Greyhounds Only, Inc. Greyhounds Only, Inc.'s Mission:
Match retired racing greyhounds with adoptive families in Illinois. However, there are always exceptions!
(47)

Some facts about retired greyhounds:

1) Retired racing greyhounds are gentle, sweet, good-natured dogs who can live in nearly every environment - from a city apartment to a sprawling country estate. Our adoption representatives help adopters find the hound that is right for them.

2) Greyhounds retire from their racing careers generally when they are anywhere between 2-5 years of age. Considering

the average lifespan of a greyhound is 10-14 years, these pups still a lot of living left to do!

3) Considered to be 40-mph couch potatoes, most greyhounds are your stereotypical lazy dogs. Even an active greyhound typically has a lower energy level than many other breeds.

🚨 Attention Greyhound Owners! 🚨

Did you know that greyhounds have unique blood values compared to other breeds? Their lean physique and high metabolism mean their bloodwork can look quite different. This can affect everything from anesthesia sensitivity to early detection of health issues. 🩺

Keeping your vet up-to-date with the latest blood value information is crucial to ensuring your greyhound receives the best care possible. Regular checks help manage their health and spot any potential issues early. 📋💉

Keep your greyhound thriving—make sure your vet has the most accurate and current blood values. 🐾❤️

GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE! Irene has had her procedure and she is doing GREYT so far! (Irene - shown here on her way to the procedure at the top and below that waking up post-op, and maybe it’s just us but we can see that special sparkle back in her eyes already. ✨) She will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and then this young lady will be bubble-wrapped for the next two weeks, so she still has a long road ahead of her, but we had to share this wonderful news with the because you helped make it happen!

Stay tuned for more Irene updates – thanks, friends!

Hi, everyone!

It looks like you are all gathered here because you're looking for an update on Irene! Well, we have a short one for you! Hey, wait, that's Irene in the middle!

You might be really happy to know that we have scheduled Irene's surgery for the first week of August! It can't come soon enough! Thanks to our greyhound family, we have raised enough money to cover her surgery AND her past 2 cardiology visits! We want to thank you all so much! Now we're not done yet because she'll still need some aftercare. There will be at least 2 follow-ups with the cardiologist. It's also important to note that at this time we are able to go with the "least invasive" surgery option, but if they find that the PDA is too big, it's possible they will have to make a bigger incision. We are crossing all our fingers and paws that they won't have to do that.

Please consider donating to her care! We couldn't do it without you.

Love, Team Irene

If you've been worried about little Irene and her ears, join the club.

Irene recently had her second visit with the cardiologist. This time, they looked at her heart to figure out the action plan for the surgery. We also got some answers as to what is actually happening with her heart. Basically, a blood vessel that usually closes after puppies are born didn't close on Irene's heart. This has led to extra blood flow on the left side of the heart, which can lead to congestive heart failure. Thankfully, she's only 2 years old, so the cardiologist is optimistic that the damage to the heart muscle may be reversible. We are so hopeful we can get this girl happy and healthy!

We scheduled the surgery for ASAP! The cardiologist has estimated the procedure will cost $6,000 to $7,000. Thanks to all of you, we have already covered the first cardiologist visit. THANK YOU!! It takes a village to do anything and we are so thankful for everyone who has contributed so far!

A SPECIAL THANKS goes out to Irene's foster family, who keep such a watchful eye on her so she stays quiet and cool.

Please contribute to her care to help Irene get the surgery she needs! There are 3 ways you can help:
1) Go to greyhoundsonly.com and click the donate link. You can use PayPal or a credit card. Note "Irene" in the comments.

Meet Irene! Just look at those ears! Irene is a speedy greyhound who ran 88 races. She loves all humans big and small and gives kisses whenever she can. She loves to lean on you for pets and does a deep sigh when you rub her ears. She's just like other greyhounds except for one thing.

