...beyond the finish line

Greyhounds are among the most gentle dogs on earth. They make great pets and are very easy to care for. But, they do have some special needs, so please download our brief handbook and become acquainted with this unique breed. Many greyhounds get along with cats and other small animals in a home. Most are laid back with a calm and loving disposition. They shed little and are very clean, without the "doggy" smell of most canines. They must be kept as indoor pets and cannot be trusted off leash. But, beware; like potato chips, you'll want more than one! Come on in and browse our site to meet a fast friend...

Our group formed in July 2007. We placed 72 ex-racing greyhounds that year. In 2008, 140 greyhounds found homes and in 2009, 166 lucky puppers went home. So far this year, we've taken in 14. We could not do this without our awesome team of dedicated and caring volunteers! Many thanks to Chuck, Karen, Nancy, Brian, Kim, Ross, Arty, Reina, Tammy, Margie, Gary, Judi, Bill, Mitzi, Paige, Steve, Mickey, Jackie, Barbara, Armand, Brian, Michelle, Matt, Cappy, Sally, Lee, Debbie W., Debby M., Ed E., Marie, Kevin, Kristin, Charlene, Melissa, Jill, Ed S., Jay, Bob, Mary, Laurie, Jenn, Steve, Michelle, Paul and Missy.

Sunday, January 31st - God's Greyts Greyhound Community Picnic
2-5 pm  No RSVP needed...
7259 Hiawassee Oak Dr. Orlando FL 32818

All central Florida Greyhounds and their humans are invited to attend. Property is fenced and the greys can run around loose to their heart's content, while the humans enjoy a pot-luck picnic, games, Chinese auction, raffle and shopping for greyhound supplies.

For sale, we'll have Greyhound coats, dog beds, collars, leashes, dog toys, muzzles, T-shirts, jellies and preserves. We'll also have Frontline Plus (6 for $55, Advantix (6 for $55), Leba III ($35), all at prices lower than you can find anywhere on earth! Bring cash or your checkbook and stock up on these essential items. Your purchase will benefit the homeless hounds of God's Greyts, an IRS recognized 501(c)(3).

Only Greyhounds are allowed, (no other breed of dog), and your Greyhound must wear a muzzle, so be sure to bring one for each hound. If you don't have a muzzle you may purchase one at the event or possibly borrow an old one, if any are left. Any unmuzzled greys must be kept on leash. Also, you might want to bring a towel or two, so you can hose your dog off before going home. We do have a couple of small lakes on our property and the dogs do sometimes go in for a dip :-) 

This event is Pot-Luck. If you want to eat with us, please bring a small covered dish or dessert to share and a serving spoon, if your dish requires one. Labeling your serving pieces with your name would be a good idea. There is a very small propane grill available. God's Greyts will be providing the beverages and paper/plastic ware. Also, bring lawn chairs and/or blankets to sit on while we chat and eat or watch the dogs play. Be sure to bring your sunscreen, sunglasses and your camera for some greyt action photo opportunities! 

Please park in the street, not in the driveway and be extremely careful coming through the gate, making sure it is securely latched, so you don't let any dogs out. Come wearing something you don't mind getting "doggy" and wear sneakers or other sturdy shoes, not your most beautiful high heeled sandals!

This year, we are asking anyone who is able to bring a bag of Purina Dog Chow (in the green bag...any size!) as a donation and leave it in front of the garage on your way in. God's Greyts foster dogs will greytly appreciate this!!! Cash donations also greytfully accepted at the picnic or by paypal on our website.

Hope to see you!
