <B>Subject:</B><B> Oso Panda</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Hello! ...Panda is doing extremely well as is just a perfect dog for me.

He is quite an ambassador for his breed-- dressage horse people are very attracted to classy gorgeous animals, and several wanted one after meeting him, so I did my best to explain that he is probably not very typical, and explained about your breeding program. You should be very proud of him, I most certainly am. He knows several words (come, sit, etc) and is the most obedient loving dog I could ever hope to have. My mother is dying right now, and I have found his big furry presence quite a comfort. Thank you again for letting me have him in my life.

Its a little warmer today--10 above zero. Thumbelina continues to act like a puppy-she has a huge collection of toys and also has a weird attraction for towels. You cannot find a towel on any racks in this house, they are all in her bed! As soon as you put one out see takes it. Maggie is more refined and has found her way up to the couch. They have both spent quite a bit of time out in the yard today running with Dakota, my old greyhound.

Sasha was a tall borzoi, but he would crouch when approaching people who were afraid and gently put his head on their laps patiently waiting for them to respond.  Spastic people and people with screeching voices did not affect him.  He simply looked at them with understanding of their true beauty. The beauty, that we often do not see ourselves. People responded with the same understanding.  It was truly a privilege to witness.  Sometimes miracles happen when you least expect them.  Sasha is gone now, but I am thrilled to find that you continue to provide dogs who can give this useful service.</B></div> <div> <B>     </B></div> <div> <B>    I want to applaud your use of your dogs in this kind of work.  The dog deserves the highest praise, the breeder of such a fine animal deserves my respect and the people who receive their affection my admiration..</B></div> <div> <B>    Thank you for your efforts in this field.</B></div> <div> <B>     </B></div> <div> <B>    Pam Reid</B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B>     </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>From: Mary Hult</B></div> <div> <B>To: Sherry Faye Rodarmor</B></div> <div> <B>Re: Smudge</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Well...he is the HIT of neighborhood!

I couldn't help but just laugh!  I think we are a pair!  We went to the Jeep, played outside then headed home.  He laid on my lap for the 40 minute ride, I sang to him, massaged his feet, held him the whole way.  He is absolutely gorgeous - more than I anticipated.  Once we got home, I put him out immediately, as he had not gone the whole trip.   You would have thought he was already house broken.  I just took some pictures, will send them tomorrow.  Just finished playing outside and having a treat . . .

They go outdoors and chase each other, and they try to encourage her to play, but she hasn't taken off with them yet. She met our great dane next door through the fence.

However, after a freak and disturbing accident...after a series of x-rays, consultations and no news that gave us reason to believe Shadda would recover from the injuries without enduring a great deal more pain, multiple surgeries and 10-12 months of debilitation, we decided to say goodnight to our friend and we watched him go to sleep for the last time on August 20th at 3:48 in the afternoon.  We miss him deeply. We’ve never experienced such a bond and loving relationship with an animal as we did with Shadda. He was truly our child and there is no replacement for him. However, once the grief has passed we may give consideration to finding another wonderful Borzoi companion. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>My husband and I ... are not looking for a show dog, but rather a Borzoi from a good line with the best of characteristics and temperament.

