How to get your pet...

ONLINE APPLICATION

All of our greyhounds are temperament tested, which means we check compatibility with kids, cats and other critters. We also look at the dogs activity level and sociability factors.

All of our potential adopters are screened and must be approved prior to adopting one of our beloved greyhounds. Every applicant is required to fill out an application. Someone will contact you within 24-48 hours to answer any questions you may have and briefly interview you.

After compiling information from you, the adopter, and comparing it to the list of available dogs in our facility, you will be introduced to several dogs that match your criteria. This is one of the best ways to assure a proper fit for the needs of the dog and your family.

It is best if you fill out the application and mail or email it to us approximately 1 week before coming to our kennel. This will allow you pre-approval and the opportunity to take your new friend home with you the very day you meet them. No need to make a second trip!

Our suggested adoption donation schedule is:

$285 for dogs up to 6 years of age 
$235 for dogs 6-8 years of age
$175 for dogs 9 years and over

We require a deposit to place dogs on hold. The balance is due when the adoption is finalized.
 

After adopting: If with-in the first 14 days you feel the dog is not going to work out for your family then we ask that you either try another dog or return the dog for a refund minus the $50 deposit fee. Adoptions are considered final after 14 days and no refunds will be given.
