Sorcha's scarf

[sasha_feather]

I don't think I yet shared this photo of Sorcha's scarf that my mom made for her. It is a polar fleece "neck gator" (a closed loop) that fits underneath her coat. I picked out the pattern. It is so cute that I sometimes leave it on her for hours.

So cuuuute! Aw she's gorgeous!

[sasha_feather]

She is the greatest! :D There are more pictures if you click the photo-- it takes you to my Flickr page.

Either I did not know, or I had forgotten you had such a beautiful pup. Is she a full-size grey or an Italian?

[sasha_feather]

She is a large full-size Greyhound! I have had her since April and she is 9 years old. You can read more about her at my "sorcha" tag if you like (before I named her I used "dog" and "greyhound" tags), and there are more pictures-- if you click the photo it takes you to my Flickr page. Is that your dog in your icon? What a cutie!

It sounds like your challenges with Sorcha have been similar to some of those I've had with Summer. Summer's anxiety was so bad that she was on both Xanax and Paxil (I think it was) for a while; they were also supposed to help with her fear aggression, but that didn't work as well.

My girl is 10, and the six-year anniversary of her coming into my life takes place this July.

That's so pretty!

Stripes are very genteel. I like 'em.

[sasha_feather]

My mom joked that the stripes are slimming, to which I responded maybe we should put the stripes the other way, to make her look a little plumper. :)

Mine came with stripes (brindle), lol. Just meant kids asked if he was a hyena.

Also the scarf is super cute. Mom made our dog a coat, but for his neck we just adapted a balaclava/ski mask nobody was using by cutting a hole in the top.

I like brindles, they look so badass. :D

She and the scarf are both adorable. Greyhounds are so great. *^^* (One of my musician friends has a song called "I Want to Adopt a Greyhound", so I always think of that when I see one.)

[sasha_feather]

Neat! :D

[boxofdelights]

What a beauty!

[sasha_feather]

:D

Oh wow, it makes her look so bohemian and glamorous!

[sasha_feather]

Bohemian! Awesome. :D

I have heard you writing about your pup forever but did NOT realize it was this damned cute.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sasha_feather]

You can see how it was love at first sight, at least on my part. :D

[littlebutfierce]

OMG that is seriously cute. :D

[sasha_feather]

:D :D

And let me testify that Sorcha is the softest dog ever. The scarf is quite styling — and I think your Mom had your wardrobe in mind when she chose the colors, it matches many of your coats!

(The picture makes me want to come up with a necklace to ride on top of the neck gaiter, but I don't think she needs anything else on her delicate skin.)

((Lucy is pretending we're not talking about a different dog.))

[sasha_feather]

I chose the colors; I guess that makes my tastes predictable. :D

Your dog is such a hipster :D

[sasha_feather]

lol! :D

[amadi]

Your dog is officially more stylish than I am. I should learn from her seemingly effortless grace and sleekness. :)

Seriously, she is such a love. ♥

AWWWWWW.
