The area surrounding Abilene, Kansas is known as the Greyhound Capital
of the the world. It is the home of the Greyhound Hall of Fame and the
National Greyhound Association. It is a wonderful place to learn about
the history of the breed and how greyhounds evolved from chasing rabbits
through the fields to trying to catch the elusive bunny on an oval
track, thrilling thousands of visitors with their beauty and speed.
Join us and learn about your greyhound's life before they became a
member of your family. We will vists farms, meet stud dogs, and hold
puppies to our hearts' content, as well as learning how they are trained
to race. Capping off the weekend, we will have live racing of future
professional racers.
We are excited to host the first Halfway Home Greyhound Adoption
Abilene Gathering at the Greyhound Hall of Fame June 7-10,
2012!
