Since Greyhounds Unlimited is a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization with no paid staff, support in a variety of areas is a constant need. One of our most critical is the need for foster homes to help prepare a greyhound for their forever home. Perhaps you would like to volunteer to help washing, walking and spending some one-on-one time with the greyhounds in the foster kennel the first Saturday of each month; or help in a monetary way by donating a vehicle, committing to the senior and special needs food/care fund, or sponsoring the website for a month.

Other levels of support are listed below and we hope you will consider helping in whatever way you can. Cash donations are always welcome, and 100% of all donations support the ongoing needs of the greyhounds in GU's care. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation in any amount, please mail your check to:

Greyhounds Unlimited
P.O. Box 703967
Dallas, TX  75370-3967

Any and all support you give is greytly appreciated, especially by the hounds.

PRO PLAN-4-PUPS CLUB

It's easy to help - just clip the weight circles from Pro Plan or any Purina Pet Food and mail them to:

Greyhounds Unlimited
P-4-P Club
P.O. Box 703967
Dallas, TX  75370-3967

GU will collect and submit (it takes 250 pounds worth of weight circles each time) them to Purina for a rebate check good for Pro Plan dog food. It is a way your family of hounds, and cats, can help all their greyhound friends who have not yet found their forever homes.

KROGER CARDS AND TOM THUMB REWARD CARDS

Kroger and Tom Thumb will donate a percentage of all purchases made when you use your Kroger or Tom Thumb Reward Cards. Your Tom Thumb Reward Card can be automatically linked to GU by simply giving the cashier GU's Good Neighbor Number - 2743. Kroger provides a "Customer Letter" with a barcode specific to Greyhounds Unlimited. You will need to print-out the Customer Letter and take it to your Kroger store to get GU linked to your KrogerPlus Card.

The amount of your purchases at Tom Thumb and Kroger will register to our account, and a percentage of this total is sent to GU periodically.

If you have any questions regarding linking your Kroger or Tom Thumb Reward Cards to GU, please call 972 503-GREY (4739) or email info@greyhoundsunlimited.org. It costs you nothing, and it's a greyt way to help the hounds in our care.

VENUS

Venus

Venus, my sweet girl. . .
You came into my life on January 18, 1998. What a pistol you were. . .no manners and into everything! So beautiful and sleek, full of boundless energy and loving your new life. You were always so happy to welcome guests in, and if your playful charge didn't knock them down, your long wagging tail would! You would go into the den every night at 11 and SPIN!!! When you exhausted yourself in one direction, you stopped to catch your breath and starting spinning in the other direction. What a silly girl! You were always content to sleep on the couch through hours of music lessons. Forever afraid of the leash, walks, and trips in the car. . .I know you were just happy to be the "Queen" of your house and your own yard.

Venus, you were there for me through some difficult times. . .you were my loyal companion, friend, and my "never pushy" beddie buddy. I love you, my precious girl, and I miss you so much. Little Ray misses you, as do all of your boys. They love you, too.

You never complained or cried. I know you were ready much sooner than I could bear to let you go. On June 3, 2006, as I held you in my arms, I know you crossed the Rainbow Bridge peacefully and thankfully. It makes me happy to know that you are there romping happily with Murphy.

It is with much gratitude that I write this in your honor, my Venus. You brought so much pleasure, love, joy, and humor into my life. I will remember the good times, but I will always love and miss you.

With much love,
Mom
