animals, dogs, charity

Greyhound Friends’ Annual Fall Open House will take place from noon to 4 p.m. on September 17th & 18th at 167 Saddle Hill Road in Hopkinton. The event provides animal lovers with the opportunity to meet adopted greyhounds and their owners, as well as greyhounds available for adoption at Greyhound Friends. Dogs can participate in the Not Quite Westminster Dog Show and take part in the radar-timed speed run. The event will also feature a silent auction and raffle, lots of shopping for greyhound goodies (for both hounds and humans), New Memorial Bricks dedication and a parade of adoptable dogs.

Greyhound Friends depend on the kindness of supporters and anyone interested in greyhound & hound welfare. Attendees are welcome to bring donations of dog food, rawhides, blankets for bedding, and bird food for our bird friends. Financial donations are also appreciated and needed. Greyhound Friends is a 501(c)3 charitable organization and donations are tax deductible. Please call 508-435-5969 or visit www.greyhound.org for more information.
