Mission Statement
We strive to find loving forever homes for retired Greyhounds and to work to educate the public about the breed as well as the life that the greyhounds live as "professional athletes." Our kennels are very loving and thoughtful to their dogs and we work hard to undo some of the unpopular beliefs about the racing kennels.
