Trick or Treat!
Hello NLGA Dog Blog Readers!
Have you ever wondered what a greyhound thinks about on Halloween? He might have something other than candy on his mind . . .

Gone National
Hello NLGA Dog Blog Readers,
We recieved a note from a greyhound friend that recently moved to Denver...
"This picture was at my local Denver carwash (Car Wash Waterworks on Broadway)... pet's welcome. These pups look very familiar to me :) when I inquired inside, they said they download it from the internet. Warmed my heart to see MN friends posted in my neighborhood ♡"
It's pretty fun that a picture from the NLGA Dog Blog made it to a Denver carwash!

What Rounder Found
Hello NLGA Dog Blog Readers!
Have you been keeping your eyes open and taking a look around you?
Rounder and his "sister" Abby found some good smells on their walk, but they also found Rounder's tongue! I call this his "thinking face," LOL!
If you have spotted anything on your walks, let us know! nlgahounds@gmail.com

Bedtime Snack
Hello NLGA Dog Blog Readers!
Greyhounds are creatures of habit, especially when food is involved! Does your hound have a certain time of the day (or night!) when he can expect some snacks?

I'm Adopted
Hi, Everybody!
My name is Day and I'm adopted! I was adopted, through Northern Lights Greyhound Adoption, by my parents on December 16, 2013.
My mama has been searching for pictures of me during my racing career but has had no luck at all in that area so my story shall begin here.....
After I had run my last race as a professional athlete, I retired from my life at the track and went to live with an incredible foster family who all helped me learn the beginnings of life in a house. They all loved me and cared for me just like I was one of their own and I know they will always be a big part of who I am. These are some pictures my foster parents took of me and there's even one of me with my foster brother and sister!
