Every year 10,000 racing greyhounds become unwanted as they are either to old to race at the age of about 4 or they have something wrong with them like artiritis after being raced too much or they just havent been doing well recently but whatever the reason the owners want new homes for them or it is off to the vet and the dog is put down. want to help? go to www.retiredgreyhounds.co.uk to find out about adopting or just more information they are gentle and kid dogs that are great with children please if you can give one a new happy loving home!
These dogs are very wonderful family pets.They are very docile and calm, despite being the fastest dog breed! They are content to lie on the couch with you!! Unfortunatly "mans best friend" is being exploited. I am with a rescue organization here in Atlantic Canada.We rescue ex-racers from the USA and place them into loving and responsible adoptive homes! If you live in Atlantic Canada and want to help one of these beautiful dogs, please contact GPAC (Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada)... http://www.gpac.ca
