We are a greyhound rescue group in the Nashville, TN area focused on finding homes for retired racers. We do so through public awareness and adoption programs supported by an active volunteer base, who share the passion of finding forever homes for these wonderful greyhounds.
Unfortunately, Minnie has been returned to our group through no fault of her own. Her family had to move across several states and could not take her with them. Minnie, her previous family called her Molly, is returning to her previous foster home. This amazingly beautiful girl deserves to find her forever home. She would bring a lot of joy hand happiness to your family.
Here is what my Foster Mom had to say about me.
March 2014, Minnie is a very sweet, submissive greyhound that gets along with males and females alike. She is very fun loving and enjoys running laps in the backyard and playing chase with her foster siblings. She loves to roach and have her belly scratch, and she also loves to be in the same room as you. If you leave a room or go somewhere she doesn't follow, she will lay down and wait for you to return. She crates well, loves to eat, and has never had an accident in the house. She knows how to go up and down stairs, and she is well behaved in the car. She does not get up on the furniture and she is not cat safe. Minnie loves to play but does not seem to enjoy going on walks (we are working with her on this). She has a tendency to "freeze" and refuses to continue the walk. During the Smyrna Christmas Parade, Minnie walked about mile, but preferred to ride in the back of the truck for the rest of the parade. Overall, she is a very sweet and loving greyhound waiting for her forever home. She has a lot of love to offer anyone who adopts her.
Foster Mom,
Lisa

Dottie is doing wonderful. She has settled in nicely here with her temporary brother and sister, and even does well with the two mean cats she is living with. She loves to lay in the bed and snuggle right up next to her humans and fellow hounds. She does not seem to have any space issues whatsoever. She loves to play with stuffies and runs through the house full speed with them.
She also loves to run around the backyard and will do it by herself if the others don't want to participate. She is a very happy dog and is always just looking at you wagging her tail. She adores attention and will fall asleep next to you while you are petting her. Oh and like most, she of course loves her treats!

Vixen is settling in well. Last night I took her out on leash in the front of the house so that to go potty. She’s a little skittish whenever a car passes but did well otherwise. She decided the 3 stairs out front were too much of a bother and jumped off the front porch going out and jumped back up coming in. The next day she mastered the stairs on her own.
Vixen spent the night exploring and checking out her new home, and she’s getting along well with our two greyhounds. Our cats told her in no uncertain terms to “back off” and she let them be, but other than that she shows no interest in the cats.
She seems to be happy. She’s a tail wagger. Contact AAH if you are interested in the sweet beautiful girl.

Dash is a happy 2 year old "tuxedo" boy, even though he is straight off the track. He has adjusted to retirement like a champ. Dash has already discovered stuffies, mastered the stairs, and has no problems walking on floors. He loves playing in the backyard and running with his foster sister, Leah. So far he crates perfectly.

Heart
(renamed Juno), is an exceptionally sweet and affectionate little girl, and the
easiest dog we’ve ever worked with (EVER!). Juno is in her prime at the age of
three and is recovering beautifully from a broken hock on her hind left leg.
Don’t let it fool you, she has kept up with us easily on her three good legs,
and she’s using her 4th more and more each day. She loves her crate,
and goes in to snooze throughout the day, even when we don’t ask her to. Juno
is very quiet and never barks unless she just can’t hold it anymore or some dog
gets too pushy around her face. She’s very much a people person, and will go up
to anyone to ask for a nice scratch (a real crowd pleaser); be prepared for all
of the compliments you’ll receive on her super soft and beautiful red brindle
coat. She loves squeaky toys and likes to walk around the home squeaking them
in her mouth. Juno is great with stairs, though she’ll get annoyed if you ask
her to climb too many floors at time. She loads easily into cars, but if you
have a taller car, you may have to help her up until her hind leg fully heals.
She falls right asleep during drives.
Juno has
some unique quirks that makes her that much more special. She has the softest
little Mohawk running down her neck (trust me, she pulls it off better than any
person), and she can also play fetch. She’ll go racing after tennis balls and
drop them at your feet. She has never lunged on the leash, and is quite happy
to stick next to your side, though her ears will perk up at the occasional
squirrel or rabbit. Juno has never come close to having an accident in the
house, nor has she counter-surfed, gotten on furniture, or displayed any type
of aggression or fear towards humans (including around food, treats, and while
sleeping). A few spoonfuls of greek yogurt as a treat has kept away any gas
attacks she might have. She’s great about her maintenance too: easy to brush
her coat and teeth, trim her nails, clean her ears etc. She takes it all in
stride and will probably fall asleep half way through.
Juno is
currently the only animal in our home, and she has no anxiety or problems being
left alone. She shows very little interest in interacting with other animals,
big or small, preferring to be with her humans, but she does meet the
occasional dogs on walks, she is very polite. She’ll make a wonderful addition
to any family or lifestyle. Please feel free to contact us with any questions!
