To the Attendees & Friends of Hounds of The World~Solvang:

We regret to inform you that Greyhounds Make Great Pets will no longer be sponsoring and running our Hounds of The World gathering in Solvang.

Our decision was made after much soul searching and is due to the cost of the venue, the inability to find a comparable dog friendly, reasonably priced indoor facility, and the lack of vendors interested in coming to our annual event. GMGP is not an adoption organization and as such has no core volunteers willing to assist with the event nor have we been able to find an adoption group willing to take on the time & expense of the gathering in Solvang on top of the fundraisers they currently hold.

Rory & I would like to give a heart felt “thank you” to the amazing Dana Provost who has volunteered to keep the greyhounds gathering in Solvang since 2005. A remarkable vendor coordinator as well as vendor, in addition to being one of nicest people we know, Dana has always been there for the hounds.

We will truly miss the friendships that were made in Solvang over the years and the wonderful attendees who we looked forward to seeing each February.
Most of all, we will forever hold the many, many Solvang hounds in our hearts because they are the true reason that we all came together.
