Saffy and Dave. Two black greyhounds trying to make sense of the world, spreading love and causing mayhem. #SkyHounds Following in the footsteps of the late, great, Honey Greyhound.
Saffy: Today we had 5 minutes of sunshine and then rain nearly all day. ☹️ We dodged the rain for long enough to have some off lead shenanigans at an enclosed field. Dave exhausted himself. He's so tired, he's scoffed his dinner and then collapsed. You've heard of bed fail, well this is sofa fail. 😁

Dave: Happy birthday to me! I am 6 years old today. When I see a pheasant I get wildly excited, so I've had a pheasant themed birthday. I got a honking pheasant toy, a raw pheasant birthday tea and a pheasant and wild boar sausage dessert. Best day ever!

Dave: Today I went on a pointy walk and I was "Very good boy Dave!". 😊 I'm now waiting for a roast lamb dinner. 😋
Saffy: It was a Christmas walk. Where was our Christmas attire?! 🤨
Dave: I don't think mum's ready for Christmas. She probably isn't ready for today. Just be grateful we're getting fed.

Saffy: Happy #flapsoutfriday to all who observe. I'm counting down to Crispmouse - the most wonderful time of the year, allegedly. Poor mum is very confused by her gin advent calendar. Apparently it's 13th December already. 😂

Saffy: It was a festival of squirrels on the common today. The blighters were everywhere! Unfortunately there's no chance of sneaking up on them when you're with a big idiot who yelps like a demented poodle every time he spots one. 🙄

Mum: I've booked a new enclosed dog field. It has a grassy meadow to run in and forest trails to explore. How lovely! 😊
Us: We've forgotten how to greyhound. We're swamp dogs now. We're just gonna spend the whole hour doing this. 🤣🤣🤣

Saffy: Two years ago today mum signed my adoption papers and I reluctantly accepted that I was here for good. However, whilst I may live with peasants I firmly believe that I am not one by birth. Somewhere out there a royal family is searching for their missing princess. 😢

Dave: What a wonderful day for late afternoon blighter spotting! I had my excited ears on! 😃
Saffy: We were forced to walk for miles. It was grim. Dave spotted a rabbit and lost his tiny mind. 🙄

Happy #FlapsOutFriday! Apparently it's been a heck of a week. Mum is now unemployed/retired. She's celebrating the fact that she'll now be able to start drinking at lunchtime! We're hoping she'll pull herself together, work out what her skill-set is, and do some kibble earning before we all starve!

Mum is wondering where the years went. Teenage Manchild (AKA Short One) needs a new name, because today is his 20th birthday. His teens have officially expired. Happy birthday! We love you. ❤️

Saffy: Today on Holidays from Hell, two greyhounds were crammed into a wooden box being dragged by a fire breathing death monster. They ended the day by being forced to go for a walk on a beach. Horrible.
Dave: Oh my dog! My first ever train ride. Woo hoo! I loved it! Yay! Beach! Best day ever!

Saffy: Today we went for a very long walk at a place called a nature reserve. It was grim, more bootcamp than holibobs. ☹️
Dave: It was awesome! I loved every minute. 😊

What a day! Holidays are exhausting! We started the day with a long walk around a battlefield. There were sheep, but eating sheep poo was a hard no. Pfft! Then we visited some old ruins. Sooo boring! We ended the day at a beach. It was beautiful, just like us. 😊

Saffy: Lazy Sunday, but no peace. The big idiot is loving the view from the upstairs lounge window. He's on watch for passing dogs and yelps with excitement every time he sees one. 🙄

Dave: Ah, well... I think mum forgot about safe storage being required for birthday cakes. It was delicious! 😋 Happy birthday! 🤣🤣🤣

Dave: I feel like the king of the world. We found a new enclosed dog field. It's huge! So much space to zoom. What fun! 😊 Somewhere, way off in in the distance behind me, the Princess of Darkness is busy hunting. While I run and run, she's permanently in stealth mode - or just plain lazy!

Dave: I'm on the big bed, waiting for snuggles. I've had a long walk, and a wonderful dinner of rabbit and kibble, with liver brownies for pudding. Life is good! 😊
Saffy: You're easily pleased - because you have a very small brain. 🤭 Service has been acceptable today, but not exactly five star. 🙄
