Cal the Greyhound - Looking for a Long Term Commitment

In 2008, the Greyhound Project produced a series of public service announcements to promote greyhound adoption. One of the spots, seen here, featured a black greyhound named Cal who was looking for a long term commitment. Fortunately for Cal, he was adopted soon after filming. But there are thousands more pleasant and adorable greyhound just like him waiting in adoption groups around the world for their forever homes. For more information about greyhounds and where to find an adoption group near you, please visit The Greyhound Project at www.adopt-a-greyhound.org.

@ilovethemusic - there are several adoption groups in different parts of England. You can find a list on the Greyhound Project's website, and several of the groups maintain a presence on Facebook as well.

We just adopted our girl on Saturday! Miss Sparky Kaboom is a gorgeous 10-year-old brindle girl who loves to snooze and snuggle : ) Our two cats Sai and Rasputin are co-existing well with her, though they remain cautiously curious about our new "horse", lol.

Five stars!.... I have a retired greyhound and the first thing she did when I got her home was jump on the sofa.

I adopted my girl Ginger a little over 5 years ago, and if I could I'd have 20 of them. She loves to cuddle, and is spoiled rotten. She has a cat...Scrappy.

Well, picking up my retired track greyhound's sister this morning...She ran about 11 months longer than he did...What can I say, there great dogs.

Thanks :) It was really helpful when I was doing research on adopting to see videos of how Greyhounds behaved with other pets and people, and to just see their mannerisms in general. I wanted to add to that helpful bunch of material on the web so hopefully others will be encouraged to adopt too!

Love your videos, as well.  :)

THIS is what I call a cat friendly greyhound!! I love this video. My greyhound, Duke, cohabits nicely with our cat but I wouldn't call them friends. The greyhound in this video is outstanding. I see this was posted in 2010 and I hope they are all still healthy and doing well.
