​First, a word on cat trainable dogs...  

Picture
 Dogs that are deemed 'cat-trainable' have been tested to see how they react to cats, however, this does NOT mean they will do fine with cats immediately. We always suggest a cautious introduction as well as continued training to help ensure a healthy and safe relationship between your new greyhound and your small household pets. We use the term 'cat-trainable', rather than 'cat-safe' so you are not lured into a false sense of security. We want you to be prepared for some amount of work with introductions.  We will provide you with the necessary tools and education to ease the introduction between your new pet and your existing pets.

Our policy is to reserve the cat-trainable dogs for those homes that truly require them. If you have no small animals, you will need to adopt a dog that is not deemed small animal trainable.

Maynyrd (Ice Wave)
DOB: 5/25/2017
Cat Trainable – 
NO

Maynyrd is an easy going, friendly, and mellow guy. He enjoys spending time with his foster family whether it is playing, walking or binge-watching chick flicks.

He’s still figuring out stairs and hardwood floors, as he’s newly retired from a brief racing career. He is not a fan of cats or small dogs, and when he plays he goes all out, so a household with only older kids or adults is the best fit.

Maynyrd needs a home with a larger canine buddy and ideally a 6' fence, but may be workable with a shorter fence.

He is available for adoption in Western Washington​


​A fenced yard is required to adopt Maynyrd.

DOB: 2/1/2018
Cat Trainable – 
NO

Mandy is a friendly, happy girl. She is a youngster and a little overwhelmed with her new life.  She will need a little time and love to build her confidence.

Pool (WW Dead Pool) ADOPTED
DOB: 2/20/2017
Cat Trainable – 
NO

Pool is a mellow, confident former racer who is looking for his furever home. He tends to take things in stride and eats, sleeps, and crates well. He loves squeaky toys and would very much like to catch a squirrel or a crow.

He doesn’t want to live with cats but he may get along with small dogs with time and practice. Pool is quite a people person, and will request plenty of snuggles. He is most comfortable in his crate, so please have one available for him (he’s 74 lbs - a fairly big boy).

​Pool would do best in a home solo or with a female dog and a home with a 6' fence..

He is available for adoption in Western Washington​

Hippie (WW Hypnotized) ADOPTED
DOB: 3/1/2016
Cat Trainable – 
Yes

Hippie is a gentle and loving four year old petite girl who is retired from a long racing career (210 races!!!) She greets you happily with a wagging tail. She is calm and gentle with our young grandchildren (a toddler, preschooler and 2nd grader). She does well with our other greyhound and they walk nicely together. Hippie has shown only curiosity about our cat. She will follow the cat at his pace down the hall but has not chased him.

Hippie enjoys being with her humans yet is comfortable being in another room. Although she has a bed in our room, she has chosen to sleep at night in a room by herself. Some nights she and our greyhound are in the same room other nights in separate rooms.

Hippie is learning the house rules quickly. She does not get onto the furniture. Currently we are working on improving her door manners, waiting for permission to go down the front stairs, and to leave the kitchen while we are preparing meals. She seems to prefer soft yet firm correction commands.

She is somewhat food motivated but does not gulp down her food. She and our greyhound eat with a couple of feet of each other.
​
Hippie is a wonderful, loving dog. A fenced yard is required to adopt Hippie. The family who is approved as her furever home are the luckiest people ever!

​Hippie needs a home with a canine buddy.
