Traveling Hounds...A Novel Fundraising Idea!

Two Pixie Hounds visit Lake Windemeer.
This is one of the biggest and most famous lakes in the north of England, and draws millions of tourists each year. Click here to check out a website describing a greyt fundraising idea for Greyhound Adoption. The lucky hounds called Hope, Arnold and Baskerville carry their own passports. They were lovingly created by Lesley P. using the Pixie Hounds Crochet Pattern.

Stuffy Helps Hounds

Linda crocheted our Life Size Greyhound and named him Stuffy. Her friend, Rob, made an awesome stand for Stuffy who was donated to Greyhound Safety Net.
Stuffy's job is to attract attention at Adoption Awareness Events. As you can see, he's doing a greyt job of attracting the attention of a cute Greyhound puppy!
Thanks Linda and Rob!!!

Not Just 4 Greyhounds

This Fisherman Style Sweater pattern was designed for Greyhounds. However, that didn't stop Angela from improvising to make the sweater fit this little Cavalier. She used baby yarn in a pretty pink and a smaller hook.

Angela enjoys crocheting for her own dogs and she also makes sweaters to donate for rescue dogs. The photos below show her beautiful variations with yarn color. She also made the sweaters fit by eliminating a few rows for dogs with shorter bodies.

In July Wyatt, our inspiration, became ill and he left us for the Rainbow Bridge in October. Our hearts are broken but we will go on to try to help other hounds needing homes.

Godspeed Wyatt. We miss you very much.
