Meet The Team

Sunny wanted to call us two fat b*tches and a skinny dog but his humans objected so we opted for Team Greyt Adventures.

Most of the info on our site is based on our personal experience of being owned by retired racing Greyhounds since 2011.

We know what's true for us may not be true for you so we're always open to different ideas and points of view.

We're also happy to do the research or chat to our houndie people if we don't know the answers.

So, who are these fat b*tches humans?

About The Greyhounds

Sunny's Pawtobiography

My name is Sunny van Hegelwyk. My racing name was Calzaghe Sonybil, try saying that with a big juicy bone in your mouth. Ohhh, bones :)

 I inherited Mama and The Jellyfish from my big bro, Yogi, and I'm really enjoying my adventures with them.

I do love going on outings with my Two-Legses in the car.

Horse watching. Me on car outing to the horse field.

I do love me a good swim. Moose the Newfi is the best swimmer. He makes me look like an amateur, pfft.

Trying my luck in the sea. Do you think I can go in the deep end?

I'll be seeing lots of exciting new things on my greyt adventures. I do hope you'll keep checking back to see what I'm up too.

Yogi's Pawtobiography

My name is Yogi Berra van Hegelwyk and I used to be a racing greyhound. I’m still a greyhound, but I don’t race any more.

Now, if you read that bit down there ▼ about my brother, Radley, then you will know he had Mom and Mom-Too. Well, me? I have Mama…

…cuz she loves me, and feeds me, and takes me to the park, and lets me sleep in her room.

And The Jellyfish…

…cuz she’s always in the water.

And cuz what’s that on her head? At first I thought it was an octopus but it has more than eight tentacles. Yup, jellyfish.

I have many greyt adventures. Check me out learning to surf.

Radley's Pawtobiography

My name is Radley Armstrong van Hegelwyk and I’m a retired racing greyhound.

Does that sound too much like a twelve step programme introduction? Mom says it does, but I don’t know what she’s talking about so I’m not changing it.

I wanted to tell you my racing name but Mom’s so paranoid she thinks I’ll get tracked down and shot by some deranged lunatic who lost money on me at the bookies. (Psst, it's Hammy's Bluesboy).

Mom-Too thinks Mom is the deranged one, but I think she’s okay most of the time.

My crazy mixed up family

I have two moms, Mom and Mom-Too. Mom-Too used to be called Auntie but then things got complicated. Mom started looking after Great Granny-Too (I have two of those too) so I live with Mom-Too now, but I spend some of the day with Mom too as well.

I also have two dads. Dad went over the rainbow bridge to be with the cats, and Dad-Too is living on a beach in South Africa. 

Mom says he actually lives in a house, but I’ve seen the photos and he’s always on the beach! I want to go and see him but Mom says I’ll melt in the sun, or go batpoo on a snake and get myself killed. Anyway, sometimes we get to talk to Dad-Too on that thing the moms point at me to take my picture.

My other aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents are in South Africa where there are scary things like snakes and sun, so you won’t be meeting them.

My Greyt Adventures

I’ve been to the beach,

and to the forest,

and in the town,

and through the wildwoods,

and down to the water.

I’ve had a picnic at the pub,

and I’ve even been shopping!

PS: This is the last person who spammed Mom’s website so don’t go doing it on Greyt Adventures.

Sadly Radley, Yogi, Grandad Coleby, Great Granny and Vryheid the car are no longer with us, but we know they share our greyt adventures in spirit.
