It's time for our semi-annual shout-out. Please, everyone join in.

I'm Pam and I live in the High Desert of Southern California. Currently, I am greyhoundless, but hoping. I am owned by a 13 y/o whippet named Angel, a 6 y/o lab/newfie named Jamie and a 5 y/o, small, white, curly ball of noise neamed Murphy.

Adopting one greyhound will not change the world, but the world will change for that one greyhound.

Cheryl in NJ, I currently have only one grey named Silly Girl. I had to put Sam down about 10 days ago as he had bone cancer that was moving into his lungs. It was a very quick decision I made, and was glad I did not have to agonize over the decision.Silly Girl misses Sam, but is getting used to be an only dog.
I also have 2 skin kids, (Lauren who is 21 and a jr at Indiana University, and Hailey, who is 17 and a jr in high school)as well as my husband Marty.

Hi Pam.. what a greyt idea to get this started. I am Gwen, live in Ohio with Butch, the other half of *us*, and am owned by 4 Greyhounds.... Jazzy (Carolina Jazz), my almost 12 year old red fawn happy boy with the now helicopter *stub* and his adorable buck teefies; Aimee (Lady Dominator), our blue brindle girl who was 6 in January, is my stuffie eater, is a very well trained cell dog who still manages to be a total *air head*; Kylie (WhatUpBurn), our little black almost 4 year old black girly girl who was so spooky in her foster homes that she was labeled probably not adoptable ~ I was asked to adopt her (had adopted Luke) when I was looking for someone to help heal the hole in my heart from losing Kianna, Luke, Jessie and my Mom in a 10 month period. Well, that little girl sashayed her way into my heart the first time we met, caused me to fall in love immediately and has never been spooky with me EVER. Just another of those *meant to be* adoptions. And then there is Dakota T Roo who we adopted when he was a teeny baby and who came to live with us when he was 9 weeks old. He has provided us with a whole lot of laughter in times when we had no other reason to laugh. Dakota was 5 in December and is a white parti with red, red fawn and red ticking. There is Taz, our all white wonder kitty, Al, Jake's betta, and the remaining two tetras in the aquarium.

Hi, I'm Toni from a suburb near Chicago. I'm owned by two littermates, the blonde Luke (Ale J Hawk - Chris) and the redhead, Mike (Ale J Hawk - Mike). They are 7. I adopted Luke 5 years ago after he broke his hip racing. I watched his brother race for the next 3 years. He adopted me when Geneva Lakes closed. It took a couple of months for me to realize he was adopted and not a foster.

Sue here, living in the Fenland area of England. I think I'm the only member from the UK posting here these days. I'm retired now and have naughty greyhound girl Tru who is mostly black and 10 in a week's time. My black lurcher boy Sonny is three-quarters greyhound and is 9 now and I also have foster greyhound brindle boy Benny just 7 years old, who has been here for 5 months and is still looking for a home of his own.

I'm Joy, from Folsom (the city.. not the "gated" community)California. I have been into greyhounds since 1995 and am currently owned by Lilly, who will be 7 in August. Lilly and I also live with Rascal and Rex, cairn terriers (think... Toto in Wizard of Oz was a cairn) and Mackie, my scottie. So as you can see, in addition to a love of greyhounds, I have an addiction to terriers
