Portland Nursery Adoption Event

We're very excited about this Saturday because we're been invited to host an adoption event at Portland Nursery! If you have never been there they have an amazing selection of plants and some really great and helpful staff. There is going to be at least one class, starting at 1pm, on pet-friendly gardening with a Q&A session afterwards so if you have trouble with your dogs making your yard into a play area instead of being a relaxing outdoor retreat you'll probably get some great ideas on how to make it a multi-purpose space that you and your greyhounds can enjoy! Portland Nursery always invites people to bring their well-behaved dogs, so break out the leashes and come say hi :) This is not the event you want to miss, the staff at the nursery got really excited when we approached them with this idea so lets make it a huge success!

Where: Portland Nursery
Address: 5050 SE Stark St., Portland
When: Saturday August 22nd

Thanks For Paws!

Yesterday's adoption event at For Paws was a smashing success! We had a great group of people come by to visit with the dogs and most of the crew that came have homes waiting for them now.

We would like to thank Faye and Alessandra at For Paws for being such amazing hosts to us and the greyhounds. Thanks also to Dean and Mary, Stacey and Justin, Lisa and Rob and Dale and Deb for opening your homes to a retired racer! We also appreciated the visits from Alexis and Lil Bit and Rich and Artie, both greyhounds went home only last weekend and are already doing us proud! And it was nice to see Lily with her mom Jen as well.

Between the new greyhound families found and the visits from our alumni with their people it was a wonderful event. Thank you everyone!



Alexis showing off Lil Bit.



Happy and Sassy getting love while the volunteers chat.



Now we know why Jane doesn't quite grasp the concept of "off."



Triple starts to work his puppy dog eyes.


Still working it...


It worked! Triple scored himself a home and the love of Lisa and Rob.



Jane thinks that Triple is almost as good as a sofa.


Triple gets trampled and shows amazing tolerance.
