Greyhound Rescue and Rehabilitation


Greyhound Rescue & Rehabilitation (GRR) is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit adoption/placement organization founded in May 2000. Every day, in all parts of the country, racing greyhounds are being retired due to injury, illness or just for being too slow, often by a split second. GRR helps as often as we can, and we’re thrilled that over 1100 greyhounds have become part of the GRR family. Our organization is comprised of volunteers, dedicated to raising public awareness about the ex-racing Greyhound; their gentle & loving nature, wonderful disposition and suitability as pets and companions. Our geographic focus is Westchester, Putnam, Duchess, Rockland, Orange and Ulster Counties, NY and Fairfield County and Litchfield County, CT. With the help of foster families, we acclimate the dogs to a home environment and prepare them for adoption. We find suitable and loving homes where the Greyhounds will be members of the family, and provide our adopting families with support and assistance as needed.

It's easy to help - just visit our Etsy shop and purchase anything during the month of March.  Please visit our website for more information: http://www.handmade4hounds.com
