Seventeen...

...is the number of newly-retired greyhounds that I met and photographed last Saturday.

When I arrived the first few were already being bathed; I passed by those and walked down to the corral where the remainder were being examined before it was their turn for baths.

What a great looking group of hounds:

I photographed one of the hounds ("Alexis") getting her ears cleaned:

And then I walked over to where hounds were being shampooed and rinsed:

I watched as many hands fussed over every hound:
