Sung to the tune of "My Sharona"

Come on folks. Not everyone is lucky enough to get a song writing hound. There's only one Walter! Look at the handsome boy and try to get the ear worm out of your head. 😂

The weather is getting colder, it's time to break out the hat and scarf. Or the hat and Walter.

Remember, a Walter is for life - not just for winter. He will keep you toasty warm all year round if you let him.

Walter had a great time exploring in the woods this week, lots of things to sniff and met a few dogs of various shapes and sizes. If you like a leisurely stroll in the woods, take a look at Walter.

If you haven't met him yet, he will be at the walk in Strathclyde park tomorrow. Remember, strangers are just friends you haven't met yet. Walter is looking for his new best friend, and he has a LOT of love to give to the right person. 💞

Heylo everywun. It's me. The Walter. I hope you have all been enjoying the hot wever. I has been too warrum sometimes but I just keep trying to sunbathe.
I don't know why, but G says I live up to my name, something about a cleaning robot. 🤪 I'm not a robot, I'm a Walter. Walters are greyhounds. Silly G.
I've not been on here much because G has been busy on the tooter and I havent been able to sneeky sneeky onto it. Have a few pics of my handsome self to make up for it. I know you all missed me!

Hi dere interbobbles. It's me, the Walter again.
Unfortunately the meeting on Monday didn't go well. The wee dog I had to meet was a bit too scared of me when I wanted to play with him and the peoplez decided that maybe now isn't the best time to add another hound to the family.
So I'm back on the lookout for a new home. I'm a good boy in the house, like to run to the door to greet people as they arrive and I even take treats gently - unlike other hounds *cough* Gary *cough*.
Keep an eye out for me at the walks, and drop me a message here on the book of faces if you want to meet me. I LOVE meeting new friends.

Heylo everybuddy. It's me, the Walter again.

Last night I had a very exciting walk in the heel licks park with two wonderful ladies who are hopefully going to be my new hoomans.

I was on my bestest, handsomest behaviour and I snaffled all the treats and got lots of cuddles.

On Monday evening I'm meeting them again and I'm looking forward to meeting my new sister (she's on instabobble so I hope she teaches me how to work that fing.) if that goes well then I will have bagged myself a furever home! 💕

When I got back home and told Gary and Queenie all about where I'd been and all the sniffs, Gary said I should get as many cuddles as possible here so I hopped up for a cuddle with Lynds for a bit.

I'll keep you all posted. Keep your paws crossed folks.

Goob Morning everywun. It's the Walter again. There is trickery afoot! You might want to sit down for this one.

Last night I met a very handsome dog, he was black with some white bits and he kept copying everything I did. That was fun for a couple of minutes, but then I got sick of him copying me so I barked at him to stop. He barked back at exactly the same time! I ran round to the other side of the wall to tell him off and he was GONE. I ran back and he was there again. Trickery! I growled, barked and whined at him to try to get him to properly shop himself, but he stayed in the box on the wall and wouldn't come out.

I'm in a huff now, why did he only show himself after a few days of me being here? Why won't he come out and play? More importantly - I can see him, but I can't smell him; what's going on with that?

The whole episode was very exhausting - and I forgot how to work a bed. G took a photo of me - which wasn't very nice.🙄

Heylo everybuddy. It's the Walter again.

Guess who has a meet lined up with a potential furever home? If you guessed me, you're right! I'm just that awesome.

I'll be on my bestest behaviour, as always. I'm so excited my bum even wagged when Gary explained about a furever home to me. Now I'm all exhaustificated and need a snoozle

I'll keep you all up to date.

Heylo everybuddy! It's me, the Walter. Gary teached me to work this book of faces thing so I don't need any help to talk to you all.

I see you have been made aware how handsome and cuddly I am. Did you know I am also a lapdog? As you can see, I have decided this is my new calling in life.

These new peepulz have been so cruel to me. They tried to drowned me on Friday night! (He had a shower - G) And they keep eating from a thing called a Tay bull. I'm not supposed to mooch at the Tay bull. The tay bull is almost head height. If it wasn't for mooching, why is it at mooch height? 🧐

Gary is being a good brudder though. He taught me who has the treats on walks, and how to perform "the look" to get extras. Queenie is the boss. She has told me off a couple of times but is mostly really nice. She likes more space than I do. So I cuddle Gary or go to one of the peepulz for extra cuddles.

I'll be back wif more updates later on. Cheerio

hellooooo frens… big news! there’s a fresh snoot on the scene and he goes by the name of walter 🖤

walter is 5 years old, sleek as a seal, and blacker than a midnight biscuit. he arrived like a whirlwind of sniffs and polite tail wags, and has already inspected every single thing in the house at least twice. cupboards? snout checked. hoover? suspicious but accepted. Washing machine? sniffed, re-sniffed and watched CLOSELY! treats cupboard? memorised. ✅

this lad is very friendly. the type who leans in for a cuddle like he’s been your best pal forever. you sit down? walter’s there. you move rooms? so does walter. you open the fridge? he's your shadow now.

he’s still learning what home life’s all about, but already doing excellent snoozes, discovering the magic of toys (he believes every one is possibly edible), and settling in like he’s always been here. and oh my days—the ears. one is missing a wee chunk but they're both as expressive as any other hound. loves an ear scratch does Walter.

walter’s got that inquisitive spirit that makes everything an adventure. from strange cushions to unfamiliar dogs, he must investigate it all. but in between the sniffs and the snuggles, he's just a big-hearted lad figuring out how to be someone’s future best boy.

he's already got the measure of the other hounds in the house - and he loves them both! queenie took a wee while to come round to the "intruder" but they're pals now. gary is gary, everyone is his pal. walter walks well on the lead, a little headstrong at times but not too much.

watch this space, walter’s gonna be a good un

Heads up folks, a foster hound has arrived. Walter is not enjoying this heat, but is settling in nicely.

28/05/2025

Hey folks. I know it's been a while since we last posted - we haven't had a foster and we were making sure Gary and Queenie were fully settled and used to their new home. Also Lynds had a wee trip away for a few days.

We're getting ready to take on dog #3 which will be a foster so keep your eyes peeled for updates.
