Fast Friends Greyhound Adoption Center
Our Mission
Fast Friends is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to educating the public about Greyhounds and sighthounds from around the world with the primary goal of finding responsible, loving homes for them. Fast Friends envisions a world where no Greyhound or sighthound lacks for a loving home and these breeds are valued and celebrated for their uniqueness.
Fast Friends works closely with both international and domestic partners to bring retired racing Greyhounds and other sighthounds in need from countries where they have almost no chance of a local adoption to its facility in Swanzey, New Hampshire. Each dog receives high quality care with a focus on one-on-one staff time and individualized plans to help them overcome any neglect or trauma they have experienced so that they can be successful in a home. We are dedicated to taking in dogs with the most challenging circumstances.
Adoption Policy
Once we review your completed application, we will contact you to for a phone interview. The interview gives us an opportunity to fully explain the nature of sighthounds and get to know you and what you're looking for in a companion.
Then, Fast Friends will help you choose the dog who is the best fit for your household and lifestyle. We have approximately 40 greyhounds and other dogs available at any time, both boys and girls.
Once you have selected a dog to join your family, a representative from Fast Friends will come out to your home and go over training solutions for helping your dog become fully house-trained, learn to navigate stairs, and more.
