Buffalo Greyhound Adoption at the Fair

(Angus the Giant)



Buffalo Greyhound Adoption returned to the Erie County Fair this year after a couple years absence, and so far at this point it appears to have been really successful for us. Setting up just an information booth this time and no merchandise, we had steady crowds at the booth and lots of genuine interest. Aside from the rain days that is!



The dogs did great, getting along with each other and the horses behind us just fine.

Being close to one of the entrances we had a pretty good spot except for the bunge swingie thingie. The loud music and screaming hurtling humans tried the dog's nerves at times, but they hung in there. In fact, at the Scientology booth just down the midway from us they were advertising "Free Stress Tests", and one Scientologist told me in confidence that 9 out of 10 Scientologists recommend greyhounds for effective stress relief and reduction of thetan levels. True story.


Hopefully you can look for us at the Fair again next year!

The thing I liked most about this summer was Thetan I got.
