How You Can Help Retired Greyhounds

Welcome to Greyt Angels Inc., a devoted greyhound organization based in Goshen, Indiana. We are dedicated to the retirement, rehabilitation, and rehoming of greyhounds and sighthounds, focusing particularly on racing greyhounds. If you are considering expanding your family with a pet, why not choose a loving, gentle greyhound through adoption or fostering?

Why Choose a Retired Racing Greyhound?

Retired racing greyhounds are known for their gentle and affectionate nature, making them ideal family pets. Despite their history on the racetrack, these dogs are surprisingly low-maintenance and are just as content lounging around the home as they are stretching their legs in a sprint. Their calm demeanor and loving presence make them perfect companions for individuals and families alike.

Foster Program Details

If you're not ready to adopt but still want to help, consider becoming a foster parent. Fostering a greyhound provides a vital bridge between their past lives on the track and their future forever homes. As a foster parent, you'll help a greyhound decompress, learn house rules, and prepare for family life. We provide full support:

  • Support: We provide all necessary supplies, including food, medical care, and equipment.
  • Training and Resources: Access to training materials and workshops to help address any behavioral needs.
  • 24/7 Assistance: Our dedicated team offers around-the-clock support to ensure you have the help you need.

Fostering is not only rewarding but also gives you a firsthand experience with greyhounds, helping you decide if adoption is right for you in the future.
