Hi there - my name is Jen, and my partner Daniel and I are off to GRA this weekend to check out the puppies and hopefully pick one out to take home soon!
We live in Toronto, and we may occasionally want to use the services of a dog walker. Does anyone know of any grey-knowledgeable dog walkers in the Toronto area?
Thanks!

Can't help with the dog walking search, but enjoy your trip to see the pups at GRA!

I looked into it awhile back. I didn't find any geared especially for greyhounds, but the ones I did find were very pricey.
Where about in Toronto do you live?

'Unleashed In the City' have been walking our two greys for a year and a half. www.unleashedinthecity.com/contact.html Although they are not grey specific I highly recommend them and their services. We live in the West End close to High Park but they may provide services elsewhere in the city as well. Good Luck. On another note when it warms up we are hoping to get some greys and their owners out for walks in the park. I'll be posting about it. J and I were at GRA on Sunday morning to help with turnout and Dixie was an absolute dream girl. SO SWEET. I wanted to take her home myself!!

We are at Dufferin and Eglinton. I would prefer someone who could walk Dixie individually and not one of those group-walk things. I don't think we want to rely on this permanently, but it may be necessary in the first few weeks/months as we both work full time, and my boyfriend can come home at lunch but not every day. Thanks for the tip jason! If we need someone to come in I may give them a call. Dixie is certainly a honey, I'm so glad she picked us

Our two pups are taken out on a walk by themselves. Our boy Jack does not do well with other dogs so 'Unleashed' does offer individual walks. Good luck.
