I've had 5 retired racers over the years. My current girl, Peaches, is 12 this year. They're a breed like no other. Peaches was considered "special needs" at the adoption kennel due her her extreme shyness. She'd been overlooked for months and months after retirement because she didn't want to make eye contact and the kennel wondered if she was going to be adoptable. I'd just lost my 12 year old greyhound to kidney disease, so I was looking for another. It broke my heart that she was so fearful and shy so I took her outside on a leash and spent about an hour with her and then ended up bringing her home. The adoption coordinator cried when I signed the adoption contract because she'd been passed by over and over by people looking for a dog with a bubbly outgoing personality. She loves and trusts me now, of course, but she's still very shy and doesn't trust any else. That's ok. I've got her back. ♥

I really wish greyhound racing would stop. Thank god lovely people rescue these animals 💚

She's an awesome dog I love how she runs and jumps and plays just like a little kid😊❤

That snore was EVERYTHING ❤❤❤❤

She gets the zoomies, which is incredibly cute.

Sabrina is precious and we are so happy you adopted her. You are a goddess.

She is wonderful. She just exudes joy. Life is not a gift. It's a loan. Sooner or later we are called back home. When we lose a cherished companion it hurts. But as we see here the best way to soothe the wound is to make a new connection with someone in need, someone who can give so much in return. It's a gift to the memory of those who have gone.

What a wonderful being!!! Both of you !!!! Love this so much❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your first few words hit me hard. I lost my 3 elderly dogs (14,15 & 20!) within a year. I’m glad we both have found an animal to mend our hearts…❤️‍🩹

What a Beautiful Story of love and understanding ❤

Watching Sabrina running in circles outside, it looks like she got into somebody's ENERGY drinks. Or maybe the video switched to fast forward!

What a great story that you both have. You rescued her, and she rescued you right back. I wish you many happy days together!

This is so heartwarming!!! 😙 Greyhound racing is not as popular as it once was but needs to be stopped entirely!!!! 😠 This angel and this woman were absolutely meant for each other!!! 🖒 Look at that beautiful face!!! Who wouldn't want to wake up to all that happiness!! 🐶🤗 May you have many wonderful years of love and happiness together!!! 🙏💕

Just goes to show by her smile that she is one happy baby! ❤❤❤ 🥰😍

She is absolutely beautiful. Love her. She is amazing. Thanks for saving her she is a lover, not a race dog.❤ Greyhound dogs are amazing dogs they are ki d loving. I had one mixed with Labrador he was funny. He would roll up to the smallest ball to sleep between my legs. I miss that feeling.❤❤

What a happy happy girl!! Her tail is like a propeller!❤

You were destined to be her mom. ❤

Beautiful girl. Love her personality. So glad she found an appreciative, smart, tuned-in Mom. Lovely story. -Wishing many vibrant years ahead.

A sweet dog with a lovely lady. Perfect!

Such a beautiful dog. Some humans still don't understand the true lessons of Love, respect and joy animals give. Be happy, you are blessed to have her in your life. ❤❤ ps I adore her snoring 😊

OMG, she's a little crazy, but I LOVE her ! Love that smile, she is a DOLL ! The old who saved who, she is full of personality, she's funny, goofy, and sweet! 👍👍👍😊❤

So sweet! What a love bug 🥰

My greyhound Jordan saved my life. He's the most perfect noodle-nose derpy sleepy roachy snack-loving boy anyone could ask for. I love him with all of my heart and soul. They really are special dogs.

Now she is wanted😁

YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN ❤️ THANK YOU FOR SHARING ☺️

what a soul to soul connection. So wonderful for you both

I had to watch the vid twice! Sabrina is just the sweetest derpy looking goofball, and such an intelligent girl, and clearly SO HAPPY! Love all the sighthounds for their antics! You really hit the jackpot, and so did Sabrina who was given such a loving mom! ❤

"A quiet friend...". That might be the perfect description for the pups I've owned. It's also what I've always known I needed.😊😊😊 People, for some of us, simply don't fill that particular void...

Beautiful, happy, loving and kind ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ lovely for her

These dogs are so very sweet and sensitive and I was shocked how they enjoy in house time as well as some exercise, of course, but not as much as I would have thought. Very special personalites. Thank you for adopting this sweetie.

Sabrina is so cute 🥰 ❤❤❤

Dogs are so full of love and kindness.😊

What a beautiful gal ❤❤❤

I laughed right out loud from her antics. What a character. Thanks for letter her adopt you.

