GREYHOUNDS OF THE VERDE VALLEY, INC.
GREYT Available Dogs...
Jack talks to potential adopters at an event.
Won't you give Jack or one of these other 'greyt' dogs a well deserved retirement?
Start the Adoption or Foster process by filling out an APPLICATION (pdf) / APPLICATION (MS Word) . We'll get in touch and match you with a greyhound that fits your needs best. The GVV adoption fee of $225 helps to cover a portion of the costs to rescue a single greyhound. The dogs below are needing a forever home to call their own! Won't you put "Adopted" after one of their names?
Can't adopt? Consider sponsoring one of our adoptable dogs and giving them the 'home' comforts they need until their forever family comes along. Every dollar you donate goes to helping the hounds.
Adoption Pending Jack was quite the racer (with a terrible racing name), but now he is waiting patiently for a new forever home. Jack doesn't like the noise and crowds at adoption events, but he is a wonderful dog at home. He is well mannered and a fast learner and just turned 4 yrs old (born 8/1/2007)and would prefer a home without cats. Won't you give this guy a place to rest his weary head? 
Gable Lacy is a darling, petite brindle girl who isn't too happy in a condo with no place to play. She is friendly and outgoing and a real charmer, but her Mom took a new job with longer hours and doesn't have time to exercise Lacy. She is 2 1/2 yrs old and wants a loving home.
Clever My Man is a three and a half year old very handsome white and light fawn boy who had little interest in racing. Retirement is surely his game. What a fun boy. He does the loudest combo yawn-squeak we've ever heard. Long and lanky, My Man is outgoing, sweet and affectionate. He gets along great with other greyhounds in his foster home. He won't be living with cats, small animals or non-greyhound breeds of dog in his forever home. My Man is being fostered in the Phoenix area.
Dewey (medical hold for 30 days) is a handsome fawn boy with black mask and great eyes. He turned 3 on New Year’s Day and is outgoing, curious, intelligent, and affectionate – he gives kisses – what a guy! Just out of the track kennel, Dewey is soaking up life in his foster home. One of Dewey's toes on his left front foot was injured but it’s not stopping him one bit. He is getting along well with other greyhounds in his foster home, but no cats or small animals in his future home. Dewey is being fostered in the Phoenix area.
Mulberry Tiki is a beautiful tiny girl who will turn 2 this month. She is black with a white chin and blaze, white on her feet and tip of her nose and tail. She is very friendly, wags, wags, wags her tail, and is getting along great with the greyhounds in her foster home, however no cats or small animals for her. Tiki would like to be in a home with other dogs and is being fostered in the Phoenix area.
Manny (racing as Silly Manolis) is a dashing brindle boy who is just off the track. He is a curious, happy boy, who is sweet and a little reserved and whose full personality hasn’t come out yet. Manny is soaking up the affection that comes with retirement. He is getting along great with his foster family. Manny is not able to live with cats and small animals. Manny is being fostered in the Cottonwood area.
Copper, (racing as TNJ Cool Whip), is one handsome 2-year-old guy (born 1/3/2010) with a dark red coat and black mask. After 10 races, Copper has just come off the track and is quickly learning that retirement is fun. He is intelligent, affectionate and quiet. Copper is still quite wary of men, but is accepting food and treats from his foster dad after only 2 days. He is eager to please, very sweet and really enjoys one-to-one closeness with other greyhounds in his foster home in the Phoenix area. He will do very well in a home with another dog or dogs. 
Zoey is a tall and lanky fawn/red 2 yr old girl with a black-mask. She just came off the track and has quickly learned that dog beds are the way to go. She is friendly, quiet, intelligent, affectionate and on the lookout for something to steal from desks, counters, etc. Her inquisitiveness took her into the bathroom in her foster home, and provided an opportunity for a photo ! Zoey is being fostered in the Phoenix area. She gets along wonderfully with the greyhounds in her foster home, but cannot live with cats or small animals.
Dakota (aka Gable Drakkar) just came off the track after a short stay. He is a handsome deep fawn with a couple of adorable vertical wrinkles on his forehead. He’ll turn 2 in April, and is an easy-going, very sweet, intelligent boy, and a great car traveler. Dakota is learning quickly and thoroughly enjoys hanging out with the greyhounds in his foster home. We will update information on whether Dakota can live with cats and small animals. He is being fostered in the Phoenix area.
TNJ Chester
is a big, handsome, four and a half year-old fawn boy, with a slightly
Roman nose. At 73 lbs, Chester still has some filling out to do. He is
very friendly and affectionate, gives tiny kisses, is great with the
greyhounds in his foster home. Chester has the potential to become a
service or therapy dog as we his comfortable walking beside a wheelchair
and is likes new people. He would be better off in a home with other animals or a stay at home person. He does tolerate cats and small animals. 
Mulberry Iris
is a beautiful three and a half year old deep red fawn girl. Her coat
is bunny soft with a slight black overlay. Iris is outgoing and friendly, very smart and a cuddler. She is house trained, great with children and might be okay with medium size dogs.

Greyhounds are known as a fast racing dogs. They are sighthounds and are very eager to "chase" many objects they see when out for a walk. Don't let this concern you, as they will walk very nicely beside you and enjoy being your companion on the walk. These very social dogs enjoy being near you and accompanying you in your daily tasks. What do they do when not outside walking or playing in the yard? They LOVE to adorn your home on a dog bed, sofa, bed, or wherever you allow your greyhound.
