Meet the Hounds

Here’s your one stop shop for learning the basics about all of our dogs. Their bio info, adoption info, some personality info and whatever else we think is pertinent. We’ll be adding more info to this page, so check back! 


Haley
Pin Oak Halley
June 27, 1997
Female, White & Black
Greyhound Friends of NC
Haley is Heather’s first greyhound and currently the oldest in member of the pack. She can be quite reserved…Not shy, just…um…disinterested in most things. She takes her retirement *very* seriously.

Prajna
Crunchtime Casey
Sept 14, 1998
Male, Dun Brindle

Lucky Louis
Lucas
March 11, 2001
Male, White & Brindle
Private Adoption
Louis was supposed to be a ‘hard to place hound’ with house training issues and separation anxiety. We were also advised that he wasn’t very smart. Of course, nothing could be further than the truth! At some point he learned that people can be “bugged” into caving if he’s persistant. Well until he met us! He’s really just a big ol’ love bug of a dog. Confident in himself and willing to trust his humans at the same time.

Stella
U Too Navy Blue
July 20, 2001
Female, Blue
Stella Blue is our spooky girl, though she has made tremendous strides since we adopted her several years ago. She’s still a pretty spooky with strangers but is quite velcro-ey with ‘her” humans.

Hanna
Fast Movin’ Mary
Sept 1, 2001
Female, Brindle
Project Racing Home
Hanna, aka The Banana, is Heather’s second greyhound. She’s always been a quirkly little dog, though some of that is now explained by the fact that she’s been losing her sight due to PRA slowly over the years. She’s now completely blind, but you would really never know it. She doesn’t let it slow her down!

Melody
Jetabb Catfish
Feb 17, 2002
Female, Red
Greyt Expectations
Melody is a typical female greyhound. Fairly independent, but knows how to milk the humans for attention when she wants it. She’s pretty submissive with people but can be quite, well, bossy with dogs if we’d let her. She the reigning “fun police” with the pack. In the house, she loves to carry her “baby” around (a huge white and black stuffed animal dog).

Scout
KGB Bonnie Girl
March 20, 2002
Female, White & Red
Private Adoption

Echo
Danas Black Ink, FCh
April 29, 2003
Female, Black
Greyhound Crossroads
Echo was a failed attempt at fostering one of our Bridge boy Champ’s kids. She’s going 100 mph or laying down, she’s in your face or couldn’t care less about you…not much in between with this little one. Echo is also the first dog in our pack to earn a lure coursing title (Field Champion).
Rocky
Tame Rocky
April 29, 2003
Male, White & Black
Greyhound Crossroads
Rocky is Echo’s littermate and that’s pretty much where the similarity ends. He’s the quintessential “Mama’s Boy” and spends his time between sleeping, pining for his mama and searching for poo in the yard. You just have to love Rocky, he’ so sweet and goofy. Definitely a “people greyhound.”
Peanut
Lightning Lee
April 8, 2005
Female, Black
Private Adoption
Peanut had everyone fooled while she was racing. We all thought she was a shy, timid girl. When you opened her crate she’d tuck her tail and sometimes even pee submissively. But, when we brought this little roman-nosed girl home we discovered it was just a ploy! She’s really quite a handful…tenacious, loving, stubborn, velcro-ey. Always looking for something to get into. Just goes to show you that when you think you can profile a dog pretty well, there will always be some that will fool you.
Bindi
Denim Days
May 5, 2005
Female, Red Fawn
Private Adoption

Tater
Rights to Riches
May 12, 2005
Female, Black
Private Adoption

Diva
My Queen Theresa
July 1, 2005
Female, Red Fawn
Project Racing Home
It’s hard to believe the Diva we know today is the same super shy, undersocialized hound Heather had to *carry* out of the adoption facility. With a lot of patience and the power of the pack, Diva has matured into a spunky, energetic little girl. Too bad she never race because she’s one of the fastest dogs in the pack!
Primo
Da Big Guy
April 3, 2006
Male, Black
Private Adoption

The Staghound
