Name Tag Experience

HAZZAH! This year was the 2nd year the retired racing greyhound adoption program had a booth at the annual Norman Medieval Fair. They were the original noble dog of the renaissance period! We made over $300 in donations and received 3 applications for adoption – what a great weekend! Please enjoy the pictures from our event! ‘

This past weekend we hosted a show & tell event at Paws Around Town in a local mall in Oklahoma City. We had a great turnout! We had almost ALL our foster dogs out at the event and they were really working the room! We made $40+ in donations and were able to educate MANY people about greyhound adoption! This was our first event to sport our new name badges & lanyards donated by Name Tag, Inc. They are SO helpful! Our volunteers were easy to recognize and our names were visible to those we spoke to. Thank you again for your dontion!

Please enjoy pictures from our event!

Hugs & Greyhound Kisses,

The HOH Gang

Hounds of the Heartland (GPA/Central Oklahoma) of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma is a non-profit humane organization dedicated to finding loving, responsible homes for both retired racing greyhounds that can no longer compete and for young greyhounds not placed on the racetrack.  Our aim is to let the public know what excellent, loving pets these noble dogs make.

Greyhounds are known for their very gentle, quiet and friendly dispositions. Since they are retired racing dogs, there is a common misconception that they would be high strung and extremely active but it is actually very much the opposite. At our events they typically lie down or sleep the entire time! Greyhounds typically do not bark or shed and they are wonderful with children.
