What happens to greyhounds when they retire from racing?
Many hundreds of owners and trainers take their retired runners into their own homes after their racing careers are over and many are retired to Ireland for breeding. Some are found new homes privately and some are found homes by the Retired Greyhound Trust (RGT). Most of the 29 NGRC licensed tracks have their own retired greyhound homing schemes. The primary responsibility for the retired greyhound is with its owner.
