New Hounds Arriving In May

WELCOME TO ALL OF OUR VISITORS! Are you seriously considering greyhound adoption? This is a wonderful place to start…by ooh’ing and ahhh’ing over these magnificent animals.

Please keep in mind that this listing is a partial glimpse of the available greyhounds looking for their comfy couch. Their profiles consist of preliminary information and can change after they are in foster care. Our adoption coordinator has the most up-to-date information and has the responsibility of matching greyhound to family.

If you have any questions about our adoption procedure, please contact our Adoption Coordinator, Sue Mason, at animaluvr2@verizon.net. Remember, greyhound adoption does not fall into the “doggy in the window” category. There is a lot more to placing greyhounds than falling in love with a photograph!

BOBBIE – I’m Bobbie, a cat tolerant brindled female.  I turn 4 this summer. Bobbie has excellent leash manners and crates well.  This charming lady has been learning the ropes quickly!  Bobbie does well with children and is curious about her surroundings.
COMMOTION – This 70 lb. boy just turned 4 and recently arrived in PA from Florida.  Check back for updates.

DAZZLE -– Dazzle is 8 years old.  She listens well and has a wonderful personality.  Dazzle enjoys the company of other greyhounds.  Her foster mom calls her a typical blonde and an actress.  This girl enjoys being doted on.  She can often be found pretending to be a goofy puppy. 

DESI --  Desi is a 3 year old white and red male.  He’s cat/other breed tolerant and enjoys the company of children.  Desi crates well and has excellent leash manners.  While stuffies are fun to play with, affection is what this boy craves!  Now that Desi is retired, he’s learning that he doesn’t need to pick up trash or laundry anymore.  This happy boy enthusiastically wags his tail when he sees his foster family.  Will he wag his way right into your heart?

GIACOMO – I’m Giacomo.  I’m a 61 lb., 3 ½ year old female.  My foster mom calls me Giaco and says I’m sweet as pie!  This gentle girl walks well on a leash and crates easily.  She is other breed tolerant.  Giacomo enjoys her food, comfy dog beds, and tossing a stuffy around.  On a recent shopping trip, she even picked a new one out and carried it around the store.  Her foster mommy describes her as mild mannered, quiet, extremely affectionate, and a pleasure to have around.  She has beautiful brown eyes that will melt your heart.
HOCUS -- Hocus Pocus is a lovely, soft 5 year old boy.  He is a dream in the house...undemanding but affectionate, friendly with the other dogs, fine with kitties, and very playful!  He loves the sun and the yard, and is content by himself or with others!  So why is Hocus still with us?  He is a homebody.  He doesn't always react well to strange situations or to other animals outside of his home.  Long walks with other dogs are NOT his idea of a good time.  Are you a homebody too?  Could Hocus share your cozy nest?
JAY – My name is Jay and I’m a 73 lb. male.  Unfortunately, I suffered an injury at the track.  Once I’ve had some time to recover, I’ll be ready to move to my forever home.  Check back for updates as I just arrived from West Virginia.
JORDAN -- My name is Jordan.  I’m a smaller, 3 ½ year old playful male.  I’m very friendly and small dog tolerant.   Since I tend to nuzzle and rub up against the legs of people looking for attention, a home with school aged children would be perfect!  Jordan enjoys going out and meeting new people.  Are you looking for a playful, affectionate hound?  That’s me!!  Did I mention I have deep dark, soulful eyes?
KEBO KACI  – Kaci, a beautiful petite brindled female, will be 3 years old this summer.  Kaci enjoys going up and down the stairs and spending time with her foster family.  Kaci has excellent house manners and is sized to fit in any loving home.  Kaci enjoys the company of other greyhounds and also is happy being alone.
LANCE -- My name’s Lance and I’m 2 ½.  I get along well with other breeds including small dogs, chinchillas and birds!  I’m very sweet and lovable male.  I sleep through the night and crate well.  He comes when called and loves to be petted.  His foster mommy adores him and says he’s a great companion.
LEAH – Going somewhere?  Can I go too?  This lovely lady likes to tag along anywhere you’ll take her.  Leah is cat tolerant.  She loves to play with toys and really loves people.  Leah is just shy of 2 years old.  Leah just arrived.  Once she spends some time with her foster family, she’ll be ready for adoption.
LULU  --  Lulu is sweet, small (just 58 lbs.) and cat tolerant.  This girl is 2 ½ years old.  She’ll happy accept attention or wander off for a snooze in her crate.  Lulu enjoys the company of other greyhounds.    Her cuteness attracts people to her!  She is a good eater, does stairs, sleeps thru the night, has perfect house manners and is so quite you don't even know she is there. 
ROD --  I’m Rod, a 3 ½ year old, 72 lb. male.  Are you looking for a forever hound?  I’m a very sweet, happy boy.  I crate well and get along with other greyhounds and large breeds.  Rod is not small animal or cat safe.
SANDRA -- Sandra is just shy of turning 6 yrs old and weighs approximately 60 lbs.  With the help of a rescue in Florida and FSGR, she has recovered nicely from a serious leg injury and is now ready to move onto her forever home.  She is very affectionate and loves lounging around.  She does very well around other dogs and cats and loves kids.  She likes to snuggle with her foster parents and is waiting to race into someone's heart, could it be yours?  This girl is a champion in more ways than one!
