Eddie came to All About Hounds from the Greyhound race track in Mobile, Alabama. He is a large dark brindle boy who is confident and loving. His foster mother has this to say about Eddie:
"He does sleep really well throughout the night in his crate. He is getting along fine with Arlo and Minnie (foster brother and sister) He is eating well and seems to do okay in his crate. We took him for a walk yesterday and he did very well, not pulling. He has got quite a swing in his hips too. He's very stunning and very sweet. He will just come up and stand there for you to pet him and will take as much as you will give him."
This boy's photos do not do him justice. He is stunning. He is looking for his forever home. Is it YOU?

Eddie Update 2-12-15

Eddie is discovering toys and loves to play. He acts like a puppy and is full of himself.
He is very curious and has his nose in everything, but overall a good boy. He follows EVERY step you make. You open the closet to hang up clothes, he’s going in too. Getting stuff out of the dryer, he’s with you…even crawled in the dryer to check it out. Bathroom? He’s on it! What’s that poking you in the behind? IT’S EDDIE’S NOSE!!!! You never ever have to be alone when you have Eddie.

He’s a gorgeous boy, absolutely striking. He's a loving hound and likes nothing better than to be near you and get pets. He can't wait to find a family to love and call his own.

Ahouseisnotahome, ​"House"

Arrived in January 2015

House has been with us for almost a month now. He’s just a big, beautiful teddy bear who wants to be loved on all day long. Everyone gives him compliments during our walks, probably because of his irresistible charm and plush and shiny tuxedo coat (not a single hint of kennel-butt to be seen!). House is completely housebroken, has great leash manners and is fine in his crate while his humans are at work or school during the day. There have been no displays of aggression towards people or other dogs big or small, but we haven’t seen him interact with a cat before. He’s very quiet, but you’ll occasionally hear snuffling sounds from him when he’s happy or excited. He sometimes forgets how big he is, so when he sees you after a long day, he may bump into furniture or slip and slide on the tile/hardwood floor in his excitement to welcome you home (he likes to lean but he would never be impolite enough to jump on someone). House is very gentle with people, and he is very polite when meeting strangers or accepting treats.

     House is also fantastic when it comes to maintaining his hygiene. He loves having his coat brushed and tries to return the favor with lots of kisses. He is fine with getting nails trimmed and ears cleaned, and will even deal with his daily dental brushings with no complaints. He’s adapted wonderfully to apartment living and the life of a beloved pet, and he calmly looks to his owners for guidance in new situations. In just a few days, he was able to climb six flights of stairs by himself and he’s a pro in the elevator.  He stays off of the furniture and has not tried to counter-surf once (though he’s so tall he can easily stick his nose into things if you aren’t watching). A simple no is more than enough to deter any unwanted behavior. House is just a beautiful and loving boy who dreams of sharing all of his love with some lucky family, big or small. He is great as a silent study buddy or an active jogging partner or even an expert squirrel catcher; he really is an outgoing and confident dog who just wants to be happy with his family.

​​Jolene is such a sweetie. She likes her quiet time in her crate when Dottie is running around playing, which is a lot. She loves to see people and gets very excited. She used to jump but I've got her out of that mostly.

    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!
