At the Greyhound Reunion


On the 9th, we went to the 14th Annual Greyhound Reunion at Gulf Greyhound Park. We were there two years ago, just after we adopted Gert but missed it last year due to my travels.

The first picture is Tucker trying to get the rabbit! They ran some practice races just after we got there. Tucker was very excited! He barked and then jumped up onto the table. When the race was over, he had no clue how to get back down so I had to lift him down.


The previous years the reunion had the run of one floor of the track betting areas. This year the other floor was closed due to damage from Ike so there wasn't much for an open space for the dogs. This made the whole thing less fun. We were in the little spaces usually used for bettors to sit and watch the races with dogs laying in the aisles.

We all got to go out on the track and have the dogs introduced. As part of that we were able to get a good look at those wascally wabbits that the dogs chase.
