I just wanted to update on how Bandit is doing. My husband got home from his deployment and they took to each other very well. We have been in Phoenix now for about 3 months and he did wonderful adjusting! We could not be more happy with him and he love snuggling with our pug and gets along great with our cat! He is such a loving dog! We take him to the dog park here frequently and he gets along with every dog he meets. He is so laid back. Thank you guys so much for all that you do for these rescue dogs. Rachel

Hello, (from Penny's mom)

We have settled in to our home in California. Penny and our other rescue dog, Pippa, are fabulous friends and love being with one another. Penny chases Pippa and Pippa loves it. Pippa will get up on her hind legs to kiss her and basically wrap her front paws around Penny's neck, like she is hugging her. They have lots of toys and enjoy playing tug-a-war together with them. They are soooo cute together. We walk them around our neighbor every day, but we also have hiking trails within walking distance that they enjoy going to and playing in the creek.... Rachel loves, loves, loves Penny and just doesn't ever seem to get enough of her cuteness. Penny still sleeps with her most of the time.

June 18, 2014 it's a dogs' life at Duane's. After back surgery, nurses Lola and Lexi are helping him recoup and sleep in.

June 17, 2014 Lola at Duane's - look at that bed!

turning around to say goodbye!

Bexata Velvet is depicted on the winning design t-shirt her adopted family's daughter did for school. Heaven is eleven and quite talented.

May 30, 2014 Einstein is adopted

May 24, 2014, Field Champion Dalphina is adopted

May 17, 2014 Bandit update

The first picture is more recent. He's made himself comfortable enjoying the luxury of being allow on the couch! And the second pic is a week or so after we brought him home playing with the pug in the yard! I thought you might enjoy seeing some pictures of him. I must get some of him and the cat interacting for your website. It's amazing how well he has adapted to living with a cat, smaller dog, baby and toddler. We just love him so much! I hope you got the shirt in the mail. If I get anymore good pics I will send them.

May 14, 2014 Pork Chops

Sherry, Porkchops loves to sleep on the my bed more than his. I already took him to the dog park and he socializes extremely well with other dogs. My family absolutely loves this dog and he's been just a great dog with us. Michael

May 10, 2014 Chloe is now Sierra and pictured with her new moms, Kay and Carol, and little dog family.

Thank you guys! We made it home awhile ago and so far he is getting along great with our pug and has met the cat and didn't act very interested in her at all. He did great in the car! My son is named Finn!

April 9, 2014 Bexata Willow at home (you can see Willow lure coursing, too)

Did I tell you that my sweet girl Dancy has taken this new little rescue girl from the shelter under her wing? They are the cutest thing ever. The little one, Cricket, sleeps in the crease of Dancy's leg. Second picture is Derry our IG Dancy and little Cricket her buddy.

April 6, 2014 Katie's girl Molly enjoys her bed and toys at home

Just wanted to send a quick hello. Molly is doing wonderfully. I wanted to send a few photos to you because Molly was feeling photogenic. The outside photo is of her trying to track down a critter she spotted from a distance with her trademark "one ear up." The other two are of Molly being a happy, lazy dog with her little "dollies." She's so cute, she just isn't comfortable unless she has her little stuffed friends next to her. The cats are really starting to warm up to her so who knows, maybe they'll be next to snuggle up to her on the doggie bed. I hope things are well for you!! Take care!

March 2, 2014 Dancy under covers

Haven't spoke to you in a while. Our puppy is adjusting well. I found him like this earlier today.

February 20, 2014 Hummer came out with his adopting family, Natalie and Tyler, for lure coursing practice. He looks wonderful and it was a joy to see him again. He is a former rescue Greyhound as well, retired from the track due to an injury. Looking good!

Tyler helped pull up the pulleys and all the kids followed him, Hummer and some of his adoptable friends. Check out the lure coursing page and available Greyhounds pages to see more.

February 20, 2014 Lexi at Duane's doing what she does best! Now that's one secure, happy, well adjusted and secure (former) rescue Greyhound.

February 10, 2014 Lola is a couch warmer!

February 9, 2014 - Willow and Foxie Hanzelka

Sherry, It will be 2 years in April since she became a member of our family.

Kitty is doing well. She is a spoiled love greyhound. Take care, Rosemary

Happy in his new home!

He is warming up to us. I think he's comfortable because he's started laying around the house instead of in his kennel.

Just a couple photos I have now. We got him a sweatshirt for the cold walks. He won't get up on the couch by himself but once he's up there he will lounge. I've been laying him on the beanbag chair to get his sweatshirt on and off. Last night I caught him laying on it on his own.

We are working on the stairs with him, but he hasn't been interested. We have seen a lot more of his personality in the last few days. I'll keep you updated and send better pics later.

January 13, 2013 Lady Love is adopted. She's going to jog and enter events with her new mom, Katie.

Here she was at Bexata before leaving with Katie.

Love is a beautiful white/black girl who will be three September 20, 2013.

She loves lure coursing, too. At the rest stop coming to Bexata.

Beauty Lady Love is a great lure coursing Greyhound and a very sweet girl.

Kato a year later - December 29, 2013

Happy Holidays! We can’t believe it’s been a year since we came and got Kato (Buddy)! He now has a little brother, a one year-old Siberian Husky. He’s pure white. They are constantly playing with each other.

I’ve attached some pictures. One is Kato and his newest brother, Atlas, hanging out in the living room. Another is Kato in his typical legs-in-the-air relaxed position. The third is Kato, Atlas and their “little” big brother getting a little training from our youngest daughter, Michaela.

We hope all is well with you.

November 23, 2013 Lola with her new mom and dad in her new home in Arizona. They loved their son's adopted Greyhound Lexi so much, that their son adopted Lola for them. What a lovely anniversary present and a Happy Thanksgiving for all. She sleeps on the bed with them , hangs out in her new dad's office and gives happy good morning greetings to all. She also sleeps with mom until mom gets up while dad makes breakfast!!!! What a life! .

Lola was a gift from their son for their 50th wedding anniversary. She has taken over!

November 16, 2013 right at home with Lexi (Beata adopted GH) and Jasmine, Lola has made herself right at home.

Greyhound girls never forget each other. Lola and Lexi

When the other kids go out to play, Lola stays in bed. She has to get accustomed to their schedule.

November 18, 2013 Sweetie was a best in field lure courser in Texas and now hunts hares in Mexico. She LOVES it! She was not fast enough to make it to the race track and she was never injured, so there is a joy for her chasing the lure or a real rabbit. There is no reason a Greyhound cannot enjoy what it was bred to do just because it's "retired" from racing. On the other hand, they make great couch warmers, too!

November 14, 2013 Willow has moved in and is sharing a dog bed with the family IG Bullitt.

November 9, 2013, Lola is a spayed, retired UKC and AKC champion. She is long since retired and now has her own home in AZ where she will be one on one with a retired couple, sharing the house only with a Scottie. She leaves Nov.15 and she will have the life she loves - in the house, on the couch, walks on lead with adoring adopters.

On her way to her new retirement home, she took over the wheel for a bit. <G>

October 26, 2013 . Velvet found Rubys bed (dachshund) It is a cat sized bed. Gotta love the Greyhound rescues.

It's been awhile since we gave you an update, so I just wanted to send you a note and say that Nemi is doing great! She is so super sweet and has made a lot of friends in our house, between the kids and the cats and our IG Tabouli. I'm attaching a few pictures of her. One grinning on the couch, and two with Tabouli.