I have been awe struck at your furry children. I have also looked at your adoption form. You are people who care about one of God's most beautiful creatures, the Borzoi. I was loved by one of those majestic creatures for twelve years. During that time I came into contact with several other Borzoi, one I spotted from the car and pretty well tracked down the owner just to talk to her about her dog. Of the Borzoi I have seen, none of them seemed to be as beautiful and my Annistazzia. I say that with the love of a mom and the assurance of the books on Borzoi I read before I brought her home at the tender age of 10 weeks. </B></div> <div> <B>While I was looking through your website, I noticed your Shefaro clones, well if there is anything to this then Annistazzia and Vida and several of your white with lemon colored Borzoi are clones. Who came first I cannot say. Annistazzia, was born in August of 1991. I would have included a picture, but it seems that all of my electronic machinery to make that possible, has decided to go on strike. </B></div> <div> <B>For the twelve years I was blessed with her, she was the "poster girl" of good health. It was her last year 2003 that she became very ill and eventually, after talking to my veterinarian I had to make a very sad decision. I am writing to you, now because I have missed her very much, and while looking at your site, I saw Vida, and her puppies born on my birthday, only in my case a few years ago. I have long wanted to find the breeders, whom I owed a great deal of happiness to. You see Annistazzia was a rescue puppy. If somehow she, or her parents came from your wonderful home, it would be like having her legacy live on. She never had any puppies, I chose not to have her spayed, at my vet's suggestion. I took proper care to prevent any unwanted little ones, even though, once when she was in season, a black Pomeranian seemed to take her fancy. She was sitting in the entryway of my home, and he was wagging his tail at her through the screen. What a site! </B></div> <div> <B>During her lifetime, we traveled across the United States, two times, she even let me drive, that is after she got out of the driver's seat. </B></div> <div> <B>She was the roller-blade puller for my youngest son, until she pulled him into a very big bush. Her need for exercise was equal to my son's need for letting go of some of his excess energy. He is now in the US. Army, he just made Sergeant, his older brother is also in the Army and he is waiting to become a fulfledged Master Sergeant. I also have a very lovely daughter, who has had many pictures taken of her in prom gowns with Annistazzia at her side. I tell you this because, Annistazzia was spoiled with extra love when these three children went out into the world to make their lives as adults. They are the ones who told me that she was very spoiled, I concluded that they must also have been spoiled. </B></div> <div> <B>Annistazzia, was one of the sweetest and most patient creatures I have ever known. And one day I hope to have another Borzoi. After reading your stories about your Borzoi, I can only think about Shefaro Borzoi as the ideal. </B></div> <div> <B>Thank you for your wonderful site, and I can only envy you the joy of so many Borzoi and the beauty of the land that they live in. </B></div> <div> <B>Sincerely, </B></div> <div> <B>Janet Miller </B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From: "ree c" </B></div> <div> <B>To: <</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro@ev1.net</B></FONT><B>> </B></div> <div> <B>Subject: Leonardo </B></div> <bR> <div> <B> hi Sherry, </B></div> <div> <B> Just wanted to send you an up-date on Leonardo.. </B></div> <div> <B> Well, lots has changed..I am no longer in Az .I moved to Ca this fall (onto a 30 acre ranch) and so far it has been a perfect match.

