Euro Has a Home

Euro--Adoption PendingPDFPrintE-mail

Racing name is Europol.   This beautiful black boy is 3.5 years old and he weighs 75 pounds

Euro is an independent thinker and soaks everything in.  He likes being outside and seeing all the world has to offer.  He thoroughly enjoyed hiking in the woods over the weekend.  Easily completed the 5k walk on Saturday and even found a small dog ‘friend’ to walk with along the way!  Euro enjoys meet & greets.  He likes all the other greyhounds and everyone who comes by to say ‘hi’; especially the kids!  He eats all his food, loves treats, and has an iron stomach.  He waits patiently to get his teeth brushed.  He has no problem going up or down the steep inside steps.  And sleeps soundly all night long with his eyes tightly shut.  Euro is not scared of loud noises, or thunder!  He is learning to play (he’s a ‘nitter’!) and is getting a bigger personality each day!  Hands down, Euro’s a keeper!  He is going to make a lucky someone an amazing greyhound friend!

Retired Racing Greyhounds Make Awesome Pets

You cannot go wrong by choosing to share your home with a retired greyhound.  Contrary to popular belief, they do not require much exercise and prefer to lay on a cushy dog bed (or the sofa) for most of the day.  Greyhounds do not tend to bark much, if at all, and do not get that stinky dog smell.  They seem more like really, really big cats!!  We will share information on this blog about the greyhounds that Northern Lights Greyhound Adoption want to place in a forever home.   Check back often for updates on how the dogs are doing in their foster homes.
