Relax and spend
some quality time with your hound(s). Come chat with fellow Greyhound
owners
while your pups enjoy an indoor romp with their peers! Mingle with fellow
hounds and their humans indoors, away from the elements.
If you know of anyone
who is interested in adoption, this is the perfect introduction to
the Greyhound breed. They will get to see the many colors,
ages, shapes & sizes
- not to mention personalities – of this breed. Meet & Greet volunteers
are welcome to send us potential adopters! Our dogs love the attention, and
what owner doesn’t love to show off his/her hound?
Due to the
high volume of response we have changed the R.S.V.P. format in an
effort
to be as fair as possible to participants. Last year we
had too many
people who signed up in advance, only to forget or not show up. This is a fund-raiser
for G.O. and although we can’t exceed the 30 dog limit, we would like to
accommodate those who want to attend. This year we will have a ten day “window” to
sign up; ten days before the actual Play Group date (and not before) we will
be taking reservations – until we have reached the 30 dog limit. Walk-ins
will still be allowed IF there is room – but space will be less likely
if the 30 dog limit was reached by R.S.V. P. Thank you in advance for your
patience, we hope this works!
Cost: $8.00 a dog

Those who have RSVP'd will be allowed in first. Please call/e-mail ahead in case we have reached our limit if you did not RSVP. And please tell us if you must cancel, so we can give the other hound(s) the chance to socialize with their friends, too!
DA RULES:
- All
dogs must be muzzled in the playing areas. PLEASE remember to bring
your dog's muzzle. If you don't have a muzzle you
may purchase one
from G.O. at Windy City for $14.00.
- Take your hound(s)
to the potty pen before entering. A mid-playgroup potty break is
also a greyt idea.
- Keep an eye on
your hound(s) during the hour. Younger/older ones may need several
potty breaks. Paper towels and clean-up
materials
are available for you to
clean up your hound(s) accidents.
- Please try to
bring exact change, if possible.
- Bring your friends
and their favorite Greyhounds. They need not be a G.O. member (just
Greyhounds!).
- We reserve the
right to expel or refuse any dog due to excessive growling or aggressiveness.
Thank
You For Making This A Successful Fundraiser For G.O., And For Your
Cooperation In Keeping The Play Groups Clean & Safe!!!
