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.
Ernie
Ernie (R) with Scotty & Kim, their mom.
This adopter is a GPI volunteer who has had several of our greyhounds. She has a soft spot for the senior hounds, and when she saw that one had been returned to us, she had to meet him. Fortunately, her other greyhound Scotty also approved, so 9-year-old Irish boy Ernie has a new pack! – Mike Forrest
Ribbet
Ribbet (L) with new Dad & Mom, Mike & Po with Tony, fka Pistol.
These adopters made the trip up from Portland to find a new buddy for their 5-year-old greyhound Tony. They got to meet several of our recent arrivals from Australia, and Tony was happy to meet all of them. But I can’t say that I was surprised that they ended up adopting the handsome, outgoing 3-year-old boy named Ribbet! – Mike Forrest
Pinto
Pinto with new mom, Audrey and her son, Michael.
We have also welcomed another repeat adopter to the kennel. Her previous greyhound passed late last year and it was time to welcome a new companion. She came to the kennel with one particular dog in mind, and he did not disappoint! He came right up to greet her, and it didn’t take long for him to show off his easy-going nature on a walk around our yard. And then a short while after that Pinto and his new mom headed home! – Mike Forrest
Leonard
Leonard nka Oscar, new Mom, Melody with cousin, Merry.
This recent adopter has volunteered with GPI and had a couple of our greyhounds before, and came in looking for a new companion. She had one little guy in mind and took him out on our group walk at Brightwater. That went great so they made it official soon afterwards! Leonard will now be known as Oscar in honor of Oscar Wilde and this St. Patrick’s Day adoption! – Mike Forrest
