GreySave Hound "Romy" Gets a Statue!
 GreySave greyhound Romy, who lives on Catalina Island, was the model for an Origami sculpture (pictured at left) that will be turned into a bronze statue for Hermon Dog Park in Los Angeles. Romy will be honored at a ceremony during the park's annual Dog Days of Summer event. Romy's greyhound friends are invited too! See the Events page for a description of the Dog Days of Summer and how you can help us represent GreySave there.
Join Us at an Eco-Friendly Spa Day Near You
Saturday, July 25,
10am-2pm in Pasadena and Anaheim. Join your Greyhound friends at the GreySave Eco-Friendly Spa Day Fundraiser. Due to the water shortage, we'll be kind to the environment and not bathe dogs. But we'll be doing everything else, and adding a vigorous brushing of your grey's coat. We'll also be reducing the price. Your Greyhound will receive the royal spa treatment while you visit with some fun folks who share your passion for Greyhounds! Reserve a spot at the Anaheim or Pasadena location and get more info on the GreySave Spa Day web page.
GreySave Benefactor Walk of Fame 2008
GreySave's success rescuing and adopting out greyhounds would not be possible without over and above giving.
Unusual medical expenses, such as surgery to repair broken legs, top the expenses we incur regularly that our adoption fee is not sufficient to cover. Our 2008 Benefactor fund drive was highly successful. As a thank-you to our donors we've just posted their names of our new GreySave Benefactor Walk of Fame 2008 web page.
Check it out. We'll be starting a new campaign soon--look for your chance to see your name on the next Walk of Fame.
June Dogs
We took in 15 greyhounds on June 6. They're Chaska, Annie, Rebel, Argos, Baci, Madison, Cindy, Spenser, Silvia, Cat, Cache, Sweetboy, Steven, Thunder, and Marv. Three have broken legs from racing. Nine came from the Caliente track, the rest from various other sources. They're settling into their foster homes now. Go to the bottom of the Adoptables page to see their photos and vital statistics (their photos are also rotating above). We'll post their profiles as their personalities in the home emerge. See how their day goes from the time we get them from the track at The Last Lap.
