My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, there, my name is Scooby. I am a shy boy, but I'm working on building my confidence. I think a home with someone who understands that I need time and patience to slowly warm up to them would be the best for me. I know I will be a great family member, I would need someone who is an experienced dog owner to help guide me through the rest of my life in my new home.

I like other dogs and play well with them, especially if they don’t mind roughhousing. I am always showing off my toys in my kennel to the staff. Sometimes when they come by, I like to just hold it in my mouth to show them that I am proud of my toys!

More about this rescue

Fast Friends is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to educating the public about Greyhounds and sighthounds from around the world with the primary goal of finding responsible, loving homes for them. Fast Friends envisions a world where no Greyhound or sighthound lacks for a loving home and these breeds are valued and celebrated for their uniqueness.

Fast Friends works closely with both international and domestic partners to bring retired racing Greyhounds and other sighthounds in need from countries where they have almost no chance of a local adoption to its facility in Swanzey, New Hampshire. Each dog receives high quality care with a focus on one-on-one staff time and individualized plans to help them overcome any neglect or trauma they have experienced so that they can be successful in a home. We are dedicated to taking in dogs with the most challenging circumstances.
