Amy - Adopted!

Amy is a active 3 year old. She is workable with the right confidant, dog savvy cat and an owner that is an alpha presence. She does well inside with the cats, outside she is always on high alert for anything moving. Amy loves to go for car rides, jumps right in and makes herself comfortable. She has been to a few meet & greets and has handled them fine. She can be a bit reserved with other dog breeds at first, not knowing what to make of non greyhound hello's.

Picasso is a tiny, shiny black male. He has been to the vets and is settling in at a foster home. He is still interested in the kitties, but should be workable with cats that have dog experience. It's only his first day in his foster home, so give him some time to settle . Please check back for further updates. I don't need a large house or yard to play in, but I ask that you take me for walks to relieve myself (a fenced in yard is always nice but not necessary) and I would like a big soft comfy bed to lay on all day.

Scout is a wonderful 6 year old fellow who came back into our program after being in a home for 3 years. He is currently living in a foster home with another greyhound, and settling in just fine. Scout is a very loving greyhound who wants to be with people. He loves to play with toys, climbs stairs without a second thought and absolutely enjoys his walks. Scout is on a special diet for his sensitive tummy but is doing fine with the food and schedule he is on so don’t let that be a deterrent. Scout is a wonderful greyhound and would be fine as an only dog or with another laid back greyhound. If you are interested in meeting Scout please visit our open house or drop us an e-mail.

Hossman - Adopted!

Hossman is a sweet Fawn boy. He loves to go for walks, rides and running in the backyard. Out of nowhere he will pick up a toy and just toss it around the house. (He sounds like an elephant when he does.) He is a beautiful fellow who would love to find a loving forever home. He is definitely a couch potato and would rather be on the couch or chair (someplace soft and comfy) than be on the floor. Hossman would prefer not to have a home with cats or very small dogs. He is a special hound who suffers from a seizure disorder, and is currently on medication that is controlling his seizures very well. He has been in foster care for some time and they have really helped him find the correct medication and dosage to get his seizures under control. He will need to go to a home committed to giving him his medication on schedule. This medication is not expensive (under $10 for a three month supply, see below for more information) so please do not let this disorder or need for medication distract your interest in this handsome boy.

Below is an update from his foster home:
Hossman's medicines cost under $10.00 for a three month supply. We do not have him on any special diet, but he tends to eat anything that he can smell on the counter, in the sink, out of our coffee cups...you get the idea. He has had only a couple of seizures this past year. If there is a drastic change in his environment then he will probably have one. We were away overnight and someone stayed at the house, and he had one then. There is really nothing you can do other than just make sure there are no other dogs around him when he does have a seizure and keep him from hurting himself. When it is over they are very disoriented and will pace the house and drink lots of water. It is best to keep a log of his seizures so the vet knows what is going on.

He loves to lie on the couch and will not move unless you move him. He prefers a chair to the floor. When he is let out in our back yard, he will run and pounce the other dogs. I have to keep an eye on him so he does not get too rough.

Watching him play with toys is hysterical. He will throw them everywhere, and yes, he thinks our shoes are his toys. I have never seen him chew up anything. He crates fine as long as there is a very comfy quilt in it.

Would you be willing to share your home with this special guy? Lets get this guy settled and comfy in his new forever home! If you would like to meet Hossman please give us a call or drop an e-mail.

Ramses - Adopted!

PMP Chong a.k.a Ramses is a recent return due to a change in family circumstances. He gets along with other dogs. Likes kids especially teens and adolescents, he "roos" hello when first meeting any. He is energetic and likes toys. He knows some basic commands—sit, stay, and gives his paw. He crates well. Presently still working on his social skills with cats. He would really like to play with them, but is a bit too energetic for their liking at present. He would be a great addition to an active family.

Nitro - Adopted!

Nitro has been in his new foster home for 3 weeks now. He was originally labeled a spook, but that's not entirely accurate. When off leash in the house or in a fenced yard, he will stay away from people. Of his own choice he prefers to stay in the kennel room. When in a fenced area he will stay away from people and will move if you head in his direction. However once the leash is attached he is a completely different dog. He LOVES going for walks. Without a fenced yard in his new foster home, he has had to face the world. Nothing seems to faze him. He has ignored the traffic;paid little attention to the small yappy dogs running their fence line when we walk buy; the horses when they walk by the dog stall in the barn and has shown little interest in the wild turkeys in the yard. We have met snow machines without incident and today the neighbors shooting guns, no reaction. Completely cat safe as well. Jumps into the van, lays down and not a peep out of him. When no one is looking he will sneak into the living room and bring stuffies to the kennels and the ones that make special noise will be destroyed. He will come from his kennel when called and now that he has learned our walk routine, will come out on his own when it's time. He even barked at me last week when I wasn't getting ready fast enough. He may always be a bit of a recluse, but otherwise he will be a very nice dog for someone willing to let him be the dog he wants to be. It would be great if someone adopts him and continues walking him as he loves the outside world.

Update: Nitro has been in his new foster home for 6 months now. Now that he is more comfortable, he is spending more time out of his kennel (his choice). He has been playing with (and destroying) stuffies. He is more comfortable in public situations. Sometimes he will still shake for a few minutes but it passes. Nitro still does not seek but will accept attention from strangers. It's better if they just walk up, stand beside him and pat him. If they make a big deal of it, so will he. Nitro has taught himself to play fetch by watching my other GH. He has learned the drop it command. Nitro made a new friend this weekend. A little girl was intent on walking him and he did very well. He could possibly be with younger children that were quite and will give him his space when he needs it.
