I just can;t stand peace and quiet so let

Sandra my first thought when i saw the 2nd pic of honey was saluki.Ofcourse she looks more GR,but i bet there's saluki in there somewhere.

Funny you should say that Edie, because my hubby calls her "my little saluki girl".  And there was another that use to post here, having seen any in a while and she has a part saluki that looks just like Honey and we compared pictures. 
 
When I was talking to my vet about what mix she could be and saluki was brought up, but more or less dismissed as he knows of no salukis anywhere in this entire area.  BUT this is (at least for now) a navy town and people come  from all kind of places and she could very well have come from somewhere else.  Both the Humane Soceity vet and my vet took her to be right at a year old when we adopted her Dec. 7, 2002.  And according to my vet, the little local  tiny Humane Soceity, and the city, navy people are notorius for moving off and leaving their dogs/cats behind, knowing landlord will come by to check out the property and get it ready for next family.  That is so sad.  Of course we will never know Honey's background.  We just know that she is a very sweet, loving dog and is actaully kinda clinging, like not wanting me out of her sight.  She craves attention--well most goldens do--and she does her dangest to talk.  i have never in my life heard a dog with as many different sounds as she can make.

OK...so if she is making all kind of unusual talking noises I would defiately think she has got some sort of "sighthound" in her!  greys(and I think some other sighthounds) are knowm for making the craziest "rooing" sound you have ever heard.  heaven forbid you get 1 greyhound rooing while in a pack of other greys...they will be heard for miles![]
My guys are always "talking" to me. They almost never bark (except at 1 dog that goes by and outside cats and a racoon family that passes by the door some nights).  They do however communicate with us all the time making weird sounds almost like they are "talking back to you"[]   Honey sounds like a great dog!

Thank you Lauric...I'd forgot those wonderful cocker ears.  And they could go from ok to clear the room stinking overnite.  Misty's ears never got to perfect on the better foods, but they sure improved greatly.

Sandra, that is one lovely animal. Honey is a perfect name for her! 

Thanks everyone for the wonderful words about our little girl.  She is so funny.  They say dogs can't remember "things they did bad' for more than a few minutes, but not so with Honey.  When i come home and she greets me at the door with her head down and twisted to the side so she has to cut her eyes up at me , and her tail down, but wagging,  i know she got into something she knew she should not have gotten into.  And sure enough i will find an envelope that she found and chewed a corner or two off it, a chewed on  empty toilet paper roll that had been in the trashcan, etc.
 
And as i said, her sounds are unreal.  I h ave been around dogs my entire 61 years, mostly English and irish setters, pointers, goldens, we did have a red boned hound once, and i always get to know neighbors dogs, but never one has had the amount of different sounds she can make.  Funny thing is she will look you right in the face and go on and on with those sounds.  If i believed in such things i would say she was a reincarnation of one of my ancestors trying to talk to me.  She will also talk to Buck and KayCee the same way. 
 
Oh, the other night Buck was already in and i wanted the girls to come in--they had been outsdie about 30 minutes.  KayCee came in as soon as the was open, but Honey was not on the patio.  They usually try to see who can get in first.  Well, once in the door, kayCee stopped and looked behind her, no Honey.  She turned to the open door, barked once, and her came Honey. She was probably just barking at something i didn't see or hear, but for all the world it appeard she was telling Honey to get in.  Dogs, you have to love them.
