About our Logo
Our double flowing greyhound logo was designed by commission by artist Jesse E. Christensen of Maple Valley, Washington. We wanted our logo to show not only the strength and speed of a greyhound but also their graceful spirit. We feel that he captured the heart of a retired racer in the logo design. Mr. Christensen designed our logo free of charge, donating both his time and talent to GPALV
