New Video Promoting Greyhound Adoption

Greyhound Friends of Augusta (Georgia) posted a link from their site to a song called "The Race" by Matt Dahan.  Matt wrote the song for his family's two adopted greyhounds.  After listening to the song, group volunteer, Alan Jackson purchased it, wrote out the lyrics, timed the song and scoured the internet looking for appropriate photos to make a slideshow video.  After viewing the video, Matt gave Alan permission to use it to promote greyhound adoption.  You may view it on YouTube.

Our Dogs

SGC transitions each greyhound from the track into a boarding kennel and then into a permanent home. The Golden Bone Pet Resort donates a limited number of rooms for the greyhounds that enter our program.   In very rare cases, SCG may use a foster home for special needs greyhounds.  No matter how your greyhound is transitioned, it will make a "greyt" pet.  Here are some of the things that we have discovered through using these boarding kennels.

1. At the boarding kennel, there are trained personnel to watch the greyhound recover after recent spay or neuter surgery or other medical treatments. They also assist with helping the greyhound adjust to a new diet.

2. Greyhounds move into a "forever" home when they are adopted, rather than transitioning from a foster home. The greyhound's first bonding experience will be in the home with the person(s) who adopted him/her.

3. Using a boarding facility can provide adopters with flexibility to schedule a visit with the greyhounds Monday through Saturday with a SCG volunteer.

The dogs below are available for adoption.  Please contact us at info@steelcitygreyhounds.org

You are ALWAYS welcome to call The Golden Bone Pet Resort about any available hound in our program.  The staff at The Golden Bone Pet Resort enjoys caring for each hound while they transition into a new forever home and they are experts with the greyhound as a breed.  The Golden Bone Pet Resort is proud to sponsor and facilitate the adoptions of every retired racer that enters the SCG program.  Volunteers are also permitted to walk any available hound seven days a week 365 days a year!  The Golden Bone Pet Resort is proud to be the sole headquarters of SCG and our partnership with them has helped over 350 greyhounds find new homes since 2002! 

Casper

"Casper" is all white with light grey "freckles."  He was born in September 2007.  This boy has a lot of spunk.  He is not cat compatible.  He is lively and would do well in an active home.  He would probably make a greyt daily walking or jogging companion!  This boy is quite comical!