She is so gorgeous. I love the greyhounds. Thank you for giving her a great life. ❤❤❤❤

GOD BLESS these people for adopting these beautiful animals!!

This little lady has the most gorgeous and expressive eyes. She is truly a princess and she came to you in a time when you both needed each other. Wishing you the best and happiest years to come.

The tragedy is not that they pass before us. The tragedy is if they hadn’t been in your life, including this one! Love them as much as you can, as long as you can. They are waiting for you at the pearly gates.

What a beauty. Wishing her and her family a very happy life together.❤

Thank you kind human beings for adopting her and sorry for your losses

That face! 🥰 I can't stop smiling.

Thank you for giving this beautiful dog a home! xo

She’s absolutely precious ❤❤❤

You have been blessed. Greyts are so special. They are gentle, devoted, and sometimes crazy couch potatoes. I've had 7 rescues, and 4 Italian Greyhounds. There is nothing like a greyhound. I wish you much love with your greyt greyhound.

It's heartbreaking that we continue to use animals for cruel things like racing. Animals are not entertainment. They are not things. They are emotional, social beings, deserving of safety and love.

She is gorgeous. I’ve been saved by my neighbours greyhound, so glad they let me have him for weekend walks and stay overs. He’s sublime, so gentle, loving and just lifts me up from my mild depression. So glad I’m alive!😊

She’s your therapy dog! She’s priceless!! So glad you have each other!! Just beautiful!!

That girl with her purple shower cap is everything! Too funny. You look like you have so much fun together! Glad you found each other!

She really is beautiful (natural black liner around her eyes), besides her lovely personality and pure love of life now that she has you in it! Thank you for sharing.

That's why they say : 'Don't judge a book by its cover' What a lovely and understanding dog who sences your emotions. 🥰

Sabrina is so cute and this is a wonderful rescue story and such a wonderful mom too.

I adopted two boys from an adoption group. I miss them everyday. Dakota and Gregory❤️

She's so wonderful. So glad for you both. 😊❤

Greyhounds are like cats in some ways. They are so different from other dogs. I love their quirkiness.

Miss great Dane, is so wonderful, she would have had me laughing a lot . Blessings and love.❤

Thank you for saving this sweet baby! I think you two might be soulmates. 💕🐾🐾💕

Wonderful. 🙂 Thank you for giving Sabrina a good home. I love her silly grin. 🙂

I've had 5 greyhounds and am getting my 6th next month. I love these dogs. They're very special, sweet, funny, a little quirky, loyal.

If anyone watching this has never met a greyhound, all of Sabrina's behaviors are familiar to me. The spinning, prancing, paw-slapping and all of her other fun, goofy moves are things I've seen in my greyhounds. They can be so much fun.

She’s so adorable 🥰 That grin.

Beautiful baby ♥️♥️♥️

Greyhounds are one of the most laid back breeds! Ours was a rescue from an idiot who used him, and 39 others, to hunt coyote!! He was 8 when we adopted him. He gave us 5 1/2 years of fun, laughter and love. He didn’t have a mean bone in his body! He loved everyone (except cats)! We miss Vega dearly

She looks and acts just like our Gracie! Gracie is gone now, but the experience of having a greyhound was like no other. Very special, beautiful creatures!

Sabrina is gorgeous. Sighthounds have one thing in common.... they are the most affectionate and loving creatures on the planet.

Such beauty and personality, Sabrina has a lovely life, no wonder she wants now to relax in bed. Thanks for adopting a greyhound, she went through so much to get to you, time to end racing for good.💕🐾☮️

This is precious and I love the way she dekes and scoots!

Greyhounds are lovely and interesting dogs. So glad you found each other ❣ All the best .

The retired greyhounds are very gentle loving companions. It's fun to turn them loose outside. They go like hell for about 30 seconds then just chill out.

I have a 12 year old rescue racer. He has been with me since he was 3 years old off the track. He is pure joy and such a sweetheart. He now has some arthritis but still loves his ball and zoomies.

she is so so lovely!! what a precious little creature, big creature. Big heart!! Bless them.

She was meant to be yours. The fact that you drove so far to adopt her shows such a special part of your character - that's why you saved each other. ❤

This is sweet. The perfect role that pets play in our lives: healing, loving, supportive. You are a good human mama to this doggie.

Sabina is absolutely precious 💖 ❤❤ thank you for adopting her!

