Newsletter

Starting this year we will no longer mail paper copies of the newsletter to everyone. We will post it here on our website when it is completed. This will not only make it accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but will help save money that will be used for the hounds. Also, we will be able to use color pictures and more interesting graphics for your reading pleasure. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the newsletter.

Our July 2008 issue of Making Tracks is now online! Click here to read it!




Picnic

The 2008 picnic will be held at Downs Park in Pasadena, Maryland on Sunday, September 21. The park is located right next to the Chesapeake Bay and has lots of walking trails, volleyball and basketball courts, picnic tables and grills, and a playground for the younger children. It even has a dog beach where your Greyhound could go swimming. For more information about the park go to the Downs Park web page.



Don't worry about the parking fee, the dogs are picking that up for us so more folks can come out and enjoy the picnic. Please remember that this is a fund raising event for us. All the money you donate via raffles, auctions, games, and admission goes directly to the Greyhounds.








Check Us Out on Pet Finder

We have now "cross listed" all of our hounds on Pet Finder to help expedite our adoptions. Check it out!




Check Us Out on Greyhound Racing Database

We have now listed all of our hounds on Greyhound Data to spread the word about our adoption group. Greyhound Data provides information about greyhounds from all over the world with pedigree information drawn from the last four centuries.




Let Them Eat Cookies Dog Cookbook

We sold out! All 200 first-run copies of "Let Them Eat Cookies: A Greyt Cookbook for All Great Dogs". If you would like to buy a copy (or a few) directly, our publisher, Viovio, has set up a special purchasing website for Greyhound Rescue Inc.

You can click here and buy copies directly. The book will now be sold only for $35 per copy plus shipping. There is no longer a quantity discount available, that was only for pre-orders. For an additional fee, Viovio can customize your book with glossy pages or a hard cover, which are also new features. As before ALL proceeds from sales of "Let Them Eat Cookies: A Greyt Cookbook for All Great Dogs" will go directly to Greyhound Rescue Inc.

There are four chapters in this cookbook: Beastly Meals; Canine Cookies & Pupcakes; Holiday Hounds & Pooch Parties; and Special Needs Recipes. We have covered it all, from stews and suppers to even vegan, wheat-free and grain-free treats. And best of all, the recipes are all easy – some can be made in 15 minutes from beginning to end! As a special feature of the cookbook, there are also more than 75 full-color professional photographs of hounds being hounds in all their favorite places: the sofa, the beach, Meet & Greets and more!
