Greyhound Pets of America LA & MS

A nonprofit organization

GPA is a nationwide organization of all volunteers dedicated to finding responsible, loving homes for professional racing greyhounds who no longer qualify to compete at the racetrack. We also rehome any greyhounds that are sent to animal shelters across Louisiana and Mississippi.

GPA brings retired racers into our program to show the public what wonderful pets they make. We also take returned greyhounds from any source into our program to rehome the dogs after we pay veterinary costs needed to get them adopted. We are raising money to spay and neuter all the dogs that now come from the greyhound farms in Kansas since all the Florida dog tracks have closed permanently. Most all greyhounds coming into our program are from greyhound farms now. We are also transporting Irish and Austrailian greyhounds to Louisiana since most US tracks are closed so funds are needed for this expense also.

Testimonials

We are madly in love with our adopted greyhound who has adapted so well into our family. He is our first greyhound and is a wonderful pet. Thank you GPA La. & Ms.! June Scott

I am a repeat greyhound owner who has adopted from GPA in the past and currently have a greyhound from this wonderful group who loves the dogs and will do what it takes to give them a loving permanent home. They match up the dog with the family so it is a perfect fit! Thank you GPA! Rebecca Lovingood
