greyhound sponsorship

Can't adopt a greyhound right now? Why not sponsor one of our adoptable hounds!

The Greyhounds Only adoption fee of $225 only partially covers the medical expenses for the average dog, and our special needs hounds are far more costly. The difference in funds must be raised through fundraising events, grants, and corporate matching gifts and through the kindness of sponsors like yourself.  You can help the organization by contributing towards the expenses for a kennel dog from the time he or she comes into our program to the time the dog leaves for its loving home.  

A contribution of $100.00 is classified as an "Alpha Sponsor”. A contribution of $50 is considered a Beta Sponsor and a contribution of $25 is considered an Omega Sponsor. Any amount is welcome and immensely appreciated. Want to donate more? Then sponsor multiple hounds!

Below is a list of the items associated with each adoptable hound.

  • Kenneling
  • Microchip Purchase
  • Microchip Insertion
  • Food
  • Heartworm Preventative
  • Flea Preventative
  • Heartworm Test
  • Necessary Vaccinations: Rabies Shots & DHLPP
  • Dental & post dental antibiotics
  • Spay or Neuter

As of September, 2008, for each dog that goes through the Greyhounds Only adoption program, Greyhounds Only pays an average cost of $761. Every contribution you make whether $5 or $500 helps a greyhound on his or her journey from the racetrack or farm to a forever home.

We don't know how long your sponsored hound will be with us - so whether he or she is adopted in a week or in six months, please know that the money you donate towards sponsoring an adoptable greyhound goes directly to our available hounds.

Please note the name of the hound you'd like to sponsor when you donate so we can acknowledge your sponsorship. Thank you so much for your support!
