About the Littermates’ List
This site is dedicated to finding long lost Littermates of our
beloved retired racing Greyhounds. The List began in July 2000 (& went
online May 2002), while I was trying unsuccessfully to find out if our adopted
Greyhound, MPS Gideon’s (pet name - Champion) Littermates were available for
adoption. This List includes adoptive families living throughout the United
States (from 46 States & DC) and Canada (from all 10 Provinces) Australia
(NSW), Ireland, England, Scotland, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Netherlands &
Madagascar, with ex-racers from the US, Australia, Ireland, Spain & Great
Britain.
I finally found 2 of Champion's littermates - over 5 years after the List went on-line!
If you are looking for Sires & Dams please contact us directly or go to our link above Sires & Dams Membership, fill in the form and submit. I am currently creating a page for Sires and one for Dams section which will be added to this site.
We are also fixing our Reunions pages (it's about time!) So if you have photos of reunited littermates you'd like to share send them on over.
I would like to give a special thanks to the trainers, NGA Owners and Adoption Groups who provide updates for me. I am thrilled with how much you love these greyt dogs!! Also thanks to the Greyhound Tracks/Parks that promote adoption of retired Greys.
Goal of the Littermates’
List
To find and reunite Littermates and their adoptive families.
Since Greyhound Litters are raised together for at least the first 18 months and sometimes until retirement, it stands to reason they would not easily forget each other. Unlike other breeds of dogs or cats who are only with their Littermates for the first 6 or 8 weeks of their lives. We will not be including half sibs on this web site. Although half sibs may share the same sire or dam, they are not littermates and therefore did not share infancy together.
**Please note: If you are currently
registered with the Littermates’ List, and your e-mail
address has changed recently, please e-mail your new address to vickygates_1@msn.com to ensure we are
able to contact you should we find a littermate of your pup! THIS IS THE ONLY THING WE ASK
OF YOU AFTER REGISTRATION!
