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.
Whinney
Whinney with new dad & mom, Jeremy & Alison.
It had been a little while since our last adoption so we were happy to see a couple come in ready to bring home a new hound. They recently lost their greyhound girl Wren, and had done their homework by meeting some dogs at our kennel open house a couple of weeks ago. We introduced them to five of our boys, some of whom they had met previously, but I don’t think any of us were surprised that they ended up bringing home an Australian boy who has been very popular among our staff & volunteers: Whinney! – Mike Forrest

A couple came in with their goldendoodle Samson looking to add a greyhound to their family. One of them had previously had a greyhound years ago, but this would is a first for Samson. Fortunately the first dog they asked to meet got along great with everybody, and after some get-to-know-you time they were soon playing happily out in the yard. We tried introducing a different hound, but it just wasn’t the same so Samson and family headed off with the latest addition to their family, Kip! – Mike Forrest
Jetty

A couple looking for their first dog together came into our kennel open house a few weeks ago and met a bunch of our hounds. Well soon after that they got their application in and their home visit done, and they came back to adopt! They got to meet a few more dogs, but it was one of the boys that met during the open house that really made a connection with them. So they headed home with our Irish boy with the racing stripe down his nose: Jetty! – Mike Forrest
