Available for Adoption
While it’s easy to fall for a photograph, we believe a picture can't convey the nuances of a greyhound’s personality. At GGA, we prioritize thoughtful matches based on personality, behaviours, and mutual compatibility. Our process ensures a lifelong bond between you and your new family member.
If we currently have no paw advertised as available for adoption, that doesn’t necessarily mean we don’t have any paws available for adoption.
Many of our adoptables are in evaluative foster care prior to making their 'world wide web' and social media debuts.
Judy
CET Judith, a black female whelped on April 5, 2021, established herself as a model of consistency and grit at the West Virginia racing circuit. Owned by Carl E. Tomblin II and campaigned by the prestigious CET Kennel, her lineage was a strategic blend of international stamina and local expertise. Her sire, Kiowa Myth, was a celebrated international athlete who passed down a professional demeanor and physical durability, while her dam, CET Baby Boo, was a cornerstone of the Tomblin program known for producing chasers with elite "track sense."
Throughout her career, Judith was a true specialist at Tri-State Greyhound Park, completing exactly 80 professional starts. Her tenure was defined by remarkable reliability rather than just raw speed. She recorded 9 wins, 10 seconds, 11 thirds, and 16 fourths, "hitting the board" in 57.5% of her races. This high-value consistency allowed her to ascend to Grade A, where she competed against the track’s most seasoned sprinters.
Tactically, Judith was a sophisticated "closer." Lacking explosive early-box speed, she relied on a powerful mid-race engine and a "never-quit" attitude to pick off opponents in the home straight. As a dedicated rail-runner, she was most effective in Traps 1 and 2, where she could hug the inner turns. Completing 80 starts without significant layoffs, she retired in early 2024 with a personal best of 30.44 seconds, leaving a legacy as a quintessential "working class" chaser who prioritized tactical perseverance over all else.
Bibi
Lk’s Sonic Boom, affectionately known as Bibi, was a black and white male greyhound whelped on September 1, 2017. A true homebred athlete, he was both bred and owned exclusively by Jill Lashmet. His pedigree features a strong "Lk" lineage, sired by Lk’s Now R Never out of Lk’s Whispering, a combination designed for the rigorous competition of the American racing circuit.
Bibi’s professional career took place entirely at Southland Casino Racing in West Memphis, Arkansas. Over a span of 28 professional starts, he established himself as a durable and reliable "Grader." Competing primarily within the Grade C, D, and M (Maiden) categories, he recorded a career tally of 3 wins, 5 seconds, 1 third, and 2 fourths. His personal best time on the demanding 583-yard Southland course was clocked at 32.53 seconds.
Tactically, Bibi was a mid-track closer. Statistical analysis of his racing logs shows he was rarely drawn in the inside rail positions (Traps 1 and 2), instead frequently starting from the middle-to-outside traps. He lacked explosive early-box speed, often sitting toward the back of the pack at the first turn. However, he was a persistent "grinder" with a strong mid-race engine, methodically picking off opponents in the backstretch to secure his high frequency of second-place finishes. Bibi retired in October 2020, leaving the track as a respected, consistent performer for the Lester Raines Kennel.
Milo
Thrilling Milo is a black male greyhound, whelped on November 17, 2018. Bred by the prolific G. E. Harding for the Thrilling Syndicate, he represents an elite genetic cross between the legendary Australian sire Barcia Bale and the proven producer Thrilling Flo. This pedigree combined world-class power with the tactical intelligence required for the competitive New Zealand circuit.
His 2021 racing campaign was a high-impact display of versatility and durability. Milo moved rapidly through the grades, transitioning from C0 (Maiden) status in January to elite C5 (Open Class) competition by June. Across 30 professional starts, he secured 6 wins, 10 seconds, and 3 thirds, maintaining a 63% podium rate and amassing over $19,000 in stake money. He was a specialist at both the 375m sprints at Cambridge and the 527m middle-distance events at Manukau.
Tactically, Milo was an explosive front-runner. His racing lines frequently showed him leading from start to finish, particularly when drawn in Trap 1, where he utilized the rail to dominate his rivals. His best performances included a dominant victory in the C1 Final at Cambridge and several "box-to-wire" wins at Manukau. Even as he faced top-tier opponents like Zipping Barty and Thrilling Watson, his tenacity earned him ten runner-up finishes. He retired as a respected C5 champion, embodying the elite speed and consistency of his "Thrilling" heritage.
