Canyon is a wonderful happy 3 yr-old boy. He is a more active boy and would do great with someone who can take him on walks and play with him. In short bursts of course he is a greyhound. He does wonderfully when walking on the leash. Canyon loves attention and will come over and just put his head in your lap for attention. He is a playful guy and loves squeaky toys. He will toss his toy around in the back yard and run after it. We do think he would do better with someone who has a fenced yard so he can run around and get his energy out. He also needs to be with other dogs - he has some anxiety and as long as he has some canine companions he does great. He is also living with two cats. He was a bit curious at first but now knows the cats are part of the pack. Canyon is being fostered in Cedar Rapids.

Meet Star Jones (Star Jones), a fabulous little 5-year-old girl. Star Jones is affectionate and outgoing. She is a curious girl who enjoys exploring the world. Star Jones mastered the steps in one try, hopped into the car without any prompting, and doesn't mind slick floors a bit. She loves playing with toys and napping on a soft bed. This girl would be perfect for a first-time adopter. She hasn't been cat tested yet.

Mike is a two year old greyhound who was retired due to a stopper bone injury. This caused him not to be able to race but does not affect him at all in retired life. Mike is a calm boy who really just wants to snuggle with his humans. He does wonderfully with all size dogs and all people he has met, including small children. He is very playful and would love a family that would not mind playing with him. He does know when he is in the house that he needs to be calm and has learned the rules of the house very quickly. He is just learning about squeaky toys and thinks they are the best thing since sliced bread (though he does not know about sliced bread). He loves taking walks with his foster brothers and sisters. When Mike wants attention he gives you the sweetest look with his beautiful melty eyes. No mere human can resist. Mike is not cat safe so a home without cats would be best.

Hello! My name is Donate a Dollar but my foster family calls me Luna because yelling out Donate a Dollar on walks made them sound silly. I like Luna and already answer to it. I’m 5 years old and am a pretty quiet girl. I’m slowly learning how to be a house dog. My foster family is excited because I’ve had no accidents inside! I enjoy being snuggled and lots of pets from the human children and don’t mind my greyhound brother and sister at all. I’m now taking applications for a couch to call my own.

Yeah Yeah is a beautiful red male who has been with us for a few weeks recovering from a spider bite.

Athena & Venus are two peas in a pod. These greyhound mixes (Staghounds) were found together as strays, and share an obvious bond. We are certain they are related, possibly mother and daughter. They are a loving, quiet, and easy pair. They're looking for a home where they can stay together. We think Athena is around 6-7 years old, and Venus may be a year or so younger. Athena is about 60lbs. She is quiet and enjoys being close to her people. Athena is not demanding about attention, but she will gaze into your eyes and sit forever as she gets her chest rubbed. Although she likes to chew on bones, her favorite toy activity involves finding all toys in the area and collecting them into a pile! She shares well with others and likes to cuddle up with Venus or her humans. She is adorable when excited and is prone to giving gentle hugs or zooming in the yard when revved up. She walks well on a leash and doesn’t make a peep in her kennel. Venus is about 50lbs. She loves to see what you are up to and enjoys a good snuggle with her people, Athena, or the resident dogs. She adores squeaky toys, chewing on bones, entertaining herself by tossing toys around, and “burying” toys in blankets or between beds. She walks well on a leash and is curious about new surroundings. She can’t help but nuzzle into people and burrow into/under blankets and dog beds. Venus is the more vocal of the two: she pants or growls when she is excited/playing. She picks up on new commands and routines without a problem! Weaknesses include: marshmallows, the smell of clean laundry, a good squeaky toy, and having her ears or rump scratched.
