3rd Annual BeachBound Hounds 2002

We've chosen a few random pictures to share from BBH02.  Enjoy the memories from last year (and think about making your own!)

This page may take a few minutes to load because of the pictures.  Please be patient!

Joanne Johnson and her boy JD (Just Dog) enjoy a playful moment of surf and sand.

Cali, our Mastiff mascot, contemplating the ocean in regal style.

Good morning Bart!  Is Momma Pam signing with you!?!

BBH Royalty for 2002

Our Queen Annie is on the left, with King Prince.

Lemmee bid lemmee BID!  The Silent Auction was a great hit, and lots of fun for everyone!

We just love those costume contests!  Even the little ones get to play.  :-)

Gotta wear your heart on your sleeve...ur....arm.  The winner of the Best Greyhound Tattoo contest!

Fuzzy Orange and his dogs...dressed in orange!

WOW!!  (What else is there to say?)

Would you like crushed biskies with that??  The GPA/SC folks hosting their first annual Ice Cream Social with frozen yogurt and lots of laughs on top.

We began a new tradition of honoring dogs we've lost by writing their names in the sand during the Sunrise Blessing.  It's an incredibly moving few minutes on the beach.  :-)

Len Bartz, Master Photographer, came down from Missouri to join in the fun.  In this picture he's working on an individual photo session with Candy & Josh, with their dogs Cam and Flip.

Chuck and his new family made things formal during the Marketplace Social!  Seen here are Chucky and the Phillips family in the center, with foster mom Joanne and JD on the left,  Glory Jacumin their Charleston Rep on the right.  Welcome to our new GC family!

Pawprings preserved forever....taking the pups to Wired and Fired turned out to be alot of fun!  

Come'on girl, give Daddy a kiss!!  Mike Kirby tries to convince his girl to help him win the Best Greyhound Kiss contest.

Members from many different adoption groups join in the BBH fun now!  Seen here are two groups at the Teakwood, the second BBH hotel to sign on board.  The very idea of BBH is cooperation and sharing between greyhound owners and groups from all over east coast.  If you love a greyhound you're welcome!

Daddy and kids....Robert Owens enjoying the early morning sunshine with his special girl Dolly (under his arm) and her housemates Angel, Stubby, and Sunshine.

If there ever were Greyhound Saints, they should be John and Bettie Grinsted.  Anyone who met their full pack of 8 will never forget their wonderful attitude toward life and the greyhounds in it.

What a lovely, lovely girl.  Here's Val...or it is Pol....or maybe Bel?  Even those of us who love June Pilcher's four littermates can't tell them apart!

BeachBoundHounds is all about sharing special memories and a beautiful place....and the love we all have for our dogs.

After all....where else in the world but a greyhound event would you have this many people participating in a Bodacious Butt competition??

Naturally BBH02 was even bigger!
