An easy introduction!

[Lisbeth Mønsted Larsen]

Dear Happy Fourth of July.I went to Nyborg to pick up my new greyhound. He is a gorgeous brindel now named Collin his racing name is Geneva Noisy. He can be seen on the greyhound databse under that name.He has taken everything in his stride he has a wonderful temperament he walks away if Tristan growls he respects both Darcy and Mike too he is such a sweetheart he has already claimed one of my sofas as his own he throughly enjoys stretching out on the sofa he loves sleeping next to me. in short he is the ideal greyhound he does not react to other dogs at all execpt the small ones now those he regards as prey items.Collin is a very tall greyhound but graceful and he moves like a dream and he is fast no doubts there.Sufice it to say this introduction into my pack has gone well much better than I expected.I can say with some satisfaction another young greyhound safe from harm and placed in a forever home. Here he will enjoy all the best I can offer the transition from racing dog to familymember has been a smoothe one.Love you all Lisbeth and the lads. A young needy greyhound worthy of Connors memory another life saved.

Bye Kathi or more to the point see you. Is this a correct translation? Thanks for the compliments Don I happen to think he is gorgeous  and he has a lovely temperament too. Love to you all Lisbeth and the lads.

Dear Wanda . Hardly a lifes work Collin is only two and half years old so a youngster who has botched up two races in both cases he was disqualified and deemed unfit for racing. Not that I care he is my lad and I love him.He is young and healthy so should have a long happy life filled with love,understanding and above all else compassion. His bad days are over. Thanks Don good to know what it means.

I understand a few words here and there!!!  I was raised learning German and Norwegian but have forgotten most of it since" if you don't use it you loose it"!!!  I also had a freind who was Italian and spoke it fluently so a few things have stuck in my brain, very little though!!!!

KATHI AND LISBETH I DON'T SPEAK PERFECT ITALIAN BUT ONE THAT SPEAKS BROKEN ITALIAN LIKE SPEAKING BROKEN ENGLISH. AND YES COLLIN IS BELLA AND SO ARE YOU TWO. CIAO DON.  BTW CIAO IS LIKE ALOHA HELLO AND GOODBY.

Thanks Don it must be our souls shining through. I knew what ciao means  as I have been to Italy I found out by listening and observing the people around me when I wasen´t out training on my bike. Which is why I was there in the first place it was when I was on the national team and was preparing for a new season of racing on road as well as mountain biking. It was way back then. I still remember though. Love to you both Lisbeth and the lads.
