I have been volunteering for Greyhound rescue for 4 years and I am the Borzoi representative for my local Purebred dog rescue organization as well. My Greyhound, Borzoi and Afghan are all rescues. I find Sighthound rescue to be incredibly rewarding and I have no intentions of slowing down my efforts in this area. I hope to one day own my own boarding and grooming kennel!

Location: Jackson, MI
Dan Gauss, shown here with his 10 year old Danny Whippet and his 3 year old Deerhound Randir, (and yes, that would make him Mr. Burns' brother), on a recent tick collecting expedition at the Oatlands Plantation in Leesburg, VA. Dan is a professional Sighthound Performance Imaging Specialist... (he takes pictures of running dogs). He currently lives in Jackson, Michigan but will eventually be pulling up stakes in favor of living the nomadic lifestyle, photographing the beauty of the American West, (yeah, like it's never been done before- sure), and chasing the jackrabbits. Losing some weight may also be a side benefit of this grand quest, as he expects to be the starving artist.. His favorite quote? "You ought'a get that enlarged... that would be a great enlargement!!"
