claudiav Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) Does anyone know if we can still adopt greyhounds in South Florida? Do you know of any groups that we can put our names on waiting lists? Edited August 9, 2022 by claudiav Quote Image removed, not within Signature Guidelines.

Time4ANap Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 There were some groups named in a recent thread but you'll have to check them out individually. A couple of the groups in that area disbanded over the past few years so options locally may be limited. Quote Camp Broodie. The current home of Mark Kay Mark Jack and Gracie Kiowa Safe Joan.

When I first adopted there were so many available. Makes me sort of sad for people who never got the chance to adopt the best breed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure someone will snap him up quickly up there... we're looking to get one locally.. I've already put in an application with Barbara Masi, so she will keep us in mind when they get some... Greyhounds in Motion also gets some returns, but they bring in a lot of galgos and I've always lusted after them... I just couldn't pay the adoption fee if it was over $500... we'll see what turns up... I'll update when we do get our next pup Quote Image removed, not within Signature Guidelines.

claudiav Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 Just got a wonderful call from Barbara Masi. It seems, Remy, one of their service dogs in training has come down with corns, so he cannot continue his service career. Luckily, I have had two corn dogs and I'm a hulling expert.... so we are getting our greyhound much sooner than originally anticipated... I thought we'd be on a waitlist for months... can't wait to meet him and so hope for him to bond with Pretzel, my 4 yr old boy... Quote Image removed, not within Signature Guidelines.

I did... but AGA was much closer to us... and we are getting bomb-proof Remy, who was almost a service dog for a veteran, had he not developed corns... and it's very fortunate, cause I am an expert corn huller Quote Image removed, not within Signature Guidelines.

KISSER so playful... already got Pretzel running after him and playing hide and seek, by going in and out the doggie door... Remy will learn it quickly, I'm sure... I tried uploading pic but I can't compress it down small enough to be accepted... It only wants 64KB or less...
