Me and my boy Fun

Me and my boy Fun

But thanks to the largely volunteer-run and official-protocol-free rescue shelter world, it can sometimes be a total pain in the ass/kick in the face. Slate's Emily Yoffe shares some horror stories of dealing with rescue-shelter Nazis in "No Pet for You!": Katie wrote that she wanted to adopt a retired racing greyhound but was told she was not eligible unless she already had an adopted greyhound. Julie got a no from a cat rescue because she...

Adopted Greyhounds Get Stressed Too

By ReganBlack on  From reganblack.com
It’s true. Our easy going adopted greyhound retirees can get stressed out due to a variety of factors. We don’t think about it much, since our current three adopted greyhounds are pretty laid back (now that the puppy is settling down) but they do get stressed out by different things and we’ve learned how to soothe them. Boo has a classic case of adopted greyhound fear of thunderstorms. Her symptoms include hiding in the half bath, panting, trembling. She doesn’t like fireworks either, but...Read Full Story

Adopted Greyhounds Sight Hounds Or Ear-hounds?

By ReganBlack on  From reganblack.com
Through 20 plus years of adopted greyhounds and foster greyhounds, I’ve developed some pretty solid opinions of these incredible dogs. I love them – fine I’m better labeled an adopted greyhound addict – and their many quirks and unique personality traits amuse me. Adopted greyhounds are sight hounds, which is a rather obvious way of saying they are visual animals. They hunt, or race, when something catches their interest. The fake rabbit at the track, the squirrel or bird in the back yard...Read Full Story

Which Adopted Greyhound Was Right For Us?

By ReganBlack on  From reganblack.com
Right or not, Bubbles was our first greyhound, a wedding present to ourselves, and our first child. In mostly blissful ignorance we were matched with her by a man who found greyhound rescue to be a hobby that was just as rewarding, but more affordable than flying. We didn’t know much about the breed, but we eagerly listened to everything that experienced greyhound rescuer told us. We got our greyhound education primarily through one chance meeting at a vet and the greyhound adoption...Read Full Story

An Adopted Greyhound Collection

By ReganBlack on  From reganblack.com
One more reason for my addiction to the outstanding dog breed of retired, adopted greyhounds: 5 greyhounds in one room and no fighting, not even much grumbling. Even with a stressful situation like noisy fireworks. That’s five dogs with long legs, noses and tails and an average weight of approximately 70 pounds each.  Yup, that means a lot of adopted greyhound cooperation. We’ve been dogsitting for Ransom and Ozzie, a pair of greyhounds we adore, while their daddy took a well-deserved...Read Full Story

Adopted Greyhound Full of Love and Concern

By ReganBlack on  From reganblack.com
Well, we had a bit of excitement this week. Our precious Boo, queen of our three-pack of adopted greyhounds had a grand mal seizure Monday afternoon. It was terrifying as she started with foaming at the mouth and a twitchy lip, then suddenly collapsed in a full blown seizure that lasted about 5 minutes. Absolutely terrifying. I’d had no first hand experience with this and I fumbled, one hand on the phone dialing the vet, one hand on Bandit as we helplessly waited it out. First, let me say...Read Full Story

One Adopted Greyhound At A Time

By ReganBlack on  From reganblack.com
It’s been over twenty years since I met my first greyhounds up close in the back of my vet’s office as they waited for or recovered from spay and neuter procedures. So stoic – and quiet – they sat in the kennels, seemingly oblivious to the chaotic barking and crying from the other dogs and cats. I love big dogs, married a man who felt the same, and an adopted greyhound became our wedding present to each other. Bubbles was the best, a lovely ambassador of the breed, and a perfect ‘first...Read Full Story
