Cash our retired racing greyhoundMy parents adopted an ex-racing greyhound ten years ago and I instantly fell in love. You too can help save a retired greyhound from euthanasia by rescuing one from the many dog rescues around the globe.

Once people realized that greyhounds are the kindest, gentlest and most friendly dog, they became popular as pets. I can’t go anywhere without meeting someone who has had the great pleasure of owning one of these amazing dogs.

They are big, but they are couch potatoes as well, and love people, even little ones. As long has you have a yard or can walk them a few times a day, you can adopt a greyhound. These leggy guys love to run!

We adopted our greyhound, Cash, from the National Greyhound Adoption Program in Philadelphia, PA, but if you don’t live in Philly you can check out this website to find a greyhound rescue near you.
