GLS Bandana "Amber"

 

1-30-2012  Update from Foster Mom:

Amber is  easy to get along with and loves the other dogs. She and my girl, Nellie, had a couple of wild play times but calmed down quick. They were throwing stuffed animals in the air and chasing each other.
She eats very nice. Not demanding at all.
She was easy to house train since she  immediately began to use the dog door.

This handsome and sweet boy is still on the look out for a home to call his own.  Jed loves attention, running in the yard with his greyhound sisters, a good meal that foster dad has prepared and getting into mischief with the ladies of the house.  With all the love Jed has to give he will make a wonderful companion to that perfect family that is waiting to call him their own.

It’s been a busy summer at Wheeling with some ground-breaking off-track developments.

Wheeling Island Racetrack and The Ohio State University have formed a joint venture targeting the wellness of greyhounds.

The partnership is two-fold – first to improve the health status of racing greyhounds through an investigative study, and secondly to significantly decrease or eliminate euthanasia due to catastrophic the program from The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, Dr. Lori L. Bohenko, West Virginia Racing Commission state veterinarian, played a major role in launching the undertaking at the Wheeling racetrack.
