Customer Reviews
I have had incredibly positive interactions and the dogs I've adopted from here have been cared for and loved. They care about the plight of international dogs like Lurchers, Galgos and Podencos as well.
I've been a volunteer on and off since 2010 and am now a board member. I've adopted 5 greyhounds from this rescue over the years and have had a great experience every time. The kennel has been recently updated and new leadership is in place. The living conditions for the dogs are excellent. I am proud to serve this organization and look forward to many more years of helping dogs to find the loving homes that they deserve.
My family has adopted 4 greyhounds from Greyhound Friends over the past 18 years. We love that GHF takes the time to get to know us, know our normal daily routine, know what type of environment we would be bringing a dog home to before they even let us talk about what, if any, dog would be a good fit for our family. When we adopted our first greyhound, Hope, they made it easy for us to know what we needed to tell our vet. All her paperwork came in a folder and they also went over it all with us before we left. We also received a handful of follow up phone calls from Greyhound Friends after we brought Hope home to make sure everything was going well and to see if we had any questions. It was such a WONDERFUL experience that after we lost Hope we went back and have adopted 3 more from Greyho
We've been adopting from Greyhound Friends for nine years and have brought home three wonderful greys. We've also volunteered there and visit the kennel regularly. Louise has a special knack for matching adopters with the right dog for them and isn't afraid to turn away those who she feels cannot give the dogs the best life possible. There is a passionate network of staff, volunteers, and adopters providing great care for the dogs and we've received ongoing support after adoption as well. We look forward to adopting many more dogs from Greyhound Friends and continuing to support their rescue efforts.
While there is a kennel very close to my house, I have been adopting from Greyhound Friends for 28 years because I trust them more. Any time I have adopted or fostered a dog, they have always been will to take it back if there was an issue. This is not true of all rescues and for my money, is proof that the welfare of the dogs is their prime concern. I have also fostered many dogs from Greyhound Friends. They have been around for many, many years and have done groundbreaking work. They have a nice kennel and have adopted out thousands of dogs. I have adopted dogs that were perfect as pets. I have also adopted two dogs that were for an advanced owner because of behavioral issues and at risk to be in the kennel for a long time. One was so shy he would lose control of his bowels public.
