Saturday 2/25/12 was our monthly rescued greyhound get together, also called a “Meet & Greet” at the Cape Girardeau, Mo. Petco location.
We use these Meet & Greets to familiarize people with what rescued greyhounds are like by making our own rescued and adopted dogs available for people to get acquainted with. The people, especially the kids, love it…and so do the greyhounds. The dogs are absolutely thrilled to see their “greyt” friends (other greyhounds) when they arrive and are also delighted and want to meet everyone else who comes in the door. They just cannot get enough of meeting new people!
We had a good turn out with 6 GPA members and 9 greys in attendance. There seemed to be a lot of serious interest in our program and many people picked up information in order to do their homework on what we’re all about and what these wonderful dogs have to offer. Our next M & G will be at the Carbondale, Il. Petco from 1:00 to 4:00 pm on March 10th.
Below are some photos from the 2/25/12 event…enjoy!

Wonderful turnout! Well done. Might be time to get mine “road-ready” for a trip down to Cape. Before the big Indy trip. Beautifully done!!
Hi
Thanks Nancy, as you know, its always a group effort.
Getting ready to go to Petco tomorrow in Carbondale…hope to have a nice turn out for that!
Love the picture of the greys sprawled out on the floor, not a care in the world. Reminds me so much of my dear Pepper who I lost last Friday to Osteosarcoma, evil taker of so many greyhounds. His sister, Kelly and I are very sad, but we are going to meet some greys that are ready for adoption at the end of this week. Thanks for all that you do to find these wonderful dogs new homes!
Hi Linda
So very sorry to hear of your loss, and thanks for your kind words. If you’re not a member of my FB group, The Greyt Galloping Greyhound Group…please join and post pics of Kelly and the new addition!
