Greyhounds are gentle, noble, and sweet-tempered giants. They are lean and built for high speed pursuit, but are also content to lounge around the house all day.
In honor of National Adopt a Greyhound Month, we've been celebrating our Greyhound friends all month long as April's Breed of the Month. All Greyhounds and Greyhound mixes who come to Pet Paradise in April receive either a free ice cream treat OR a free Furever Connected!*
Looking to adopt someone Greyt? Greyhound racing is only legal in nine states, but the closing of tracks has led to a lot of misplaced hounds. If you're interested in opening your heart and home to one of these gentle giants, check out some of our local Greyhound partners for more information.
