When you have a few barcodes collected please give\send them
to Pat,

How else can
you help?
If you never
use the muzzle you were provided with when you took your
Greyhound home, please send or pass them to us.

Welcome to the Greyhoundhomer RGT website!
We hope you enjoy your visit and you find this a useful
and informative website. Staff at Greyhoundhomer RGT have been homing retired racing Greyhounds
since 2006 and have homed over 1000 dogs since starting
up. Greyhounds make truly wonderful pets, and many who
take on a Greyhound find the experience so fulfilling
that they soon find themselves drawn to a second dog.
Greyhounds are loyal, friendly, funny, affectionate, gentle, quiet, clean,
loving, sensitive, trusting, good natured and generally very lazy! To
the right of this text you can see a
slideshow featuring some of the dogs we've
homed this year.
Like all homing organisations
Greyhoundhomer has it's fair share of older
girls & boys looking for homes and a number
of dogs who for some reason have been with
us a long while. So if you're looking to
take on a hound please don't overlook some
of our older or long term residents! With
winter upon us it's hard on our older and
longer term residents who will have been
through their fair share of winters from a
kennel, please take a look below at some of
our older and longer term residents.
Greyhounds can live to between 13 and 15
years old and therefore even an older dog
should have plenty of good times ahead with
you.
