Join us here as our Adoption Representatives share stories from the Adoption Center. Check out our Available Dogs to see who’s still waiting for their forever home.
Baxter
Baxter (L) with new parents, James & Antonio with doggie sib, Blake.
This recent adoption was to a family that is very familiar with greyhounds, having had four including their current Irish boy Blake who they adopted a little over a year ago. They felt that Blake was ready for a new playmate, and saw a note saying we had a 6-year-old returned to us due to a family emergency. They immediately got in touch and set up a time to come meet him. The two dogs got along and he also made a great impression on his new parents, so today Baxter headed off to join his new pack! – Mike Forrest
Beauty
Beauty with her new parents, Mark & Nicole.
These adopters are a lifelong greyhound family and lost their previous girl Maggie a couple of years ago. They made the trip over from Eastern Washington with one girl in mind, and she did not disappoint. Within a couple of minutes of meeting them, she was practically upside down next to them on the couch requesting more pets. So it didn’t take much persuading for them to bring our sweet Australian girl Beauty back home! – Mike Forrest
Jordy
Jordy with his new parents, Jenn & Richard.
This family you may recognize as long-time GPI volunteers at various walks and meet & greets. They lost their last greyhound Ash last year and have had their eye on one of our Australian dogs for a little while, taking him on frequent Brightwater walks. Well today the time was right and they welcomed Jordy into his new home! – Mike Forrest