Here is a Legalas update.. Sorry it has been so long... but have been really busy at work and of course spending time with legs. He became a doggie school dropout due to job which kept scheduling me on class days.. He did learn how to sit and lay down.. Not too good at staying ... too much to do very busy dog. He and thumper like to play with stuffed toys and tear them up.. Thumper is amazed that legs can now pull him around. Legs can now look into my eyes when standing on his hind legs...His coat is beautiful.. eats lots of eggs... sometimes eats them all out of the pot (big boy) His tail is really plumey. He still has africa on his side and is almost as big (LOL). My sister was here a couple of weeks ago and he fell in love and slept with his head on the pillow next to her. He does now take up the whole side of the bed..He has learned to open the gates to the fence so i put locks on them.... I keep meaning to take pictures now that I have camera, but camera always not in hand when particuallry cute....Now weather is better perhaps can get some good outside shots of him and the hole they are digging to china. He is just the greatest dog... He gives hugs and leans on you. and now when he "sits" on my lap he just puts his middle in it the legs are on the floor. Hard to believe that he is almost a year old. Will have to have a party for him and invite some doggy friends.. Have to meet some of course... other than thumper. (best bud). He is gentle. Also very fey...like a fairy... very delicate..and he doesnt walk...just floats along. He likes to go in the car.. still gets sick and feels poorly for a while after...Nothing like diving down the road holding his snout but we appear to be making progress.   He is such an awesome dog.. Last night we were at grandmas and legs was cleaning the dishes in her sink.. Very helpful around the house. Now if I could just get him to learn to vacuum.... already has taught us the importance of totally clean and bare counter tops and to put our shoes up when not on feet. and all kinds of other helpful cleaning tips... Happy Easter again...Nancy and Legs</B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>-----Original Message-----</B></div> <div> <B>From: Melanie </B></div> <div> <B>Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 9:17 AM</B></div> <div> <B>To: 'shefaro'</B></div> <div> <B>Subject: Touching base!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Hi Sherry!</B></div> <div> <B>Just sending you an e-mail to let you know how great things are going</B></div> <div> <B>with the new puppy. I finally picked a definite name for him, and it's</B></div> <div> <B>not Mishkin. I decided to name him Niko (short for Nikolai). It's not</B></div> <div> <B>the most original name for a borzoi I know, but it suits him I think.</B></div> <div> <B>It just came out of my mouth one day when I called for him, and it</B></div> <div> <B>stuck. So if you want to change any paperwork to reflect this new name,</B></div> <div> <B>feel free!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Niko is doing just GREAT. He is happy, healthy, and a ton of fun. He</B></div> <div> <B>follows me around like a shadow, and seems very comfortable in his new</B></div> <div> <B>home. I swear he's grown at least 3 inches in height and length since</B></div> <div> <B>he arrived! He's climbing and descending stairs now (which he could not</B></div> <div> <B>do this time last week), torturing the cat, chewing on everything like a</B></div> <div> <B>true puppy, and trying his hardest to master potty-training. The</B></div> <div> <B>weather has been so awful here (pouring rain daily for a week now), it's</B></div> <div> <B>impossible to spend much time outdoors...so a few accidents are to be</B></div> <div> <B>expected. And you should hear him Sherry! He's very vocal. He's not</B></div> <div> <B>really a barker, but he sure loves to talk to me in what I call his</B></div> <div> <B>grumble-voice. He sounds like a moaning old man....especially when he</B></div> <div> <B>sleeps. It's as if he purrs or something! So cute!!!!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Anyway, I just wanted to let you know how happy we both are, and to tell</B></div> <div> <B>you how grateful I am to have such a quality new friend.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Check out his pictures! He just LOVES that hat (and yes I am being</B></div> <div> <B>sarcastic). Since this photo session, he has pretty much demolished it.</B></div> <div> <B>So much or playing dress-up! Photo # 102 0256.JPG is just too cute</B></div> <div> <B>though!!!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Melanie </B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>Victoria Eddy</U></B></FONT><B> </B></div> <div> <B>To:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>shefaro</U></B></FONT><B> </B></div> <div> <B>Sent:</B><B> Saturday, December 04, 2004 4:38 PM </B></div> <div> <B>Subject:</B><B> Diego's new fam </B></div> <div> <B>Thought you might like to see some pictures of Diego from last night. He was pretty tense and nervous at first, but he slept with me (Michelle) all night and was fine. He's even started playing with the other dogs and racing around with them...and he loves the snow. He's taking a nap in the sunny kitchen right now after helping us put up some Christmas lights outside. He's such a cutie. He cries whenever we're out of site and if someone walks away. So far he's been a good boy though! Doesn't need to go out every 30 minutes like the little Aussie puppy thank goodness!

My wife, kids and I couldn't be happier. Once we got him home I let him run around outside for a while to get acclimated and do any business he had to do and then I brought him in the house. We all sat in a circle and let him come up to us, let him sniff us, and we all got to know each other. The kids were way too excited to go to bed but after letting them and the puppy get used to each other they finally went to bed at 9:45. He sniffed around the house and right now found a comfortable spot and is sleeping. We absolutely love him and I want to thank you for sending us such a beautiful dog. I've attached a picture of my wife and I with the puppy but I plan on sending you pictures with the kids as soon as possible. </B></div> <div> <B>Take care, </B></div> <div> <B>Rob </B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B><FONT SIZE="1" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From: lara </B></div> <div> <B>To: "shefaro" <</B><FONT SIZE="1" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro@ev1.net</B></FONT><B>> </B></div> <div> <B>Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2005 10:18 PM </B></div> <div> <B>Subject: pups have arrived! </B></div> <div> <B>> </B></div> <div> <B>> Sherry, </B></div> <div> <B>> The girls are here and they are wonderful.

He does not like to be away from us unless he is with the collie or the sheltie and he likes the tile floor inside because it cool. On the way up he was really good. nothing happened and he just slept the whole time. We are heading back to New Mexico tomarrow and will get everything done this week. We have not named the puppy yet but should have a name settled on soon. he does like to chase the other dogs but when he does not know what is going on he just sits there and watches. He is a really smart dog. He has learned to sit for a treat from watching the others. We want to register the puppy with the base vet when we get back so if there is a way to get the shot records soon it would be appreciated. Thanks a lot and we will send you some pictures when we get back to New Mexico.

