#HappyTails

These guys get our happy tails a waggin’! Check out our recent successful adoptions and the stories of the amazing work our team and adoption partners have been up to lately.

Meet Alfie, this week's adoptable #WhyNotMePets highlight! 
What's not to love about this tall, dark, and handsome guy?! 
Alfie is a sweet and playful gent who loves attention. 
He is six years old, 65 pounds, and does well with other greyhounds at Greyhound Pets, Inc. , if they can match his energy level. But he is looking for a home without cats or small dogs. 

Alfie is still getting used to the world beyond kennels and racing. New situations make him a little nervous, but who can blame him? He is working on building his confidence but still prefers a quieter home with adults and a fenced yard. 
Alfie's adoption comes with four training sessions, and his adoption fee is covered by a generous sponsor.

Make a date to meet Alfie by contacting his caretakers at @greyhoundpetsinc!

Happy adoption day, Bill!
One of our #WhyNotMePets March highlights, Bill had been waiting for his people to arrive for quite some time, and that day finally arrived. His new mom and dad had a greyhound many years ago and decided that now would be the perfect time to adopt. They got their fence fixed up and visited Greyhound Pets Inc. to meet some of the adoptable pooches. 
It was pretty clear from the start that Bill was going to be the one. After one last raid of the toy chest in the adoption center they packed up and headed home. Congratulations to all!

In 2025, we celebrated our 20th anniversary and we met - and exceeded - most of our goals to increase adoptions, spay/neuter, and pet retention. This is only possible thanks to generous donations from our compassionate community, thank you! 
Our biggest expense by far is for spay/neuter, with over $100,000 spent in Yakima Valley alone last year, an area experiencing an overpopulation crisis. With little overhead, your donations go far to help the most at-risk and neediest animals in our state. 
2026 is shaping up to be a busy and impactful year, building off our success in 2025. Thank you for your support!

Introducing....Clover! 

Clover is a sweet, happy, friendly boy ready to find a forever home. He is smart and eager to learn, he is a delightful guy and playful - he loves to play fetch! 

Clover can be unsure of new people and situations, until he knows you and is comfortable with you. He would love a quieter home with a more experienced adopter to help guide him.  Clover has been nervous on walks and his caretakers at Greyhound Pets, Inc. are helping build up his confidence.  Clover has made huge progress and his adoption comes with training sessions to continue to help him grow and bond with his new people. 

Clover is being highlighted through Pawsitive Alliance’s #WhyNotMePets campaign to help him find his forever loving home.. 

To meet Clover, contact his caretakers at @greyhoundpetsinc!
(Best in a home without kids or other animals)

For the past week we've highlighted Darcy, the adorable and adoptable sweet Whippet mix who was saved from the dog meat trade.
That was two years ago, she's been healing and waiting to find that forever someone(s) to love her,  protect her, and let her joyous spirit shine through.

If you're interested in learning more about Darcy, contact her caretakers at Greyhound Pets, Inc., @greyhoundpetsinc.

Darcy was highlighted through Pawsitive Alliance's #WhyNotMePets campaign, which shines a light on adoptable cats and dogs in Washington who have been waiting years to find love.

Hmmm, do you think Orla is settling into her new home? ;-)

Orla's new family shared that she is enjoying time outside, taking walks and playing ball. And she is obviously enjoying the comforts of her new home, too!

Congrats to Orla and her new family and thank you to her caretakers at Greyhound Pets, Inc. for giving Orla her second chance at love and safety.
