Greyhound-Borzoi Puppies
When a central valley breeder was shut down, he had three litters of greyhound/borzoi cross puppies. GFFL now has two of these litters. Four boys, born at the end of March, will be ready for adoption the week of June 22nd. Another litter, including 2 boys and 2 girls, will be ready for adoption in early July.
Sighthound Mixes in Auburn
On Wednesday, April 29, Shana received an email from a breeder in the Red Bluff area. She requested our help in placing 
approximately 35 sighthound mixes, including 23 puppies one year or younger, and 12 adults.
Because of their longer fur, these dogs were used to living outside. Fortunate for us, because our indoor kennel is full of greyhounds! The sighthound mixes are being housed in the outdoor pens and, thanks to Big Dog Rescue in Penngrove, CA for the loan of some additional outdoor pens, we now have plenty of protected kennels for them.
Needless to say, our human and financial resources are spread quite thin. Caring for 18 foster greyhounds was already a handful, but picking up poop and preparing food for an additional 35 dogs is staggering! The dogs are safe and comfortable, but any volunteers that can come to Auburn to help during turnouts will be greatly appreciated!
We will be carefully adopting these sighthound mixes into appropriate homes and transferring others to rescue groups who are prepared to do some socialization and leash work with these dogs. We want to ensure that these dogs have a 'Happily Ever After', even if it takes some time.
For further information about these dogs, please contact Shana at foothillfosters@yahoo.com or Barbara at bajudson@gmail.com or 510-525-3844.