I'm just learning how to use this camera. They are so cute--animated while vacillating between coy, demure, timid and devilish, stealthy. When Zorro (the bigger blaze) knocked Diego (the smaller one) into the pool he was frantic, pacing and whimpering, and right at Steven's feet when he grabbed Diego up in a towel and brought him to me. They love and cuddle each other, then turn around and gnaw of each other--lots of yelping going on---their teeth are sharp and they bite each other pretty hard.  They are clown hounds, bubba boys, and sanitation engineers. They eat dirt, plants, sticks, bark, the deck, snails (they seem particularly fond of these), paper towels, buckets, my robe (while I'm in it!), and the list is growing each new area they find to explore .</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <bR> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#3333FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>Virginia </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>To:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro</B></FONT><B> </B></div> <div> <B>Sent:</B><B> Thursday, August 18, 2005 10:33 AM </B></div> <div> <B>Subject:</B><B> YOU </B></div> <div> <B>I was looking at your website and it shows demonstratively how much the owners you have chosen for your kids love them. and what good lives, because of your careful choices your kids have.</B><B> </B></div> <div> <B>Sherry, you are really an inspiration to others with the love and care you have chosen to take to make this magnificent breed happy, not only in the correct breeding which produces physical health, which in turn produces freedom and calmness of mind - but the joy you have introduced into the lives of your borzoi owners and the relevant joy that has translated itself to your pups is unprecedented in my travels.....and I have travelled and have seen lots of borzois.</B><B> </B></div> <div> <B>I just wanted to say this.</B><B> </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Kindest personal regards</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Virginia</B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From: <</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>carlina</B></FONT><B>> </B></div> <div> <B>To: <</B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B>shefaro@ev1.net</B></FONT><B>> </B></div> <div> <B>Sent: Wednesday, August 24, 2005 12:55 AM </B></div> <div> <B>Subject: Puppyfind.com - Regarding Pup Options </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>> It is wonderfull to see a breeder carefully monitoring buyers of their pups.

You gave us lots of treats, biscuits and cheese to give to the dogs and let us share in the extraordinary beauty and character of your world-famous pets. One of the main reasons I came back twice, in addition to wanting to take more time to bond with the dogs, that I was going to take with me, was to be with you and your calm and ordered beautiful environment.

Your breed line is the best and most consistent that I have ever seen.  Despite the heat of Texas, your dogs have the most amazing coats and their character is gentle and friendly.   They have adapted so very well in my home. As you know they had a 16 hour trip by air being shunted back and forth because of the hurricane and Houston's refusal to take animals at the last minute. I was totally amazed at how they adapted to that too.

Cisne LIKES my cooking, and has been eating, she hasn't really touched the dry food...It has been raining for DAYS here, therefore the girls just go outside to their business, then come in. They have been playing indoors , Cisne likes all the stuffed toys, and parades around with them. Tosca is so thrilled to play with her,,,it is so cool to see them on the floor rolling around together. Tosca also LOVES to groom her, licking her ears and snuggling and submitting to her at feeding time....Tova sniffs her, and goes walkies on the brace, but doesn't play with her (which is to be expected with an older bitch).... I am trying to make sure to show afffection to ALL of them, so there is no jealousy.</B></div> <div> <B>When I return home, I am now greeted by THREE jumping happy borzoi, the sad part is when I am pulling out of the drive,,,to see 3 sad faces looking out the window!!</B></div> <div> <B>Thats the update for now,,,,and I will send pics when I can.</B></div> <div> <B>P.</B></div> <div> <B>************************************************</B></div> <div> <B>----- Original Message ----- </B></div> <div> <B>From:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>Mary Logan</U></B></FONT><B> </B></div> <div> <B>To:</B><B> </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>shefaro</U></B></FONT><B> </B></div> <div> <B>Sent:</B><B> Saturday, October 15, 2005 11:57 AM </B></div> <div> <B>Subject:</B><B> Re: Rodrigo!! </B></div> <div> <B>Dear Sherry, </B></div> <div> <B>I did go to your website.
