Introducing Jill: Jill is a happy dog who dances with joy for food, walks, or attention. She just oozes charm, and is estimated to be about 8 years old. Jill loves to play with her toys, and sleep on her dog bed. She's quiet except when she's stomping around shaking a toy. If you have a free hand, she will demand you never stop petting her; "Pet the Jill" is her favorite game. She is looking for quiet, relaxed home with only adults. She is great with other dogs, though should be fed separately. Jill is workable with confident cats.

The adoption fee for senior greyhounds through HGA is $200. This fee pays for medical costs including spay/neuter surgery, shots, parasite treatments, and teeth cleaning. HGA also microchips every greyhound prior to adoption as a permanent form of ID. The additional cost for this service is $10.99 which covers the chip, activation, and membership and is a substantial savings over the usual cost for microchipping. HGA collects the microchipping registration fee at the time of adoption, and registers the dogs through Home Again on the adopter's behalf. Each dog also comes with a special sighthound collar and leash set and muzzle. There is a $25 non-refundable application fee that is applied to an approved adoption.

Debuting Flash! He has been in foster care since October. Why so long? Flash was a year old in September. He is a tiny boy, weighing 55 pounds. He came to HGA with a broken front leg. Undoubtedly broke it playing because he is a puppy. He has had orthopedic surgery. It wasn’t completely successful and the break was severe. His front leg is still fragile, and may always be. He uses it as an arm and to balance on. He will need a special home. He is a super sweet boy. Flash is house and crate trained. His perfect home would have very few steps & not too much playing. That is hard for a puppy! He is so sweet, but still needs his mind kept busy. If you are Flash’s special home let us know.
