Southern Arizona Greyhound Adoption

Southern Arizona Greyhound Adoption is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides the opportunity to better the lives of ex-racing and rescued greyhounds by finding them loving and qualified forever homes in the Southern Arizona area.

To support this mission, SA Greys identifies caring and responsible homes; rescues sick, injured, and abandoned greyhounds; seeks to return lost greyhounds to their owners; teaches the principles of kindness and humane dog care to children and adults; promotes birth control by spaying or neutering all intake animals; provides pre-adoption health services; provides residential foster care to assist the greyhounds in becoming acclimated to a home environment.

This has been a very challenging year financially for Southern Arizona Greyhound Adoption as we have taken in several broken leg Greyhounds or Greyhounds with other injuries or illnesses. In addition to the routine vet care they get, these dogs each have easily cost anywhere from $1500 - $4000 totaling over $45,000 to ready them for adoption.Dogs like Austin, Basco and Sierra are being helped.

The routine care of getting a Greyhound from track to a loving home is $612. Our adoption fee is $250, so with each greyhound adopted - we pick up the difference of $362. Since March of 2014, there has been shortfall of $42,000. We cannot do this without your help. So, you can see, even your minimum $10 donation means a lot to us.

We appreciate that you have decided to make a difference in a retired racing Greyhound's life by donating to Southern Arizona Greyhound Adoption.
