 When a greyhound is welcomed into our home, they become a member of the family. When they leave this life, we mourn them as one of our own. This page is a tribute to those special members of our family who touched our lives, shared our souls, and commandeered our couches.
If one of these hounds were near and dear to your heart, please consider making a memorial donation in their name. All proceeds go to help future hounds race to their forever home.
To have your loved greyhound posted here, send an e-mail with photo and story to tribute@greyhoundadoption.com.

 Belle (DB Terra Belle)2001-2008 Loved by Kay Roberts
Belle was my first introduction to the wonderful world of greyhounds. It was my intention to be able to take Belle to meet and greets and events, but she had different plans! Belle was truly a dog snob and would growl and snap at any and all dogs at events. That is where she got one of her nicknames, Witchey Woman. She was a people dog. |

 BlackfootLoved by the Weber Family
We were given this darling 7 yr old, he had raced in Kansas and won many times, then he broke his left front leg, went through rehab and raced in Denver and won many races but broke his leg again. His owner was going to be driving over the road and could not take along, so he was given to us. |

2001-2008 Loved by the Coke Family
We will never forget the first time we laid eyes on our brown-eyed girl. We drove to Denver to pick up our first foster greyhound. All we knew was she was a two-year-old female. When she walked through the doors at the vet’s office, she was white, black, and skittish. |

 Diana and Connie 1999-2007 and 2008 Loved by Jessica
These beautiful littermate sisters raced into my heart in 2002. The joy, love, and gentleness they brought with them forever changed my life. While we may wish to keep our greyhound family members with us forever, they are angels on loan and eventually leave us. |

 Georgia (Little Honker)
1995-2008 Loved by the Weber Family
One day in July, a beautiful brindle greyhound showed up at our house. She had no tags, so we contacted the Humane Society. I waited to hear her family had come to get her but they did not, so we adopted her. Her racing name was Little Honker, but her name was Georgia. |

 Hal (Pat C Holiday)
1997-2008 Loved by the Salley Family
Heaven just got a little better. Our boy Hal went there this afternoon, after a nice breakfast of steak and eggs, and a walk at Chatfield with his family. He was a little slower than usual, and his step was hesitant because of his bone cancer, but he spent an unusual amount of time languishing in the river. |

 Hogan (GS Dewey's Hogan)
2002-2008 Loved by the Zanella Family
Hogan made his way into our family seamlessly. We feel lucky that he chose us. He was never at a loss to communicate what he wanted and he always seemed to know what we needed, be it a kiss or a stuffie strategically aimed at the head. Hogan died quite unexpectedly at the age of 6. The members of our family cherish the memories we have and will never forget the joy he brought to our lives. |

 James (James Bond)1998-2007 Loved by Dori Webb
James was my first greyhound and was a huge joy in my life. He was a people dog that loved absolutely everyone! He would have made a perfect therapy dog except for his habit of marking everything. If marking is a way of claiming ownership, then he owned the entire neighborhood, a few pet stores, and a couple of houses. |
