Promoting
the adoption of black greyhounds through their website dedicated
to Black Greyhounds, which are sometimes hard to place simply
because of their color. Too many people believe that a dog
that is black is evil or their color indicates that the dog
is vicious. Or perhaps black Greyhounds are harder to adopt
than other colors because it is such a common color. Whatever
the reason, many groups find it more difficult to find homes
for their black dogs than any other color.

Virginia, Dr. Campbell always has room for them to stay until
she can complete their medical work. Thank
you for all that you do, Dr. Campbell!

Embroidered
ID collars from Lucky Pet
|
VAGA requires
you to place an embroidered ID collar on your dog before you
take him home. This collar should never be removed except
to occasionally launder it. This collar is your greyhound's
ticket home if he gets lost. It can also be a lifesaver if
he is lost, injured, and requires medical attention from a
county shelter. They will not treat an animal they can't identify
and metal dog tags wear smooth in time and can't be read.
Order
your collar by calling 1-800-543-8247 or online at www.luckypet.com.
VAGA receives a donation when you mention you're a VAGA
adopter at the time of order or when you enter "VAGA
adopter' in the additional notes section of the online order
form.
