All puppies must show proof of 2 sets of vaccinations.

Socialization is key during a puppy's development, but it's so hard to find other dogs in their age group outside of formal puppy socialization classes. This group was created so Boston-area puppy owners can get together with their young pups (and young children too!) to make sure that our puppies will grow up to be well-adjusted and comfortable in a variety of social situations. We can meet in local parks, or even member's yards, depending on who's interested.... It'll be fun!

And we can make new friends -- greyhound and human alike. Please note: This group is meant for greyhounds and their humans only, as greys typically get nervous around other dog breeds. We'll stick to walking in parks where the terrain isn't so bad until the winter thaws out a bit! Be sure to check out t …
