How Do You Adopt A Retired Racing Greyhound?
Many people are aware that retired racing Greyhounds are available for adoption. But what most people don’t realize is that retired Greyhounds, although they can become wonderful pets, need to be somewhat reborn. Racing Greyhounds are generally retired at two years of age and have spent their entire lives at a race track. They are not used to common daily sites and sounds that other dogs get familiar with at an early age. So retired Greyhounds need special parents who are willing to take the extra steps needed to give these loving dogs a safe and secure home. DO YOUR HOMEWORK — If you think you might like to adopt a retired racing Greyhound you should do your homework and get to know all there is to know about the actual adoption process and what to expect when you bring your new dog home. There are several highly respected organizations that will give you all the information you need to know if a retired racing Greyhound is the right addition for you and your family. CONTACT A GREYHO
