Blue, Kai's yard-mate, a greyhound we adopted from the Greyhound Adoption Program (GAP).

I think you can see here, in his eyes even, his timid nature. At home he's mellow, dopey, paranoid, but I think he's happy. He loves Kai, and follows his every move and cue. Kai taught Blue to bark at strangers and to play with us people. It's obvious who the alpha is, though Kai is half Blue's size.

Get Blue riled up, and he turns into a bouncing blur as he races around the yard, dodging your hands, weaving between the trees and the hills hoist. He has a airy but clumsy bounce, like a balloon. He's not the most graceful of animals, but he certainly has alot of character.

We love him. He's smarter than your av-er-age teacup chihuaha, but not by much.
