Enter Cosmo....

Cosmo
Quiet Cosmo....
My close up!
Crazy Cosmo!

Well....
We thought we would wait awhile since the passing of Twilighter. However, an opportunity to adopt another greyhound presented itself to us. Sometimes, you just see the signs, or it is fate...whatever it is....we have Cosmo now.

Cosmo was born in Alabama the day before The Pirates birthday. (we all have birthday's that start with a "J" including Cosmo) A kennel worker at the track was not supervising the dogs properly and a female ended up pregnant. They did not know she was pregnant and kept racing her thinking she was "fat". She delivered 10 pups and only 5 survived. They were not "wanted" because they did not know who the father was...so no racing for them. He is the biggest of the 5 brothers. He was named "Scarface" at he track and then renamed "Austin" when he was delivered to the greyhound rescue here in town.

We went to the pet store to buy a light for The Pirate's betta fish named "Sushi" and ran into the adoption group. Cosmo was very friendly, licked the kids and seemed very happy. We just had to take him home! He is very FAST and HYPER...but is typical puppy.

He is very cute and everyone wants to see a greyhound pup...he is an oddity. It has taken some of the attention off the Mermaid! It hasn't phased her a bit!
Wish us luck!