She is so sweet and delightfully happy 👍🐾🦴🥂💛

What a funny dog. I love everything about her!

Sabrina is too beautiful I'm glad you found each other and now she has her furever home too cute

She is beautiful. I had an Italian greyhound, who died when she was 13. I've never had such a broken heart.

I am so happy for you! The joyful grin of a greyhound (and similar races) is a sight to behold. Sabrina is a lovely and wonderful family member. Wishing you all the best.

Often times, animals just know. They read our hearts. It’s like they can see our auras. I am so happy that she has you and you have her.

I have adopted 10 Greyhounds over 29 years and fostered a few as well. I have 2 now and after these, my ride with them is done - my age and life now is the reason. I would not trade these past 29 years for anything. I adopted every one of them right from race tracks and they hand picked me. I love Greys, they are wonderful.

She has a beautiful smile.

Greyhounds truly are greyt!!! My family has been blessed for being able to adopt five of these sweet , gentle, retired racers over the past 20 years. 💓

dogs do indeed save you. I was so depressed when I lost my first dog. Then I decided to adopt my Luna and she indeed saved me from that pain and she's been my best friend for 11 years now.

You saved each other and she is your therapy dog! Thank you for the rescue! 🐾♥️🐾

We had a greyt hound. He was a therapy dog. He had an intuition for those that wanted and/or needed his attention when I went to visit the nursing homes and hospitals. I sure do miss that big goober.

I convinced a friend to adopt Greyhounds off the track. She is on her second one. They are sight hounds so a fenced yard works best. They run like maniacs outside then get in the house and are couch potatoes. Super sweet, everyone I've ever met!

Such a heartwarming story ❤

What a beautiful dog. I wish greyhound racing would end. These dogs deserve better.

The first greyhound I had was in the early 90s right after a painful break-up. He was the best dog ever and so gentle. I eventually adopted a female greyhound and they got along very well.

Greyhounds are so lovely. My Sarai is the sweetest dog ever. And sooo smart. There are Greyhound Rescue organizations all over the US for anyone who would like to consider adopting a retired racer (there are not many greyhounds in the world who are not racers, a very few are show dogs but VERY few). They only race - if they are fast enough - for the first 2-6 years of their lives and then they live to be 12 -15 and need homes. They are NOT super energetic - they are called the 45 mph couch potatoes because they're bred to run very fast for 2 mins and then sleep the rest of their day. I take mine for a 4 block walk once or twice a day and she's happy and fit. Every so often she gets the zoomies in my back yard, but other than that, she mostly sleeps outside my office door. You do mostly need a fenced yard, or if you live in an appt you will need to have a close place where you can walk the dog to do their business. They're generally well mannered and house trained when you get them, but may need about 2-4 months adjusting to "civilian" life. For example, they usually don't know what stairs are, and may not understand that a window is a solid substance you can't run through, until you show them. The greyhound rescue organizations also spay and neuter them, ensuring they have all their shots, etc, and often foster them (where they learn about stairs and windows) before you get them. They need homes where they live indoors and with their people, they are raised in a large group of other greyhounds and don't do well left alone for more than workday,. I could go on...anyway what a lovely video, I love my greyhound and highly recommend adoption to the right people!

We’ve had 2 greyhounds. They are like nothing else. I wish everyone could be loved by a greyhound. It’s a wondrous thing. Our current grey is 13. She has health problems and is probably in her last months of life. I will be shattered when she goes. Life won’t be the same.

🤧 aww she's so gorgeous, bless you for saving her and giving her a great forever home. So sorry you lost your other dogs, may they rest in peace 🙏 cracking good video thanks for sharing 🖤

She has my heart. Lovely family.

GOD bless those that takes care of his creatures!🐩🙏💯💖

I love watching her going crazy playing with her toy in the snow. She is joyful, and adorable I've always heard amazing things about retired greyhounds (I think it should be illegal to race them, myself). I know you'll enjoy every moment together.

Gkad you found and tescued her. She is happy with you and outgoing. True love ❤️❤️

Two speed dogs, on and off! Lovely doggies!

Greyhounds make great therapy dogs!! After I saved a greyhound, she saved met right back and I will be forever greatful for her x I will ALWAYS have a greyhound by my side they are the best!! ❤❤❤❤❤

I can see the special bond between you too. Thank you to let her in your heart and home. She taught you to never give up on love even if it means suffering for the lost ones.

Such a sweet, goofy & wonderful dog! ❤