Irene has a serious congenital heart defect called PDA. She'll need surgery. We knew something was off, so we sent her to the cardiologist, where they ran some tests and gave us a diagnosis. She'll see another cardiologist soon, where they will do an x-ray under sedation to determine the damage that needs to be repaired. They will schedule the surgery for July. She needs this surgery to survive. Her prognosis is good and, hopefully, she will live a normal life! Irene is staying with a foster family who is helping get her to her appointments, keeping her quiet (no running), and cool (it's hot outside).

Irene's first appointment cost nearly $1,000. Her second appointment is coming up, and we will have expenses from her surgery. We are starting a fundraiser to keep this sweet girl healthy. Please consider donating to her care!

Reminder! The 8th Annual Greyhounds on the Patio is this Saturday!

If there is one thing I know about Greyhounds on the Patio attendees and supporters, they know how to turn lemons into lemonade! We have stood in the pouring rain and scorching heat, and nothing stops us!

As previous attendees know, our event is so popular that we typically take over the majority of the parking lot at Pollyanna. Due to some local rule changes, this year at the 8th Annual Greyhounds on the Patio event, we are unfortunately unable to use the entire space we are accustomed to. We will still have a good amount of space, just not quite as much as we have enjoyed in the past.

However, directly across the street is a comfy grassy area that we are allowed to use! So, if it gets a little too crowded on the patio, please feel free to bring lawn chairs, blanket, dog water bowls, and relax on the green space available, while enjoying time with friends, hounds, and a refreshing beverage! It’s just a short hop, skip, and a jump away (right across the street..complete with crosswalk!) from the brewery, and we will make sure you don’t miss out on any of the fun! We will have a roving 50/50 ticket seller and will let you know far in advance that the Raise Your Beer Live Auction is starting!

Thanks in advance for your flexibility and commitment to making this a successful and (most importantly) FUN event benefiting Greyhounds Only!

🐾 Meet adoptable boy Freddy FKA Headline News, the easy-going greyhound who is just happy to be wherever he is! 🐾

This nearly 3-year-old boy is so very ready to find his forever home. Despite a past fracture in his right front leg, Freddy is as lively and lovable as ever. He'll need a home with minimal stairs and shorter walks, but he'll thrive in a space with a cozy yard to explore at his own pace.

Freddy is a laid-back guy who is perfectly fine being around children and crowds. While he's easy to walk, he may be a bit strong for small children. Nevertheless, he's a social butterfly and would make a wonderful addition to any family seeking a loyal companion.

This handsome boy also gets along swimmingly with other medium to large dogs. However, Freddy has a high prey drive and will not be able to be around cats and small dogs - he needs a home without them.

If you're ready to welcome Freddy into your heart and home, please submit an adoption application by visiting http://www.greyhoundsonly.com/hounds/adoption/adoption-application today. Let's make Freddy's dreams of a forever family a reality!

Meet adoptable boy Rocky FKA Moyola Seamrog! (BTW - Is that the most epic former name in history? It may be.)

This five-year-old big-ol’-honkin’ good boy is any adopter's dream in SO many ways! Greyhounds have a reputation for being “cat-like” or “aloof” (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing per se) – but that is NOT Rocky! He soaks in any attention and cannot get enough of being fawned over and made a fuss of. But despite his energetic confidence, he is a good listener who is easy to control on a leash!

Rocky is the epitome of easy-going and fun. His energy is contagious, and he'd thrive in a family environment with children of a responsible age who can match his playful spirit. His weird gait adds to his unique charm, and while it may seem unusual, rest assured, it causes him no discomfort. That said, we err on the side of caution, so living in a three-story walk-up would not be a good fit for this big boy. His natural self-assurance makes him a curious boy who is always interested in everything, so a house with a yard where he could explore (while not required) would please him to no end!

🚫 **Special Note: Nobody is Perfect** Due to his incredibly strong prey drive, Rocky cannot be placed in households with small animals, including cats and small dogs. He's a loyal and loving companion who would be fine as a solo pup or in a home with medium-sized or other large dogs, but if it’s small like prey and it moves like prey – keep it far, FAR away from Rocky!

