Greyhound Adoption of Ohio
Adoption Policy
If you're interested in adopting a former racing greyhound, please fill out the application on this site and forward it to us. (Filling out an application is not an obligation to adopt.) You'll then be contacted to arrange your initial interview visit, to talk with us and to obtain some additional information. We ask anyone interested in adopting to read the book, Retired Racing Greyhounds for Dummies. This is, overall, a very good primer about adopting a greyhound. If you have children under the age of 10, we ask you to read Childproofing Your Dog, by Brian Kilcommons, in preparation for adoption.
It is our duty to ensure that you get a healthy, loving greyhound and that the greyhound gets a good home with people that will take care of him or her. We strive to match each of our wonderful animals with the wonderful family the dog is best suited for because we want everyone to be happy. A greyhound isn't a good fit for every family so we help you determine this during our in-person interview at our kennel.
There is a greater demand for retired racers than we are able to meet. We ask for your patience and understanding while waiting to schedule your interview.
