My mom wants a dog...ideas? (update: think she found one)

[Ginger's Mom]

He is absolutely adorable. I hope everything turns out well and she decides to bring him home, because I would Love to see more of him.

Tell her everybody expects a house with a dog to be less than tidy.

Hehe, it is my #1 excuse for having a messy house, I am glad I have dogs to blame.

Do they know for sure that he's a saluki mix? Honestly, from the picture, he looks straight up Lab/Grey. Lab/Greys are also more popular than the very rare Salukis. To be honest, I've seen more Borzois and Silken Windhounds than Salukis It may different up there if you've got a prolific breer, but I'd put my money on Lab/grey vs. saluki mix.

All that aside, CONGRATS to your mom!!! I, too, am very happy that she went the adoption route! I knew you could win her over

She's probably bringing him home saturday or monday. He seemed almost afraid of the cats so I'm not sure if that will change and he will try and hurt the cat? Is there signs to look out for or could he just decide to hurt her one day?

I didn't see any Saluki in him either at first, but once he was outside walking around, at a certain angle he really did look like a saluki. Then again, I'm no expert on the breed so I couldn't say for certain. I'll take pics of him whens he gets him.

He needs a name, though

Lukis!

An almost anagram of Saluki!

Or Gandalf the White!

Sorry I can't come up with a Saluki connected name. As I look into his beautiful eyes, I keep coming up with *Travis*.
