Hi fellow greys and their people.

My name is Michael, and my wife Linda and I will be moving down to the Charlotte area from New Jersey shortly. We have two greys, Cairo who is 8, an Budy who is 4. Both were adopted through Greyhound Friends of New Jersey, and both were broken leg dogs.

I've taken a job in Charlotte and have temporarily moved into an apartment here until our house in NJ sells. Linda & the boys are still in NJ for now.

We look forward to meeting other greys and their owners once we settle down here.

Welcome,
If you need any help with the dogs while you get settled, let us know.
We look forward to meeting you all.

Hello,

We also moved from NJ in Aug. 2006 Although we live on the east coast of NC. My girls also adopted through GFNJ. Hope all goes well with the move. This is a greyt site!

Welcome to WMH, be sure to check out the playgroups in the area. One in Charlotte and one in Kannapolis, We would be glad to have You and Your hounds attend.

Hi, and welcome. Look forward to meeting your family. We have a very active group here in the Charlotte area with M&G's and other fun things every weekend.

Hello and welcome! We moved here from MA a little over a year ago. Keep your eye on the 'Charlotte' page, and join the group at a monthly dinner sometime!

Hello Michael! Welcome to Charlotte! Glad to see you made it to the forum. Hopefully you can make one of our events to start meeting some local greyhound owners. I will be posting February information tomorrow.

Thanks for the warm welcome. Now that the feds have lowered the interest rates again, I hope we get some activity on our house up in New Jersey. I'll be glad when my wfe can move down here to join me. I miss seeing the boys every night when I get home (I miss her too LOL).

Here's a photo of our two....

Well all, its been a long 10 months, but Linda & I finally sold our place in NJ. On Sept 30th, her and Cairo joined me down here in Charlotte. Cairo handled the long car ride surprisingly well and seems to be settling in at the apartment quite nicely. We will start looking for a new home within the next few weeks, but we are also considering building if we don't find anything to our liking.

The only sad note is that my grey Buddy did not make the trip south with us. Buddy started exhibiting some severe behavior issues while I was down here and our vet in NJ (who has several greys) said he was suffering from seperation anxiety. Buddy's original foster mom offered to take him for a bit to see if there was anything she could do to help him. She has many greys and he always enjoyed staying with her when we were traveling. I'm happy to say he is doing much better now and she offered to keep him indefinitely while we get settled down here. I miss him so much, but at least I know he is doing well and is happy once again.

We look forward to meeting you all in the very near future.

Michael

I know you are glad to have your family together again. It is a buyer's market right now so happy house hunting.

Welcome to you both! Bring Cairo to playgroup one weekend. There is information in the Charlotte section on the two playgroups in this area.

And we are gathering for dinner on Monday, Oct 13th. The dinner is at Mac's Speed Shop that has wonderful bar-b-cue. Its a great place with wonderful food. If you would like to join us and need directions send me a note with your location.
