Greyhounds are not the breed for every family and we want to determine what is best for your family and the dog prior to completing any adoption. Should a placement not work out, all dogs must be returned to GPA-Wisconsin.

For the occasional Greyhound that ends up in a shelter, we have paid any required fees.
