My New Goal

"Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, the Devil says 'Oh Crap. She's up.' "


Bringing Cody Home

By Bobbie Hofer

Cody is an ex-racing Greyhound,
A loser so they say.
And that is how this Greyhound
Came home with me today.

I heard about some Greyhounds
Who knew only how to race.
Who need a family’s love and care
And to fill an empty space.

I went to see these Greyhounds
And to my surprise I did see
Cody, this amazing brindle boy,
Coming over to visit with me.

He put his head upon my lap
And put his gaze upon my face.
Little did I know at that time
He had filled my empty space.

He pushed his nose under my hand
Pleading for a pet.
I stroked his coat and he leaned on me
Just how lucky could I get?

This funny little brindle boy
Wondering if I knew
He was asking for nothing more
Than just a kiss or two

He has so much to offer
And so little does he want
This amazing little brindle boy
So thin, so quiet, so gaunt.

He’s been through a lot
This amazing boy
A loser so they say
And now I’m bringing Cody home
The loving starts today.


Can we be happier? Blue and Me, my other adopted Greyhound (Italian)

Cody and Ti
It's always nice to have friends that are bigger than you

About Me

Calgary, Alberta, Canada
In 2005 I adopted Cody after losing my first Greyhound. I volunteered to bring back Greyhounds for adoption from the United States. During one of these trips Cody came into my life and filled that tremendous hole left by Hampton. Since I adopted Cody, I also brought in another Greyhound, Draco, who passed away spring of 2009 from cancer. On October 31, 2008, I adopted an Italian Greyhound, Blue. My little treat. Blue is my absolute heart dog.
