Meet the Greyhounds at the Marietta Farmer's Market

Come meet former racing greyhounds that have been adopted into wonderful homes in the Marietta area.Β  They have a booth next to the fire hydrant between Sugarcakes and Schillings at the weekly Saturday Marietta Farmer's Market on the Square in Marietta

Former racing Greyhounds go from being champions on the track to being CHAMPION PETS!

When you adopt a former racing Greyhound, you can expect a gentle, loving pet who, with a little time, patience, and guidance will be a great addition to your family. Although they have never seen stairs, windows, couches, and even other breeds of dogs before coming to a home, Greyhounds are very intelligent dogs and quickly learn how to live in a home environment.

Greyhounds are grateful for their new homes and reward their owners with never-ending affection. Raised with their littermates where they had to compete for affection, they thrive on being the center of attention in a home.