Rocky is a CHAMP – he is a wonderful hound who isn’t reactive or nervous or overbearing – he has the kind of attitude we should all aspire to have towards life (perhaps not towards small critters, but you know, life in general). Any family would be lucky to have this darling boy become a part of their lives!

Ready to act now and make the best decision you have ever made? Visit http://www.greyhoundsonly.com/hounds/adoption/adoption-application to fill out an adoption application and give Rocky the forever home he so desperately deserves!

**Chippy has been ADOPTED!**

🐾 Meet the Champion of Chill, the King of Charisma, the Highly-Renowned Hound: Chippy! 🐾

Looking for a playful companion who's as sweet as can be? Look no further than Chippy (FKA Isthatthelot)! This two-year-old happy-go-lucky boy loves nothing more than playing with his toys and exploring the great outdoors. He's an absolute breeze to walk on a leash and finds everything going on around him fascinating, especially when squirrels are involved!

Chippy's foster family describes him as easy to be around with a soft, gentle personality. He's been getting along famously with their other hounds, showing no signs of aggression whatsoever. Plus, he's already mastered most of the stairs in his foster home, only ever had one (nervous) accident, and now seems to understand the backyard is where he should be doing his business. He has not been cat-tested yet, but he has encountered small dogs on walks and doesn’t pay them much attention.

It's important to note that Chippy is not a fan of the crate. He loves being with his humans and doesn't do as well alone for very long (separation anxiety – the struggle is real, folks). If you're someone who's home often and enjoys spending quality time with a furry friend, Chippy might just be the hound that will make your house a home!

While he may have had a rough start adjusting to his new surroundings (a couple of nervous tummy moments), Chippy is now thriving on a diet of Purina Pro Plan for sensitive stomachs. He's a friendly pup with no known dislikes, happy and energetic – he’s the kind of guy who will thrive practically anywhere.

Who isn’t looking for a sweet, loyal companion who's always up for an adventure? Visit our website and fill out an adoption application at http://www.greyhoundsonly.com/hounds/adoption/adoption-application if you think Chippy is the chap for you!

HOW do we still have this little lady with us? Twilight - more like DELIGHT! She is a doll and right now just waiting to find her forever home... could it be with you? Make this month extra special by granting this sweet girl's wish of finding a family of her very own!

🌟 Meet Twilight! 🌟 Ready to add some sparkle to your life? Meet Twilight, the furry comet ready to orbit her way into your heart and light up your world! 🌌🐾

🐶 **Personality**: Twilight is a loving and excitable sweetheart who craves attention and affection. She's bursting with energy and curiosity, always ready for an adventure or a play session with her favorite toys. Despite her hyperactive nature, she's also incredibly clingy and will follow you around everywhere, eager to be by your side.

🍗 **Food & Treats**: This girl is super food-motivated, but she's been working on overcoming some food-related issues. With a consistent routine, she's improving every day and becoming more comfortable with sharing. She may need a bit of patience and understanding in this area.

🏡 **Home Life**: Twilight is fearless and adaptable, but she thrives best in a household where she can be the center of attention. While she enjoys the company of other dogs, she prefers to be the star of the show and may do best in a home with fewer animals.

👩‍👩‍👧‍👦 **Experience Needed**: Twilight would benefit from an experienced adopter who can provide her with the guidance and support she needs, especially in managing her prey drive and food-related behaviors.

🚶 **Walking & Leash Behavior**: Twilight walks well on a leash and has a curious nature, but she may need some guidance to stay focused during walks.

🐱 **Cat Tolerance**: Unfortunately, Twilight does not get along with cats due to her extremely high prey drive. She has shown aggression towards them and other small animals in the past.

🏠 **Housebroken**: Twilight is making progress with house training and is learning to signal when she needs to go out. With a consistent schedule, accidents have become rare.

If you're ready to welcome this playful and affectionate girl into your life, fill out an adoption application at http://www.greyhoundsonly.com/hounds/adoption/adoption-application today!
