Adopted Greyhounds

Xena

HKF Blazin' Quick 06/16/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 226 It sure didn't take Blazin' Quick long to find a forever home. Quick is now Xena, and if you can't tell which one she is, she's the pretty one. Rob and Dave of Santa Rosa are great examples of how fostering a greyhound can work out well for adopter and for WCGA. Xena was their fifth foster dog and the one they decided to adopt. They are great foster parents and will continue to provide this invaluable service for us in the future.

Jasmine

Gulf War 06/08/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 228 Thank goodness Susan and Jack of Windsor adopted Gulf War two days after her arrival because, along with a wonderful new permanent home, she was also given a more appropriate name! War is now Jasmine or Jaz for short. Trey, Jack, and Susan are enjoying Jaz (foreground) while Jot is making sure her mom doesn't forget about her!

Harley

Nitro Copper 06/07/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 229 Deanne of Sacramento came to meet the dogs arriving from Oklahoma during our Retirement Party. Her friend was going to foster Harley, the craziest dog of all. Deanne fell in love with the nutty countersurfer and Julie agreed he would be a nice addition to their family. Harmony can be less than harmonious with other dogs at times, but apparently she gets along with Harley just fine. He must know his place in the pack!

Brinkley

Cricket Express 06/06/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 231 Kay has been anticipating the arrival of Cricket Express for weeks. She wanted an older boy and we were able to select the perfect dog. He will get along well with Natalie the Greyhound and he should be able to keep up with Kay and Natalie on their walks. Cricket is now Brinkley and is very happy to be at home in Sacramento.

Mojave

Onoco Xaviar 06/06/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 232 We couldn't have found a nicer boy for one of the nicest ladies in Sacramento. Xaviar is finally settled with Mary Lynne and Elly May (on the left) and his new name is Mojave. If it were up to Mary Lynne, she would adopt every single one of her foster dogs, but someone must have been watching out for Mojave. Just as her last foster found a home, Mojave became available for adoption and Mary Lynne scooped him up. She may have fostered him for eight hours before deciding to keep him!

Bridie

Mail Order Bride 05/30/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 234 Failing isn't always a bad thing...just ask Dan, Anna, and Leah of Santa Rosa! Bridie has been their foster dog since February and they just decided it was time to adopt her. Bridie is a shy little girl, but Creed is showing her the ropes and she is coming out of her shell more each day.

Lily

Lily 05/27/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 235 Well, Clifton and Isabel sure are happy to adopt sweet little Lily! Lily may not look too thrilled at this very instant, but it didn't take her long to become comfortable and relaxed in her new home in Sacramento. Lily's journey from racedog, to the abandoned wanderer, to foster dog, to retired couch potato was a long one. Soon she will know that this is the last stop for her and she can live out her life in peace. Phew!

Ruby

Rainbow Ruby 05/15/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 236 Isn't Ruby cute as a button? Julie and Sean of Windsor were perfectly pleased when they met this little girl on adoption day. Ruby is a lucky girl...she will be joining Julie at the winery during the week. She truly is a Wine Country hound!

Happy

Happy 04/16/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 238 Everyone seems happy to welcome Happy into their family. Leslie and Doug of Santa Rosa met Happy at the Home Show and knew she was the greyhound for them!

Leeta

Legs Oleeta 04/10/2009
Adoption blurbs for previous dogs 242 Jon and Judy of Santa Rosa had the opportunity to adopt a young greyhound, but they opted to bring Legs Oleeta, the 7 year old brood matron, home with them. Leeta is a sweetie and her personality is the perfect fit for Jon and Judy. Surely she will bring them years of happiness.
