Introducing – The GlassHound We decided that it was time to separate our stained glass art and fused glass art from Greyt Inspirations. It was time for our "art" to have a home of it's own. The GlassHound The GlassHound showcases all of our stained glass windows panels, suncatchers, stepping stones, fused glass jewelry, fused glass coasters (coming soon), fused glass tiles, and much more. There is also a Custom Order Form for custom requests. We are very excited about our new website.

Canine Vaccination Routine Keeping your dog vaccinated is one of the most responsible things that a dog owner can do for his or her own dog and also for other dogs in the neighborhood.

The Smartest Dog Once upon a canine there lived a puppy named London. London was a curious looking German Shepherd, who by today's standards resembled a cross between a purebred Shepherd and a Siberian Husky. London was born in 1946 and was purchased by a retired U.S. soldier named Chuck P. Eisenmann... read more... Time Out There is a new puppy in my house and he is as crazy as the last puppy that was in my house. He wants to jump on me, nip my hands, pee on my floor, bark at my friends, eat my food and sleep on my bed.

Introducing – Greyt Sites Would you like to have a webstore similar to this one? Greyt Sites can help. Visit Greyt Sites website and you'll see how easy it is. I have had the Greyt Inspirations webstore for almost 5 years and been with the same ecommerce host for all that time. There has been no problems in all that time, customer service and support is excellent, down-time is practically non-existent and they offer a huge range of services. And they are very reasonably priced for what they offer you. It is the best ecommerce solution that I have come across and I highly recommend it. So much so, that I have started offering a hosting service through them myself.

Life is always interesting with... four dogs and a bird; our three greyhounds, our toy poodle and our canary. Let's talk pet dynamics. When you have a "pack" of dogs in one household, you will find that the pack mentality and dynamics are constantly changing. Mandy was our pack alpha for many years but we have recently noticed a gradual change over to Onyx. More times than not nowadays, she gives way to Onyx. This change is happening very gradually and almost unoticeably to the untrained eye. We let things happen as they will, only interfering when (and if) necessary. When we adopted our 2nd greyhound, we did alot of research on pack dynamics and learned a great deal about pack mentality (very interesting stuff!). This has helped us keep order over the years. I think it is very important to learn all you can about how dogs think and react when you have more than one dog in a household. Knowing how they think helps you to deal with any issues without causing confusion to the dogs. As a result, our dogs all know who is alpha and treat each other with respect. Most of all, they all defer to us in all matters as we are the supreme alphas in the family. Everyone of our dogs are confident and happy knowing how things work in their home and knowing their place. We LOVE our dogs! They keep life interesting...

Recommended! Questions that have no answers... Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat? ...More Unanswerable Questions Coolest Gadgets I came across this website and thought that it IS totally cool! Tons of gadgets listed, all categorized. I spent quite a bit of time browsing through the categories and there really are some interesting gadgets. I especially like the solar powered birdbath. Certainly not a necessity, however I love watching the birds and I love garden art but I don't like having standing water in the yard (attracts mosquitos) so of course this one attracted my attention. Take a peak yourself, I'm sure you'll find it as interesting as I did.
