Don't forget water & blankets for your pups.

The Rules ...
sorry to poop on the party, but we gotta obey the following guidelines.

We apologize, but this is a greyhound only event (well socialized medium to large breeds are ok). If you cannot leave your small canine companions at home, please check with us to see what arrangements can be made.

We ask that you remember to bring supplies to clean up after your pup, and use them!

Please be mindful of the weather, our dogs can easily get overheated on a hot day bring along a squirt bottle to mist them and some water for them to drink. 

If your hound is aggressive towards other attending pups, you will be asked to muzzle your dog. This will keep everyone safe and happy.

All hounds MUST be on lead at all times, or in an x-pen type enclosure.

Please plan on having a wonderful time!
