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.
Lola and Ruby
Two siblings Lola (L) & Ruby (R) with new Dads, John (L) & Roger (R).
These adopters brought home a pair of pups from us a little over 10 years ago. Sadly, both hounds have since passed, but they felt that the time was right to adopt again. They came to our open house over the weekend and met a bunch of our available hounds but really took note when they found out that we had two sisters from England in the kennel. These two happy girls are hard to resist, especially when they’re together! So, congratulations to Lola and Ruby and their new dads! – Mike Forrest
Ride
Ride (L) with Mom Nayell & Dad Maison & Brother Grandad (R).
This family adopted one of our pups (Grandad) way back in December of 2024 and quickly discovered what a lot of us already know: the only thing better than a greyhound is two greyhounds! So they came in to find a pal for Grandad, which was not hard because he got along with pretty much all of the dogs we introduced him to. He really seemed to hit things off with one boy though, and this guy also showed off his great leaning skills. After that it didn’t take long for them to add 2 1/2 year old Ride to their pack!

Monty
Monty with new parents Kevin & Evelyn.
These adopters have been wanting to adopt for a while now, but the time just wasn’t right. But now that they’re settled into a new home with a nice yard it was the perfect opportunity! They came in with an open mind and met a number of our dogs, but it’s hard to resist a good greyhound lean. And Monty is a very good leaner, and an accomplished ball player as well! Congratulations to this three-year old boy from the UK and his new family! – Mike Forrest
Dash
Dash with Dads, John & Joe.
This adoption was one of three brothers who came to us from Bahrain last year. All three were very shy and nervous around people and in new situations. Our wonderful volunteers and staff have been patiently working with them ever since to help them overcome their fears. And now after some time in foster adjusting to home life, this marks a new beginning for Dash and his family! Congratulations! – Mike Forrest
Friday
Friday nka Nepter with new Mom, Lauren.
This adopter has been volunteering at GPI for several months while waiting for the right dog to arrive. The challenge is that she and her partner have a cat so there aren’t many hounds to choose from. Fortunately, a big chill boy arrived recently from Australia who did great in our cat testing. She worked with him to make sure he was ready to face all of the challenges of home life and then made things official! Congratulations to Friday, now known as Nepter, and his new family! – Mike Forrest
