Our Available hounds
Update September 2024. GreySave worked with Fast Friends and Operation Greyhound to remove the last 150 greyhounds from the Caliente track located in Tijuana, after racing ended on July 14, 2024. All of the dogs that we have brought in have been adopted.
We will be taking in and processing a limited number of applications as we get a handful of greyhounds from a local shelter or as a bounce back when someone passes or has significant family changes. We do give priority to our current adopters and prior greyhound adopters from other groups but we still do place greyhounds with people with medium to large dog experience and a loving heart. . GreySave, like most greyhound adoption groups, has a policy of not adopting to families with children 6 years-old or younger. For more information on young children and greyhounds, see the articles at http://www.greysave.org/children--greys.html If you are interested in adopting a greyhound, complete the adoption application and an adoption representative will be in touch regarding the process.

Rainy days was his name on the track, now called Randy, he is anything but a rainy day. This big sweet boy is a ray sunshine! He is a beautiful fawn color, stands tall, and is about 76 pounds. All he wants is love and pets! He is highly food motivated and a great eater! He gets along very well with our other big male greyhound. He seems interested in squirrels but, so far, just wants to watch them. He is a great walker on the leash, doesn’t pull at all.

Marina is a sweet, loving girl. She is one of the last greyhounds from the track. She is still learning what retirement is (what are toys? what is this command?).

Cinder - On Medical Hold
Racing Name: Slatex Inferno
Age: 5 Sex: M Color: Black
Homecoming Ht: Wt:
Medium dog - TBD, Small dog - TBD, Cat tolerant -TBD
Five year old Cinder is a cute, petite, and very affectionate girl who would love to be someone's life long friend. She loves being close to her people and will often check on you to make sure you know she's there for you. Cinder has easily adjusted to life in a home with two other greyhounds who are teaching her the joys of being a pet. She is smart, well mannered, and has a strong desire to be close enough for a quick cuddle. The saying "Stuck Like Glue" definitely applies to Cinder. She is mom's constant shadow. Cinder would probably do well with another dog in the household to keep her company.

Explanation of the Med dog/Small dog/Cat Tolerance Listings
Nearly all greyhounds get along very well with dogs of medium size or larger, regardless of breed. But some do not get along with small, we mean very small dogs or cats. In the dog & cat tolerant listings above, the first letter refers to how we think the greyhound would do with medium sized dog, then small dogs and the third as to how we think they would do with cats. The listings above for the small dogs and cats are for the most part are based on how the greyhound tested when he first came off the track. Some listings have been adjusted as we've seen how he has done in his foster home. The medium dog listing is based on the greyhound's experience while they are in a foster home.
An "N" for small dogs and cats listing above means that, in our judgment, this dog is not suited to live with either small dogs (under 15 or 20 pounds) or a cats. A "W" listing in either category means that the greyhound, with proper training and supervision such as an experienced greyhound adopter could provide, could learn to live with small dogs or cats. A "Y" listing means that the greyhound with proper supervision initially should adapt quickly to life with your small dogs and cats. Quite a few of our dogs have lived in foster homes with indoor cats and because they have special credentials we reserve these hounds for families with cats. We don't test for tolerance for outside cats since all bets are off if a normally inside cat ran by a greyhound who has been trained to chase. A "TBD" listing usually means that the dog has not yet been tested.
