Available Fosters

Amy, aka Mimi, is an exceptionally sweet girl. She loves being in the presence of people, and will happily spend her days following you around and snuggling on the couch. She does very well around other dogs, big and small, although she doesn’t have much interest in playing with them, preferring to instead play with her people. Her eagerness to please her people can, at times, make her rather energetic, but this also makes her easy to train. As an example, her enthusiasm for dinner was overwhelming, with her tail wagging wildly and her jumping up, so she quickly learned to “lay down” until dinner is ready, at which point she happily goes to her bowl with the word “okay.” She also travels well, comfortably riding in cars, interacting with new people and places, and enjoying walks without pulling.

Arriving 6/10/2018: Black and white with some brindle in the black
7/16/2018: Bo is a very sweet and easy going guy. He loves to follow you around from room to room so that he is near by for pets and rubs at all times. He's been very good with all the children he has met. He can be playful , but mostly he likes to be loved on. He can do stairs with encouragement and loves to be praised. He does not crate well and may even be considered a master escape artist. We are not sure if he is small dog/cat safe. He shows a little too much enthusiasm whenever he sees a cat in the neighborhood. He enjoys his walks and does well on a leash. Someone lucky is going to get a very loving, sweet companion with this guy.
Arrived 7/22/2018: Reserved, gentle, shy, lays head on leg, doesn't jump.

Chancey is such a handsome fellow. He wants to be with you at all times, preferably touching. He loves going for walks and meeting new people. Any dog, cat, bird or mysterious creature we come across on walks needs to be greeted. We had one instance where he nipped at my cat, but a firm no put him in his place. He’ll carry around toys but doesn’t play with them. I imagine that will come in time.
His favorite time of day is meal time. He loves food and will try to steal food out of the other dog’s bowls. He has trained us to give him his food first. While he won’t jump up on you, he will jump up to counter surf if you have any food out. We are working on taking treats from a hand instead of making you drop it on the floor or bowl. ...

Older girl, very affectionate with people and kids, mellow, doesn't jump.
7/31/2018:
Jettison is a lovely girl and blended right in with the other greyhounds in her foster home from day one. She is a shadow that is always there following her foster mom around, but is polite and not demanding.
She has adjusted so well being about 5 years old to being in a home. She would be the perfect companion for someone who isn't looking for a puppy, but a more mature dog.
She is very loving and sweet and loves attention. She goes right in the crate, but can be a little vocal when crated at times, but is otherwise an absolute doll.
Arrived 7/22/2018:
Little girl, very happy and jumps. Litter mate to Power & Talent
8/2/2018:

8/29/2017: Nick is a little shy when you first meet him, but warms up after he learns to trust you. He's afraid of any new situations, but with reassurance, can get through it. Once he feels comfortable, he's such a "puppy" and full of energy. He will run around the house playing with toys and loves to run in the yard, and if you're lucky you might get a kiss. He rides well in the car, crates with no problems, walks well with another grey to guide him, and gets along with my two greys and kitties.
If you have a lot of patience to earn his trust, he will make an excellent companion.

Nick recently moved to a new foster home to see how he would do in a new situation. Nick is a very sweet and loving gentleman. He would make an excellent companion for a retired lady as he ...

Nim Rod, despite his name, is a very intelligent dog. He is not cat safe, small dog safe, rabbit safe, let's just say anything smaller than him safe, but does quite well with our other Grey. They are good running buddies.He has caught onto our schedule, for the most part, and learned a few commands. He is very well-mannered and learned to mind the house rules quicker than any other dog so far. eg, stay off furniture, stay out of the kitchen, dog toy vs. kid toy, etc. He knows to go to the garage door when he wants outside, and has done it many times flawlessly. He is good with kids, very gentle, and a really great dog. He even plays with stuffies tossing them in the air and chasing them, even fetches toys and dropping them at our feet. He also crates very well. Telling him to either go to bed or sa ...

Arrived July 2018. My sister, Kitty, and I need to be adopted together.
July 13, 2018-- Billy is the male half of the happy, affectionate bonded pair. They are so cute together! He has a lovely red coat. He greets you with a wagging tail and will rest his head on your lap asking for head pets and ear rubs. He gets along well with Kitty and his 2 foster greyhound brothers. He sleeps through the night on a dog bed in our bedroom with the 3 other hounds. However, if Billy had his choice, he would love to snuggle on the bed (evidently a privilege he had in his previous home). He is able to navigate stairs but goes down slowly, maybe as he is tall and all legs. Billy has a good appetite and loves all treats and peanut butter. Billy and Kitty could be a wonderful addition to your home!
Arrived July 2018. My brother, Billy, and I need to be adopted together.
July 13, 2018-- Kitty is the female half of this happy, affectionate bonded pair. They are so cute together! Kitty was the mother of 11 pups. She has a gorgeous thick red coat and a fluffy tail always ready to wag. Loves to have her ears rubbed. She gets along well with Billy and her 2 foster greyhound brothers. She sleeps through the night on a dog bed in our bedroom with the 3 other hounds. She navigates stairs, but is slow going down. Kitty is always ready for a trip outside and to go for a walk, bumping right in there to get in line with the 3 big boys. She eats well and loves peanut butter and cheese as treats . She is a frisky 10 year old with a sweet face. Kitty and Billy could be a wonderful addition to your home!
Arrived 7/22/2018: Cuddly, puts paws up on you and wants to be held like a baby
Arriving 6/10/2018
Squirt has been here just a few days and she is adapting to her surroundings nicely. She has mastered stairs, but does slide a little on smooth flooring. She is very inquisitive, affectionate and loves kids. She gets along with our other greyhounds as well. She is a little interested in cats but does back off when told "No". Other times she will totally ignore them. She might not do so well with timid cats. She is cat workable and will need to be watched. She loves to be close to people and see what you are doing no matter what room you are in. She also likes to look at the pretty dog in the mirror. She will make a loving addition to most families. She is quite the sweetie!
