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 Placement 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 Placement Coordinator, Christine Guth, at gbink26@enter.net. Remember, greyhound adoption does not fall into the “doggy in the window” category. There is a lot more to greyhound placement than falling in love with their photograph or the brief description below.

	TREY – This red male weighs 72 pounds and is 4 years old.  He is cat tolerant, walks extremely well on a leash, and prefers the company of other dogs.  Trey is a big sweetheart who loves to give kisses.  He has learned to bark when he has to go potty!  Otherwise, he’s very quiet and can be found roaching on the couch or a big comfy chair.  He’ll even cuddle right up next to you.  He loves tossing stuffy toys around and even plays fetch in the house.  He likes to take a stuffy outside and walks around with it in his mouth.  If he has to leave it, he’ll pick it right back up on the return trip!  Trey does very well uncrated and would do best in a home with older children.
