While we are thrilled to have our new kennel up and running, we still endeavor to place senior and/or greyhounds needing a little more personal time and care into foster homes.  Our foster homes consist of experienced volunteers and greyhound owners who provide shelter to greyhounds in their own homes giving them love, tender loving care, transport to vet appointments, grooming and anything else they might need while they are in our system. Most dogs that are “Forever Fosters?” are dogs that are seniors who have been in our system for a while, sometimes years, or dogs that have special needs above and beyond what many adopters can handle.  Most “Forever Fosters?” are available for adoption, but generally they are only suitable for experienced adopters or those with a very specific home environment. Our “Forever Fosters?” are listed below.  They are surrounded by people who love them and have plenty of canine companionship at all times.  If you can't adopt a dog and you'd like to help, please sponsor one of our “Forever Fosters?”. Your sponsorship donation will help defray the costs involved in making our long term fosters comfortable while they wait for their forever homes. If you're interested in adopting one of these dogs, please contact the Vice President closest to you listed below or click the "Contact for more information" button included with each dog.

	Allie Tag No: 4413 Registered Name: Ranco Brandy Age: 11.5 Color: Brindle Cat friendly: Yes Dog friendly: Yes Kid friendly: No Location: Foster home Comments: Allie is a beautiful, smart 11 year old girl who loves the company of other greyhounds, and is cat friendly. She easily learned how to sit, down and even to salute. However when it comes to meeting new people, she needs a little more help. She wants to please, but her fear of strangers sometimes gets the best of her and results in very aggressive behavior. Long term observation and efforts to understand the reasons for her reactions has not revealed an answer. So, Allie is now loved, and we live with her quirks, but not without a few bites over the years. Sponsored by Deanna Ulino Also sponsored by Becky Kranz Also sponsored by Debbie Downin
	Buddy Tag No: 3927 Registered Name: USS Kickoff Age: 12.5 Color: Black Cat Friendly: Yes Dog Friendly: Ok with greyhounds, unknown with others Kid Friendly: Yes Location: Foster Home Comments: Buddy is a gentle old soul. Buddy and Blue were in the same home together and returned through no fault of theirs. Blue and Buddy are very bonded, are often found snuggling together, and are in the same foster home together. Buddy is almost completely blind and loves to snuggle in the recliner with his foster mom. Blue and Buddy will be together in their forever foster home until they pass to the Rainbow Bridge.  Sadly on 3/4/13, Blue passed to the Rainbow Bridge. Sponsored by Marilyn Baumann
