I have written about greyhound trainer Ben Craik and his lovely family before, here. This week, Ben has done yet another roadtrip to GAP Sanson, dropping off another four of his recently retired greyhounds.
Sonja has taken pictures of these lovely doggies - all four of them are just gorgeous! :) (you can click on photos to see full size)

Of course, I was SO excited when I heard that amazing racer Ben (Embezzlement)  was amongst them, I was there at the kennels in a flash, wanting to meet this amazing dog! Just look at this face:
Beautiful  Ben (Embezzlement)
His trainer Ben Craik said this about him:
Ben is such a beautiful, quiet, good tempered dog and will make a fabulous pet. Ben was also a good performer winning $51,779 in stakes and qualified for Group 1 Finals Auckland Cup and Sister City where he raced in Brisbane.

I met the lovely boy and he is also the cuddliest , softest , most affectionate doggie :) Not to mention STUNNING looking. As all Craik greyhounds, he is in wonderful condition and so ready for pet home.
Stunning Ben :)

Ben's litter brother Alex (Cool Idol) arrived to GAP at the same time. Alex did awesome on the track too (80 starts and many wins and placing), just like his brother Ben :) Alex is blue with white socks and blaze, and stunning looking too:

Cute Viv (Harajuku Girl) and Brinkley (Expenditure) arrived together with Ben and Alex, and they are both gorgeous:
