Welcome to Lotus and Rosie's home page!
Lotus
Hi there 'puter mommies and daddies! My name is Lotus and I'm the most gorgeous greyhound in the world, or so my mom tells me. I was born to be a racing greyhound but I wasn't having any of that business. All I wanted to do was play and those people at the greyhound farm just wanted me to study and study.
Anyhow, I got my way in the end (I almost always do!). My new mommy came and picked me up at the farm when I was eighteen months old. She thought she was just gonna keep me for a little while until I found a real home, but I showed her. I've been here ever since.
Mom and Dad still do that thing they call "fostering" though. What it really means is that they're always bringing in some other dumb greyhound for me to train. Just about the time I get 'em set straight 'bout who's boss, they get their own mommy and daddy and move out. But the nice people at the 'doption group just keep finding more dumb greyhounds to send over here.
In Memoriam
Our dear Rosie left us for the Rainbow Bridge at age 13.
Rosie had a long racing career as Nulife Kolorme. She then left the racing life
to become a brood matron, raising new racing greyhounds and, later, coyote dogs.
She ended up at the Roswell, New Mexico, animal shelter, at age nine and was placed
with us as a foster dog by Greyhound Companions of New Mexico. We fell in love and
adopted her. Rosie loved everything and everybody, and wanted nothing more from life
than to be petted. She adored snow, and until her last days would perk up and
bound out the door to jump around in the white stuff when it snowed.
