Pawcation
At Gillian's Greyhound Adoption (GGA),At GGA, we are committed to supporting you and your greyhound. That’s why GGA is pleased to offer "Pawcation," a service designed to give you peace of mind when you need to travel—whether for a vacation, a work trip, or family matters. This service is exclusively available to GGA adopters to ensure that we can provide the best care and support for our greyhound family.
How Pawcations Work:
- GGA Availability: Check the blackout dates listed below to ensure GGA is open.
- Request: Complete the "Pawcation Request and Liability" form, found below.
- Wait for Confirmation: We will confirm via email if GGA can accommodate your greyhound(s) during your requested dates.
- Drop-off & Pick-up: Please respect GGA’s personal and professional spaces by pre-arranging drop-off and pick-up times, parking in designated areas, and being mindful of neighbours.
- Donation-Based Service: There is no fixed fee for Pawcation, but as a not-for-profit, we rely on your donations. Please consider the typical cost of boarding when making your contribution. Our goal is to ensure your hound’s well-being and to provide peace of mind during your travels.
- Sit back, relax and enjoy your vacation knowing your greyhound is enjoying their pawcation in an environment they are familiar with and with GGA Staffers tending to their every need.
Greyhound ownership is a unique and fulfilling experience, and we are here to support you every step of the way. Thank you for being part of the GGA family!
