Wizard & Lucy from one of our recent wanders
on the Coastal Walkway in New Plymouth.

Graeme , Kim and Kyra from New Plymouth just sent us an update on their two gorgeous greyhounds, Lucy and Wizard :

Lucy (Pure Desire) was the first new addition to our family ( we adopted her about 3 1/2 months ago) and she settled in really well - it certainly didn't take her long to become part of the family at all, even going as far as helping Kyra with her homework by eating it! We even had to write that cliche of a letter to her teacher to apologise for the dog eating the homework. Lucy has been a pleasure to have around the house and she loves to play with her toys when she is not too busy stealing shoes and stashing them in her bed or eating half the dictionary that she stole off the bookshelf. :)
Kyra had also wanted to get a cat, however after the arrival of Lucy it quickly became obvious that we'd need another greyhound...mainly because we saw no reason to get a cat when we could have 2 lunatics in the house, and so Wizard ( Wizard Appeal) arrived with his curled back ears and slightly strange ways. On first meeting Wizard we all thought he was a bit dense, but very loving. After having him in the house for about 6 weeks now it seems that he's not dense at all and just likes to walk into lamp posts and door frames to get the sympathy vote. :)

Both Wizard and Lucy get on really well together and love to have races around the back yard and thoroughly enjoy their walks together, especially the early morning one as that's when there's only one of us walking them both...and it usually means that I come back from the walk looking like a mobile cats cradle. Both Wizard and Lucy are well loved and have settled into life with us very well - we certainly wouldn't be without them now!
