Welcome Maui!

Sweet like pineapple, we've got a new boy in the kennel, Maui. He is a happy wiggly guy and enjoy cuddling, long walks at sunrise and sunset, and fine dining. Maui is looking for an active family and would do best without cats or small fluffy dogs, they look like big moving toys and he doesn't want to get into trouble if there is any confusion.

Name: Maui
Racing name: Cayenne Mauiwowi
Weight: 74 pounds
Color: Brindle
Born: December 3rd, 2005



If Maui sounds good but you're looking for a pup with a little more meat on their bones and a more relaxed approach to life consider his brother, Wahoo. Mr. Hoo is a big sweet lump and would be better suited to a quiet relaxed home than his fun-loving brother.

Thanks Furever Pets!

We would like to express our gratitude to our wonderful hosts at Furever Pets and to all the people who came to meet our adoptable greyhounds, thank you!

It was a really pleasant day to be out talking to folks about the joys of having a hound in your life. The sun was shining but we had plenty of shade and a nice breeze to keep us comfortable. There was even live music across the street!

We talked to a number of people about how wonderful greyhounds are as pets and at times we even have anecdotal evidence as some familiar faces and happy adoption alumni showed up to let all the volunteers see how well they're doing!

Thank you Symon, Furever Pets and all the folks out on Broadway yesterday, we had a great day!
