This is tomorrow!!

Yes, the weather is less than optimal. And YES, we'll still be there! This is one of those events that is rain-or-shine. It's a great opportunity to show off your hound's raincoat :) (although I believe the rain will hold off)

REMINDER!!!!

The Great Global Greyhound Walk-Northeast Ohio 2024 will be next Sunday 9/29/2024 at 9:45 am! Same location as in past years.

Here at the HH, we're finishing up our 2024 bookings before we sail into our temporary '25 retirement. I find it so fitting that we hosted one of our very first guests here again this month. Back in July 2019 two boys named Jedi and Jango stayed for a week. Well, Jango was back, here in August 2024, for another week, at 14 years old. His brother Jedi passed away last year, so we were extra thankful to have this special guy stay with us again.
I can't think of a better guest than Jango to wrap up 2024 with. 💜

There's no easy way to say this, so we'll just say it- the hounds have decided to retire at the end of this year.
If you have reservations or a meet and greet scheduled, no fear! Of course we're honoring everyone we currently have on our calendar. We just won't be taking any new requests until further notice.
We can't thank everyone enough for what we've built here. We loved on so many hounds... while it was hard work, it was so very worthwhile and rewarding. And we got to know so many wonderful people too! For all that, we give you all a giant, heartfelt THANK YOU.
We will be back in the future, and when we know when for sure, this page will be the first to be updated.
For now, give all your hounds a hug from us. We'll talk to you again soon!

Poppy is a beautiful Irish girl with a ton of personality. She is everywhere you go, and will try going through any doorway before you 😄 She is curious and fearless. She earned the nickname Pop-Star here!

We had another visit from Clancy and Mercury! These 2 boys entertained us each day of their 4 night stay.
Each stay brings more and more personality from our visiting hounds, and this time we saw Mercury blossom!

EDIT 3: Sweet Erie has returned to her foster home. Her first potential home didn't work out, through no fault of her own.
If you were thinking about adopting her, this may be the universe giving you a little nudge. She is available again, and ready to find her forever home.

UPDATE 2: Erie is settling in at her new home, with her 2 older greyhound siblings. We wish her and her new family the very best 💜

UPDATE: Erie's adoption is pending!

The HoundHouse has a very special announcement!

Meet Erie! She's being fostered by friends of ours. She is a loveable 9 year old who came to them, sadly, due to failing health of her owners. She is playful, loveable and gets along great with their greyhounds (unsure if she is cat safe). If you are interested in sweet Erie, let me know, and I can put you in touch with the appropriate people. ❤️
Erie is being rehomed through the amazing Erie Shore Greyhound Adoption of Ohio.

Our (almost) greyhound friend Crosby stopped by for a few nights. Crosby is our only non-hound guest left from our days on Rover.
He's always so fun to have around!

We started the year with a week stay with Johnny! Affectionately known as Johnny Pickles here 😄 The first thing he does each morning is find the pickle stuffy, and plays with it all day.

Welcome to the Houndhouse!

Welcome! My name is Kimberly Newman and along with my husband Zach, we run the Best Little Houndhouse in Parma. Here we specialize in the particular care of greyhounds. Our home is a single level with nearly no stairs, has many slumber balls and pet beds, kiddie pools in the summer and an easily accessed fully fenced backyard for potty breaks and zoomies. We have a spare bedroom called the Star Wars room for our overnight guests, or we have 2 spare crates available if your hound prefers the comfort of a crate.

I’m a 47 year old professional engineer who works full time from home. I’m also an active volunteer for Greyhound Adoption of Ohio (since June 2018). My husband and I moved to Parma in October 2018 and chose our house partially because it was so well suited for greyhounds. The rooms are uncluttered and spacious and the atmosphere is relaxed and low anxiety. Our hounds all stay in the same room I work in. There are couches and pet beds available and plenty of room for your own hound's beds too. The patio door to the backyard is directly off this room. Hounds are always supervised and are very rarely left home alone.

I welcome meet and greets beforehand to ensure our dogs are a good fit and to ensure I'm the type of sitter you're looking for. We can meet here in our home or at a neutral location. I also understand that there are some situations where a meet and greet isn’t possible and I can definitely work with you if that’s the case. My dogs are very used to visitors at this point so welcoming a new dog without a meet and greet is very possible.

Non-greyhound breeds are also very welcome! However, because of the nature and prey drive of our greyhounds I absolutely cannot consider smaller breeds (generally under 45 pounds). My purpose is to give your dog(s) the best care possible and give you peace of mind knowing that they’re being very well taken care of and not book every dog and just “make it work”. Safety for everyone is just as important as anything else our home has to offer. If you like our home but aren’t sure if your dog(s) will get along with our 3 greyhounds, we are well suited to keep everyone apart too. We have a whole other living room off the kitchen that’s not pictured. Yes, there are many options here at the Houndhouse!
