Dusty's friends
Dusty asked me to introduce you to some of the friends she's made in South Florida. Please pay them a visit and let them know she sent you.
Friends of Greyhounds: Jerry Deitch and Michelle Weaver incorporated the non-profit Friends of Greyhounds in 2001 and have found homes for thousands of retired racers since. FoG used to operate out of Florida Kennels in Hialeah, caring for hundreds of greyhounds as the official adoption group of the Hollywood and Flagler dog tracks. Jerry and Michelle downsized a few years ago to Sunrise, where they board a few dogs at a time as an independent operation. The FoG website is massive, a great resource for greyhound families and prospective adopters.
Animal Hospital of University Drive: AHUD is a locally owned, independent veterinary practice that specializes in greyhound treatment. The practice has been in operation since 1979 and under current ownership since 2008. Dusty has had all her non-surgical treatment there since her retirement, including a couple of visits with Dr. Carl Ansara since she came to live with me. The staff is friendly and helpful, and Dr. Ansara is easy to talk with and answers questions directly and cheerfully.
