Thank you all!!! This info is ALL fantastic, and I love your stories. I have one question, though....what is a DD/DDIL? I've also seen DH and DW....hmmm...????

Good Morning everyone.. Thank you kindly for your replies!! I wasn't sure if anyone read these new topics!! I actually feel better and more reassured now. Can anyone tell me beforehand what the adoption process is like, and approximately how long does it take? There are quite a few rescue groups here in Southern California and the on-line process seems to be the same. The Meet and Greet I believe is through Greysave, and I just saw on-line that you can actually visit the Hemopet facility. I guess I want to get a feel for as many dogs as possible. I just have that feeling, when it's the right dog, I will know it!! Thanks for the info on reading, and giving consideration to a dog who needs to be rehomed. I will most certainly reach out in the future as I continue my quest. A hound meetup sounds fantastic too, Greyhound_in_LA. And I can bring my little guy, since he seems to think he's a greyhound!!! Again, thank you for your input!!! Lisa and Little Man

Hi everyone! I've just registered and wanted to introduce myself. I don't have a greyhound yet. It's not a matter of "if", it's a matter of "when". I live in Los Angeles county, specifically Diamond Bar. There is a Meet and Greet this weekend in the area. I have done some research on line and have some questions. For instance, are they really high maintenance? I didn't think they were, until I explored this sight and read some of the threads. Before I attend, I would like to know what to expect at the Meet and Greet. What questions should I ask? I have a small dog-BTW he is not yappy!!! Lol-he is very mellow and I'm convinced he thinks he's a greyhound or a cat! I think I know some of the basics, about stairs, sleep startle, cat/small dog friendly, heat sensitivity, and exercise needs. What else can I learn? Can anyone recommend some reading material? FYI- I have not completed an on-line adoption application. Right now I am in a learning mode, and would appreciate any advice! Thank you for reading!! Lisa and Little Man
