Greyhounds As Companions, Inc.

We are a small 501C3 organization, formed to rescue and find permanent homes for retired racing greyhounds. Thousands of these wonderful dogs are retired from racing every year and need to be taken from the race industry and find new homes. We are in existence since 1994, and have IRS tax exempt status. We do not have an adoption kennel, all adoptable greyhounds reside in foster homes awaiting adoption. They can be seen at our events, or by private appointment with foster homes.
