We have rules, we have these rules for a reason.  We honestly believe our slogan and are determined to find "forever" homes for our greyhounds.

 

Kid minimum 8 -   10 years old, because... We are unable to evaluate greyhounds for younger children.  Most greyhounds do fine with older children.  Greyhounds have space issues, requiring they not be intruded upon when they are laying down or sleeping.  Younger children cannot be expected to understand this. 
 
Fences,  because ... Fences increase the safety of greyhounds at home, and provide an opportunity to run and play off leash.  We want them all to have that privilege.  It makes adjustment to a home smoother, and continuing their housebreaking simple.  It also increases their ability to exercise. 
 
Distance to adopt policy, because ...  We do a home visit for every placement.  We provide 24 hour a day support for each greyhound, and start with a two week trial period prior to adoption.  We are very connected to each of our greyhounds, and want to see them from time to time.  Placing them hours away creates a hardship for all.  It makes it difficult to do follow ups, and can mean we may never see that greyhound again.
