GGA generally takes in retired racing greyhounds that are a little "extra". These special hounds generally need more support while transitioning from working dog to pet. GGA adopters are special people that are willing to put the time and effort into supporting this transition. Our adopters are not ones that open the door, drop the leash and let their new addition hop up on the furniture and do as they please. They understand that in order to create a solid foundation they must provide guidance, leadership and structure, and they know that by doing so they will create a stronger bond with their hound. GGA has retirees that require adopters that meet the following criteria: • Mature, responsible adults (and children if applicable). • Prior greyhound/dog experience preferred. • Prior greyhound/dog training experience is an asset. • In lieu of training experience, good communication skills and ability to follow instructions, especially GGA's hound specific going home protocol. • Willing to work with GGA if after care is required or if having difficulties. • Home without cat(s) is a must. • Home without off-breed dog(s) is preferred. If other dogs in residence they must be well balanced and preferably not small-medium in size. • Must be located within Ontario Canada If you are looking to adopt and fit this criteria please send us an email ggreyhoundadoptions@gmail.com to begin the adoption process.
