Jason has had his stitches out, so he’s no longer Cone Boy.

Long Live Cone Boy!

Cone Boy only has one weekend to go, and then the stitches come out and the cone goes away. Yay!

Jason is now a cone-boy.

Here’s the stapled-up gash.

Jason needs some sympathy, in case you want to come by the nursery this weekend and give him a hug.

Jaxx spends summers with us. This is from last summer on the way home from the beach.

Not just for whippets, of course, but mostly.

It turns out that Jason is a “shadowy” figure, so to speak.

Whippet Wrestling!

Hap got me a new flip video, and this is what I’ve done with it: recorded Jason trying to stay awake.

Yay!

Jason was visiting with Jaxx. They are a handsome pair.

Two! Two! Two whippets on vacation at Workshare!

Jason was hiding under the covers.

I have been informed that I forgot Friday Whippet Blogging. What was I thinking!?!

Oy, now what will I do. I do have some leftover pictures from when Jaxx was visiting earlier in the year.

Hap is trying to get Benjamin and Jaxx to stop fighting and love each other. I think instead he’s scaring them.

Benjamin and Jason seem to be getting along.

Everyone wants to see Chase. We’re thinking of changing his name to Jason.

Amica likes to sleep on warm concrete. Very unusual for a whippet.

It must be spring, because Micah the Red-Foot Tortoise laid some eggs.

Special Saturday Whippet Edition

People complained yesterday, so here’s your whippet picture fix for the week.

Jaxx in a hat.

Special New Caledonian Crested Gecko Edition

Yes, that is a Peperomia in the back. Thank you for asking.

Run, whippet, run.

Special Potato Skin Action Edition

Benjamin likes potato skins.

First he smells it to make sure we really are giving him a potato skin. He can hardly believe its true.

See the rest after the break… Read More…

We’re fostering a whippet.

His name is Chase, and he’s a little skittish, but a good boy.

You know, we used to rescue turtles because we have a turtle pond until that got over filled. And crested geckos, until we had so many babies. And tortoises. And a parakeet that came to our pond and wanted to be brought inside cause she was cold and lonely.

And now I guess a whippet, but that’s it. No more. Unless you have some baby chicks, that is, cause we’d definitely take in some baby chicks. And maybe a pygmy goat, but that’s it, just the one. Unless we got a farm up in Sonoma and then maybe 2 or 3 pygmy goats. But that’s it. No more than that. Unless it was well fenced and then we’d have to rescue a big tortoise if someone asked, but only if they asked. But that’s it. No more than that.
