Just a quick note before reading this really important information. Anyone who knows me knows I have loved Greyhounds for a long time! I wanted to adopt one way back when but when I told them I had a young Jack Terrier, the rescue group said they would not adopt one to me. Apparently they can confuse JRTs with rabbits or whatever it is they chase around the track. I would also like to inform those who don't know, Greyhounds are LIFE SAVERS! Many retired racers are blood donors to other dogs who are in dire need. Greyhounds have a high PCV (pack cell volume) and a lot of them are able to donate thanks to their very gentle, mellow nature. Besides all that, many Greyhounds are universal donors!
EVERY ANIMAL DESERVES THE CHANCE AT A WONDERFUL LIFE IN A FOREVER HOME!!! If anyone here in Austin wants to take a road trip to rescue a Greyhound in December, I am totally up for it. I am off the weekend before Christmas.

I have always loved greyhounds but everywhere I look at adoption, they want thousands.
ReplyDeleteI also have too many things they can chase.
Good Luck on your venture. You may try posting it on face book or something like that.
