MaryJane Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Welcome to Greytalk. Padfoot looks wonderful. Not sure if you are aware that there are two greyhound walking groups in the greater Boston area. One meets Saturday and the other Sunday. http://greyhoundadventures.org/ http://www.trailboundhounds.org/ Great way to meet other greyhound people and they are a great resource for other greyhound owners.

Thank you, Mary-Jane! We knew about Greyhound Adventures, but not Trail Bound Hounds. We are planning to take him on some hikes once the weather breaks in the Springtime so TBH sounds perfect for that. We look forward to meeting you and Padfoot on a Sunday Greyhound Adventures walk. Riversbosun, we are planning to come to the one next Sunday at the Arnold Arboretum! Looking forward to meeting the other Mass. Greyhounds and their parents. Quote Padfoot the greyhound fr.
