IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM HAPPY HOUNDZ HOME: As of June 2013, we will not be accepting any new clients UNLESS by referral and will start limiting our clientele.
We are already heavily booked for July and August 2013. To avoid disappointment, please contact us as soon as possible if you think you may need our services in those months.
Your greyhound deserves to feel at home, even when you're not
We know that it's hard to leave your greyhound when you go away, and that you hate the thought of a cold, impersonal setting or people who aren't familiar with the special needs of retired racing greyhounds.
We are Tina and Eric Kelly, and we feel the same way. So we decided to offer a greyhound sitting service to provide a home-like setting for other greyhound owners.
"Off leash" rule: Here at Happy Houndz we take your greyhounds and your adoption contract extremely seriously. As such, we do not condone greyhounds being "off leash" in any setting other than a fully-secured, enclosed area. This also includes travelling between your vehicle and our home when you drop off and pick up your greyhound. Thank you for following our request as we support our local greyhound adoption groups and their adoption agreements.
