JoJo initially came to us as an 8 month old pup straight from a farm in Arkansas. She was the runt of the litter and only weighed 47lbs when we got her. They decided she was too small to race, so sent her to us to place in an adoptive home instead. Her new family picked out the name Joanna Nadine and called her Jojo since she was never registered and never got a racing name. Jojo was just a little overwhelmed by her big adventure across several states as a puppy. She did really well with everything new, she would approach everything new to sniff rather than shying away. She walked pretty well on leash and was pretty calm for a puppy. Although she is not registered, she does have tattoos. Her right tattoo is 59C but her left tattoo is hard to read 73658. The last 2 numbers are really faint. Her birthday is 5/27/19 and her sire is Superior Panama and her dam is AMF Slammed Shut. Jo Jo has been with the Chatham family of NC since 3/24/20 and is nearly 5 now. She is available again for adoption because her owner is having health problems and is unable to care for her. She is being returned with another 9 year old greyhound named Skye that was also adopted as a young puppy. We are hoping to find a home for them together. Jojo did not live with small dogs cats or kids but she did well in her testing with them. Be sure to look at her other photos to see some cute ones of her as a puppy.

Adoption Status: Adopted by the Johns Family of Clermont GA 4/1/24

Skye was initially adopted from another group as a small puppy. We have been asked to help rehome her due to her owner being unable to physically care for her anymore. Sky has been in a home in NC for nearly nine years. She was born on 3/25/2015. She was from an accidental litter. Her mom is RCK Raven who has her own Facebook Page: Raven's New Adventure. Her sire is RCK Rambo. Since she was from an accidental litter she never got ear tattoos. Her former mom did a lot of training with her and that she earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen when she was just 6 months old. So she knows basic obedience commands and is a very well behaved dog on leash and in public. She is being returned with another 5 year old greyhound named Jojo and we hope to find a home for both of them together. She has not lived with cats, kids or small dogs but did great on her testing with all of them. She seems to like every human and animal she meets. She is very sweet, friendly and bonds fast. She loves to get up on the couch and sit next to you. She will pat you with her paw to remind you to pet her. Be sure to look at her other photos to see cute ones of Skye as a puppy.

Racing Name:
HL's Kylie
Pet/Kennel Name:
Kylie
Age:
4.5
Color/Gender:
White Female with Black Spots and Ticking
Cat Tolerance:
No
Small Dog Tolerance:
No
Good w/ Children:
Yes
Fostered by (location):
Johnson, Greenville SC
Adoption Status: Adopted by the Spieler Family of Hendersonville NC 3/13/24

Kylie just arrived from Alabama. She is a retired racer that raced at Southland until they closed at the end of 2022. She wasn't a great racer and only won one race in her career. She raced 58 races and did place quite a few times. She is a small girl that raced at just 58lbs. She is 4 years old and won't turn 5 until September 3rd. Kylie has been in a home in Alabama since she retired from racing but they asked us for help rehoming her. Her sire is Rico's Vintage and her dam is KL's Ruth. Kylie was vetted at Emerald City Animal Hospital in Greenwood SC on 3/12/24. According to her previous owner, Kylie has a pretty high prey drive so would do best in a home with no cats or small dogs. She did not pay much attention to a small white Italian greyhound however but she may be different with small fluffy dogs that look more like bunnies or squirrels. She is a very friendly girl that wags like crazy, so hard she injured her tail the first day we had her. She loves to lay on couches and will sleep in bed with you. She bonds very fast to whoever she is with. Kylie travels well and will just get up on the seat and lay down for the trip. She is great girl!!

White Male with Brindle Spots
Cat Tolerance:
No
Small Dog Tolerance:
No
Good w/ Children:
Testing
Fostered by (location):
Aiken SC
Adoption Status: Adopted by the Lamm Family 3/9/24

Blanton is a retired show greyhound that never raced. He has been in a home since birth. He is 6 years old and is a gorgeous white and brindle male that is extra large at around 100lbs. He is retired from show life and his owner asked for our help in finding him a home.  He has been fine with other large dogs that are close to his size, male and female. He plays rough though so his owner does not think he would be good with smaller dogs or cats. He is a very friendly happy guy and wouldn't mean any harm though. Just a very sweet boy.

Eli is a black male that is a retired show dog and not a retired racer. He has been in a home is his entire life and is a friendly, happy guy. He is a very large guy with a weight in the 90s. His owner believes he would do better in a home without other dogs. He is a big boy that plays rough and can be a little pushy sometimes with other dogs. He was placed in a home with a medium sized female dog and got bitten by her when playing, so was returned. He is very friendly with people and great on leash. A really nice big boy and gorgeous.
