From our kennel and hearts...
...To your couch and heart
GGA is a small National Greyhound Association responsible and endorsed pro-racing adoption group. We are also recognized by the World Greyhound Organisation. Located in Orillia, Ontario, we specialize in private adoptions and rehab/behavioural referrals. Many of our retirees are greyhounds that we personally know, have been whelped, raised, trained and raced in the kennels of our friends, and are owned by our friends. We do not make placements with a laissez-faire attitude. We want our greyhounds to thrive in retirement as professional pets just as they thrived as a professional athlete.
At GGA, we want to clarify that we do NOT rescue greyhounds. Retired racing greyhounds need not be rescued, and no reputable greyhound adoption group will rescue them either. We believe in the value and potential of these retired athletes, and our mission is to find them loving homes where they can continue to thrive. If greyhound racing and the racing industry are not your jam, we ask that you respect our views and perhaps look for another breed to adopt.
