Story
Buckley is very adorable and playful. Loves toys and is completely engaged with people. She is very people oriented and a huge cuddler. She has mastered the art of sitting and does it quite frequently. She is solid black, has very special ears, and has an excellent lean. She is a little princess who will worm her way into someone’s heart (that does not have smalls).From her fosters 4/23/25: Buckley is a super sweet, young girl. She is easily able to entertain herself with toys and is just as easily able to nap and lounge around. Buckley listens very well! If she is doing something she shouldn’t be, a simple “no” gets her to stop. She walks so well on a leash, and when she spots a squirrel or rabbit, she will typically just freeze in place and watch, but then moves on easily enough. After romping around in the back yard, she will come inside and patiently sit (and shake!) for a cookie. She eats like a champ and sleeps through the night. Buckley will be very happy in a home with a fenced yard and lots of toys! Available for adoption through Greyhounds Only, Inc., Adoption and Rescue.

Story
Sage is a very sweet, quiet and calm girl with seemingly no point to prove. She is decent on leash but dislikes wild turkeys! She has pretty flashy white markings along with her ebony coat. She makes good eye contact and will probably come out of her shell as she acclimates to life as a pet. Available for adoption through Greyhounds Only, Inc., Adoption and Rescue.

Story
Meet Strider, a well-mannered and playful Greyhound who loves his toys and is a great companion on walks. He responds to his name and walks beautifully on leash, making him a joy to take out and about. Strider is a calm traveler, settling in easily on car trips. While he’s not cat-workable, he did meet Sprout, a Jack Russell, during his assessment and showed a moment of interest, but quickly moved on after a friendly sniff. Strider’s easy-going nature and good behavior make him an ideal companion for someone looking for a friendly, active dog with a calm demeanor.

Story
Max is one of the most fun and charismatic dogs you will ever meet! He truly is a shining star filled “to the max” with love, affection and positive energy! Max is a very active dog who likes to have a good time. He loves his walks and keeping everyone on their toes! He unfortunately would not suit an older person or children too young, as he can be quite strong on leash, however he is equally as good at laying on the couch and dispensing smooches! Max is a funny guy; his favorite form of playtime is playing dress up with hats and sunglasses and striking poses for the camera! Too handsome not to be a model! Max is also a very social boy. He has met children on a few occasions and gets along well with them but has never lived with them. He gets along well with other dogs, particularly other female greyhounds and he once lived with a Jack Russell, however he would be better off as the only dog in the house as he does like to be the star of the show and the center of attention! Max would thrive in a home with an active couple or a family with teenagers who can keep up with his energetic lifestyle, take him on plenty of walks and give him a few hats to try on! More than anything, Max would thrive in a home that can give him as much love and joyfulness as he gives out -- which is a whole lot. Max is an absolute sweetheart and would make for a wonderful companion and pet. Available for adoption through Greyhounds Only, Inc., Adoption and Rescue.

Story
Meet Fernando, a handsome, sleek-coated puppy with a heart full of love and a spirit that can’t be dimmed!

Despite the tough start, Fernando has shown us just how resilient and determined he truly is.Although Fernando may have some hearing challenges—he may be deaf—it doesn’t stop him from being an active, playful, and affectionate boy. His disability doesn’t define him; it only adds to his uniqueness. He’s not letting anything hold him back from living life to the fullest, and he’s hoping to find a family who will help him thrive.This sweet boy is incredibly friendly with both dogs and people, and he’s eager to find that special person who will love him for who he is. Whether it’s snuggling on the couch, playing in the yard, or learning new tricks (he’s a quick learner, especially with hand signals!), Fernando will be the most loyal companion you could ask for.If you’re ready to open your heart to a beautiful boy who just wants to belong, Fernando is ready to meet you. He’s looking for a patient and loving home where he can grow and flourish into the amazing family member he was always meant to be. Could that be with you?
