Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sonny will arrive from Ireland on February 18th, He is a sweet and sensitive boy, a little shy until he gets to know you, and will then be your best friend. He already walks well on his lead and enjoys exploring new places. He would love a quiet home where he would be the center of attention. Sonny would love a home without small children and would do well as an only dog or with another greyhound. He is not good with small dogs. He will be a lovely companion for the right home. Sonny has an old hock injury which does not affect him at all. He has been chosen for our prison training program at Central Florida Reception Center in Orlando. While there he will be taught all of his basic commands. We will be happy to show him to you before he goes into training. Just call or wend us an e-mail expressing your interest in Sonny. For more information on the prison training program, please go to our website, www.bayareagreyhounds.org, and click on Prison Trained Greyhounds. Sonny will graduate and be ready to go home with you around May 10th. We will get better photos of him when he arrives.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption process is easy! You complete and submit an Application to Adopt, on-line through our website. If you have pets, they will need to be spayed or neutered, current on vaccines, and on heartworm preventative. If you rent, you will need to have permission from your landlord to have a dog the size of a greyhound. After your application is approved, you will have an opportunity to meet the greyhound you have chosen and to make sure that he or she and your pets are compatible. Adoption fees range from $250 for seniors (age 7 ad older). We have a limited number of "prison trained" greyhounds who will be trained in all their basic commands. The adoption fee depends on our price for shipping from Ireland. and is listed on the profile for each dog.
The adoption fee partially defrays the veterinary costs we incur. Before adoption, your greyhound will be spayed or neutered, have had his or her teeth cleaned, received all vaccines, Bordetella (to guard against kennel cough), had a routine fecal check and wormed if necessary, have been micro chipped,and have been started on heartworm preventative. You will also receive a leash and collar, adoption guide, grooming glove, stuffie toy, turn-out muzzle, BAGA ID tag, toothbrush, and oral gel.
