I'm Ham, the adopted greyhound. I was born in 1999 in Waco, TX and was adopted on March 1st, 2001 from the Lake Geneva dog track.
I am a real wild and BIG (100 pounds)guy and really test my master's patience. I'm such a curious doggie, I get into all kinds of trouble and get yelled at all the time, but that is
the only way I will know what NOT to do! On my first day home, I jumped into my master's redwood hot tub. It was 100 degrees, so that was a real thrill, but my
master had to pull me out and it took two beach towels and a hair dryer to get me all dry again. In my first week, I ate two pairs of leather gloves, one slipper, a container of
fish food, a small cactus, my master's reading glasses and nearly got the whole slab of corn beef they were going to have for
dinner!!! Oh well, I tried. I follow my master everywhere, as she takes very good care of me. I get long walks 3 times in the morning and one at noon and 3 in the
late afternoon! She also feeds me and plays with me, so I think I will like this place.
There is a large fenced yard and I can run like crazy. I've worn a big oval "track" in the lawn from where I like to run.
I've been in my home a few years now (and I'm still a wild and crazy guy!) I have eaten 5 rugs, a $20 bill, the TV guide, 5 pairs of mom's shoes and 4 doggie beds! I am a big "brat" but
my mom loves me anyway! She just comes and takes all the rugs back when I drag them into my bed. I'm a collector, just like her and collect the carpets from around
the house and pile them up.
Here are some pictures of me in my new home.
