Story
Moe is a wonderful old man. Unfortunately, my wife’s health is not doing well and I am having trouble balancing everyone’s needs. He is now left home alone more for long periods of time. Moe prefers to be home with someone to keep him company. We adopted him 7 years ago. He is between 13 and 15 years old now. He is very calm and just likes to hang out. He is still active for someone his age. He does have his senior days where he doesn’t like to walk and he will let you know. He is house trained, but please do not create. Whoever had him before must have created him for long periods of time. He is scared of the dark so he does his business outside quickly at night. He is great with kids and likes to be around people. My kids were 5 and 7 when we adopted him. Our kids taught Moe to play tag. We have a cat who he loves too. Please don’t feed him human food. His tummy can’t handle it.

These pups are in Tampa, Florida too!

Una will arrive from Ireland on April 22nd. She is a loving and quiet girl. she loves being groomed and is great for nail trims. She is very frienlyy, gets along great with children and does well with dogs of all sizes. She loves being petted and is a sweet, gentle, and easy going girl. Una has Pannus in her eyes and will need eye drops throughout her life to manage it. This is an easy procedure and dogs with pannus live long, healthy lives when they are medicated. Una is a very adaptable girl who will be sited to a wide variety of homes. Unflappable and chilled, she would love a forever home where she could get cuddles and lots of love. Una has been chosen for our prison training program, where she will be taught all of her basic commands (heel, sit, lie down, stay, wait, leave it, etc.) For information on Una, please call 813-935-3247 or e-mail.

Story
ADOPTION PENDING: Guinness arrived from Ireland on February 18th. His racing name was Bit View Bobby. He is a handsome, bright boy who is quiet, very easy going, and well behaved. He has the cutest ears--one folds forward and the other is upright. He walks very nicely on a lead and would love a home where he could go for daily walks around the neighborhood, or where he would have a fenced yard for quiet time and play. He loves to be out and about, and loves his people . He is curious and enjoys exploring the world around him. He gets along well with other dogs, both large and small, enjoys being groomed and made over and loves to travel in the car. He stood quietly for his bath and is an all around good dog. In Ireland,, bobby competed in 23 races and won 9 times, so he was a Grade A racer. He has a slight limp at a trot from an old racing injury. but is otherwise sound. The limp does not bother him at all, He loves to explore the yard in his foster home, is good with older, polite children. He would do well with a family and is laid back enough for an elderly couple. Guinness is the perfect, quiet, laid back, and sweet dog. It is difficult to believe he was such a good racer and in retirement is so mellow. 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 and will be fully trained when you take him home. Guinness will graduate and be ready to go home with you on around May 10th. For more information on the prison training program, please check our website, www.bayareagreyhounds.org and click on Prison Trained Greyhounds.
